GitHits

GitHits is an infrastructure layer that connects coding agents to the open source ecosystem. It maintains a version aware index of public code, documentation and package data, and exposes it through a single interface so an agent can resolve a dependency, search it, read it at the exact version in use and compare it across releases. A query identifies a package, repository, version or git ref, and for a fixed version the service maps that to a source commit and returns the code and documentation attached to it. Access is through MCP, a command line interface or an API, which means an agent can reach it from the coding tool a team already runs. The tool set is deliberately deterministic and paginated: resolve a name to ranked canonical targets, search by keyword or API name, grep for exact text or a regular expression scoped by path, glob or file extension, list indexed files, read a file, a line range or a symbol by selector, and diff changes between versions or refs. Results carry the package version, repository and source location, plus file, line range, enclosing symbol and a matched snippet. The same operations work across documentation sites. Typical uses are evaluating a candidate library against its metadata, license, known vulnerabilities and dependencies, checking an API signature at the release an application actually pins, and debugging unexpected dependency behavior. It complements rather than replaces an agent's access to private code. GitHits does not publish pricing. There is no pricing page and the usual plan and billing paths return nothing, so terms are established by going to the app or booking a demo. The product began as a question in a Slack channel at Softlandia Venture Studio, and a co founder registered the domain for $9.
