What it does
code-ask is a lightweight command-line interface (CLI) that allows developers to query, analyze, and understand their local codebase using natural language. By parsing project files and integrating intelligent retrieval, it instantly extracts context, locates functions, and answers technical questions about your source code directly from your terminal. Perfect for accelerating onboarding, auditing large repositories, or quickly debugging complex code paths without leaving the console.

Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
