Wire the built-but-unwired codebase index (node/src/services/index-service.mjs, BM25+RRF+optional dense embeddings, git-aware, /api/index/reindex + /api/index/search already routed) into the actual chat path so every model answer is grounded in the operator's real workspace — retrieval injection in model-router/chat, an @codebase context tool, embed-function supply via the local engine, index freshness on file change, token-budgeted context packs. Use whenever model answers ignore workspace…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Context Retrieval Wiring — Ground Every Answer in the Real Workspace
Born 2026-08-27 gap analysis: AIDE already SHIPS a hybrid retrieval engine
(index-service.mjs: chunkFile, BM25 sparse, dense cosine, RRF fuse, git-branch
aware, incremental reindex, persist/restore from disk) with HTTP routes
(/api/index/reindex, /api/index/search) — and NOTHING in the chat path calls
it. `rg hybridSearch model-router.ts chat.ts orchestrator.mjs` = zero hits.
Rivals (Cursor secure codebase indexing 2026, VS Code workspace context) treat
this as THE differentiator. Also: no embed function is ever supplied
(openapi.ts `indexEmbedFn ?? null`), so the index runs in permanently
"degraded" BM25-only mode.
## Research base (verified 2026-08-27)
1. Cursor ships "secure codebase indexing" + "semantic search" as marquee
features (cursor.com, changelog 2026); VS Code ships "workspace context" +
"add prompt context" as first-class agent concepts (VS Code agents docs,
retrieved 2026-08-27).
2. In-repo engine ALREADY implements hybrid retrieval correctly: BM25 sparse +
dense cosine candidates → RRF fuse (k=20, 50 per list) → {path, line,

How to install
mdr add anonymousnomad/aide-sovereign-workbench/aide-context-retrieval-wiring@sha256:e96320b33baed4c4The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260828.ba41dd3, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
