# Sourcegraph — tools that shaped CodeVetter

> Canonical page: https://codevetter.com/inspiration/sourcegraph

Finding the right code is a first-class engineering workflow.

## What we admire

Sourcegraph made large-scale code search and navigation a product in their own right. Its search grammar, symbol navigation, and cross-repository perspective are useful reminders that context begins with locating the right source.

## The principle that stayed

Search results should be navigable and attributable. A good retrieval system helps a human or agent inspect the code rather than burying the path and line behind a prose answer.

## Where CodeVetter stands

CodeVetter’s local graph, history, and evidence search serve a narrower verification task. We do not offer Sourcegraph’s organization-wide index or use its service.
