I built Trevec, an MCP memory engine for Claude Code (Built entirely using Claude Code)

[Original Reddit post](https://www.reddit.com/r/ClaudeCode/comments/1rom6au/i_built_trevec_an_mcp_memory_engine_for_claude/) I built Trevec, an MCP-native code retrieval engine specifically designed for Claude Code. It is completely free to try and use. How Claude helped me build this: I used Claude Code extensively to build this project. Trevec is built in Rust, and I used Claude to write the complex Tree-sitter AST extraction logic and to map out the codebase relationships. I also used Claude Code to write the Python evaluation harness we used to benchmark it against SWE-bench. What it does & the problem it solves: Trevec provides a get_context MCP tool and Claude uses this to quickly retrieve any piece of your code and the relevant context along without any dead code references. It returns the exact functions + their callers + their dependencies in a single call (takes ~49ms). Under the hood, it parses your code into AST units, builds a knowledge graph of relationships, and uses that structure to retrieve precisely the context Claude needs — not just text matches, but the code neighborhood and your chat history too. Benchmark results (SWE-bench Lite, 300 issues): 42.3% — the first file Trevec returns is exactly the file that needs fixing 60.7% Recall@5 Average ~4,000 tokens per query (vs 30k+ when agents explore the repo themselves, which saves massive token costs). Benchmark results here: https://github.com/Beaverise/trevec-swe-bench-results (Not a promotion or clickbait) How to try it for free: Trevec is 100% local. Your code never leaves your machine, and no API keys are needed. Setup takes 30 seconds. Would love feedback from anyone using Claude Code daily! submitted by /u/MutantX222 Originally posted by u/MutantX222 on r/ClaudeCode

Sean O’Brien sold workers and unions out to Trump—these Teamsters are running to oust him.

As general president of the union, Sean O’Brien has operated with a “Teamsters vs. Everybody” mentality, especially when it comes to dealing with President Donald Trump and embracing the MAGA right. But now, 14 months into the second Trump administration, the labor movement and the entire working class—Teamsters members included—is under attack. In this episode of *Working People*, we speak with veteran Teamsters Richard Hooker Jr. and John Palmer, who are running to oust O’Brien from leadership in the upcoming union election. **Guests:** * Richard Hooker Jr. has dedicated 26 years to the Teamsters, spending 20 of those years at UPS and the last six in leadership roles. He is the Secretary-Treasurer and Principal Officer of Teamsters Local 623 in Philadelphia, and he is now running on the Fearless Slate to unseat Sean O’Brien as a candidate for general president of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters. * John Palmer has 38 years of experience in the Teamsters and is currently serving as a vice president at large of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters. He is running on the Fearless Slate as a candidate to be the union’s general secretary-treasurer. **Additional links/info:** * Teamsters Fearless Slate [website](https://be-fearless.org/meet-the-fearless-team) * Hank Kennedy, *Current Affairs*, “[Sean O’Brien sold labor to Trump, and got nothing](https://www.currentaffairs.org/news/sean-obrien-sold-labor-to-trump-and-got-nothing)” * Michael Sainato, *The Guardian*, “[Labor activist takes on Teamsters leader allying with Trump: ‘He doesn’t represent the workers’](https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/nov/01/teamsters-union-leadership-trump)” * Joe Allen, *CounterPunch*, “[Why are the Teamsters endorsing Greg Abbott?](https://www.counterpunch.org/2026/02/17/why-are-the-teamsters-endorsing-greg-abbott/)” * Peter Eavis, *The New York Times*, “[UPS says it is cutting up to 30,000 jobs](https://www.nytimes.com/2026/01/27/business/ups-jobs-layoffs-2026.html)” * Maximillian Alvarez, TRNN, “[Everybody hates Sean](https://therealnews.com/everybody-hates-sean)” * Maximillian Alvarez, TRNN, “[We asked 8 different Teamsters what they thought of Sean O’Brien’s speech—their responses may surprise you](https://therealnews.com/we-asked-8-different-teamsters-what-they-thought-of-sean-obriens-speech-their-responses-may-surprise-you)” **Featured Music:** * Jules Taylor, *Working People* Theme Song **Credits:** * Audio Post-Production: Jules Taylor Transcript *The following is a rushed transcript and may contain errors.

Welcome everyone to Working People, a podcast about the lives, jobs, dreams, and struggles of the working class today. Working People is a proud member of the Labor Radio Podcast Network and is brought to you in partnership with In These Times Magazine and the Real News Network. This show is produced by Jules Taylor and made possible by the support of listeners like you. My name is Maximillian Alvarez, and we’ve got a doozy of an episode for y’all today. As always, we really appreciate, and in fact, we depend on our listeners reaching out to us with topics and stories that you guys want us to dig into. And one of the questions that you have overwhelmingly told us that you want to see addressed on the show is the question that we are dedicating today’s episode too. Now that we are one year into the second Trump administration, what the hell is going on with the teamsters and the union’s general president, Sean O’Brien? Now, by way of introducing today’s episode, I’m going to read at length from a really thought provoking article by Hank Kennedy, which was just published in Current Affairs Magazine, and we’re going to link to this in the show notes. But Kennedy writes, “Elected as a union militant with the support of longstanding reform organization, Teamsters for a Democratic Union or TDU, Sean O’Brien has spent the last two years shepherding the lambs of the American working class straight to the slaughter via his endorsements and promotions of some of the most reactionary anti-labor politicians in the land. I was complicit in this. Back in 2021, I was a teamster working in logistics. I both voted and campaigned for O’Brien, giving money and time to his campaign. 2024 erased whatever residual affection I’d had for O’Brien. That year, he not only spoke of Donald Trump as a man, “Proven to be one tough SOB at the Republican National Convention.” He promoted as 100% on point a transphobic article by Senator Josh Hawley, this compact article on “the promise of pro- labor conservatism, a sailed corporate America for “using their profits to push diversity, equity, and inclusion, and the religion of the trans flag.” There’s been a phenomenon within the union’s leadership of working towards Trump. Whatever Trump says, the union leadership leaps to support, often without looking. When Trump called for

Is Flock just a poor US-centric copy of, globally active Genetec?

I've read all of Genetec's [customer stories](https://www.genetec.com/customer-stories/search) (the PDFs), and although I recognize these, as being Genetec marketing material (at least in part), they do contain insightful information, regarding implementation of surveillance systems; that is, from the perspective of a diverse palette of organisations. This palette primarily consists of: universities, school districts, ports, critical infrastructure providers, business to business companies, health care providers, real estate developers, gambling companies, (sports) venues, cities, public transportation services, airports, retailers, and foremost police departments. What most have in common, is the increasing scale at which they operate; setting in motion a search for IT-solutions, able to scale alongside organisational growth, and doing so in a cost-effective way. This entails: the centralisation of (previously "siloed") systems and departments, automatization of (previously time-consuming, or outright unmanageable) tasks, and proactive 'Data-Driven Decision-Making (DDDM)'; unlocking operational efficiencies and granular control over vast operations. Which is where Genetec introduces itself, primarily through [its partners](https://www.genetec.com/partners/partner-integration-hub?keywords) (including: hardware manufacturers, software solutions companies, system integrators, consultancy firms, etc.), often during an organisation's 'call for tender' or 'Request For Proposal (RFP)'; or it's recommended by other Genetec customers (including by law enforcement, to "community" partners: primarily businesses). The most recognizable partners, of the consortium-like construction, include: Axis Communications, Sony Corporation, Hanwha Vision, Bosch, NVIDIA, ASSA ABLOY, Intel, Pelco, Canon, Dell technologies, HID Global, FLIR Systems, Global Parking Solutions, and Seagate Technology. Alongside the Genetec-certified [hardware](https://www.genetec.com/supported-device-list) and software integrations (of which their partners' being actively co-marketed to customers), it also allows for custom integrations: through their 'Software Development Kits (SDKs)', and 'Application Programming Interfaces (APIs)'. So instead of single-vendor lock-in, organisations are effectively subject to multi-vendor lock-in (unless: spending resources, on custom integrations, is more cost-effective). Genetec's primary focus, lies on their extensive suite, of (specialized) software applications, deployed on: an on-site server, multiple (distributed) on-site servers (possibly federated: allowing for a centralized view over multiple implementations), in the "cloud" (i.e. someone else's server) as a '... as a Service' solution; or a combination of aforementioned (providing "cloud" flexibility). When using multiple applications, Genetec's 'Security Center' can unify all; meaning operators aren't required to switch between applications. And considering applications aren't limited to just camera surveillance, but also include: intrusion detection (intrusion panels, line-crossing cameras, panic switches, etc.), access control (electronic locks, access control readers (pin, card, tag, mobile, and/or biometric), door control modules, etc.), communication (intercoms, 'Public Address (PA)' systems, emergency stations, etc.) and ALPR (ALPR boom gates, gateless (license plate as a credential), enforcement vehicles, etc.); it allows for centralization of these systems (unless prohibited by strict IT policies). All of these technologies combined, primarily serve to: save on resources, protect assets, prevent losses, ensure operational continuity, and resolve disputes over: parking tickets, insurance claims (as a result of damages: suffered or caused on premise; potentially increasing premium), or even legal allegations ("increase the number of early guilty pleas"); all of course, under the guise of safety. Whether it be organisations individually, or "community" initiatives (often spearheaded by businesses, while citizens are left to follow); most circle back to previously outlined, financially-grounded motives. Resources include staff, who's function might become more versatile, or entirely obsolete (through efficiency gains), and might depend on events, reported by analytics (growing queues, areas requiring clean-up, crowd bottlenecks, etc.); meaning they too, are subject to this system: from onboarding ("minimise the time that elapses before they make a productive contribution") and throughout their career ("employee theft", "employee attendance", "agents' activities, collectively or individually", etc.). Previously, some organisations utilized analog cameras (having a recorder each), in which: a looping tape, would periodically overwrite previous recordings (minimizing retention periods: physically); which possbily caused quality degradations, sometimes to such a degree, footage could no longer serve as legal evidence (which too, is privacy-friendly).

Blink’s budget buzzer gets some worthwhile upgrades

 Blink launched the second generation of its video doorbell this week. Amazon’s budget security camera company, Blink, has launched the second generation of its [popular video doorbell](https://www.theverge.com/2021/9/28/22698612/amazon-blink-video-doorbell-outdoor-camera-floodlight-solar-panel). The [new Blink Video Doorbell](https://www.amazon.com/BlinkDoorbell) adds a head-to-toe view and improved video resolution. It can also now alert you when a person is at your door instead of just the neighborhood cat or a strong gust of wind triggering its motion sensors. The doorbell camera comes with a new, more basic hub, the Sync Module Core, which, unlike the first-gen model, is required to use the buzzer. Blink’s latest doorbell is still one of the cheapest on the market, costing $59.99 without the hub and $69.99 with it. The lowest-priced [battery-powered buzzer](https://ring.com/products/battery-doorbell) from Ring, [Blink’s sister brand](https://www.theverge.com/22704290/amazon-blink-ring-camera-doorbell-brands-smart-home-why), is $99, and it only claims six to 12 months of battery life compared to Blink’s industry-leading two years, powered by [its custom silicon](https://www.theverge.com/24100149/blink-mini-2-review#%3A%7E%3Atext=Blink%E2%80%99s+custom-built%2Ca+Blink+subscription.)).  Upgrades on this version include an improved 150-degree field of view with a 1:1 aspect ratio. That should give you a head-to-toe view of your porch so you can see people and packages. The prior version, which is my pick for the [best budget video doorbell](https://www.theverge.com/22954554/best-video-doorbell-camera?gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=22454846081&gbraid=0AAAAA9k5E7BvZfFmJHpRO277kAo86L34q#o7D9AX%3A%7E%3Atext=details+here.-%2CBest+budget+doorbell+camera%2C-Blink+Video+Doorbell), has a 16:9 aspect ratio. This buzzer also adds 1440p x 1440p image resolution, according to Jonathan Cohn, Blink’s head of product. This is a step up from 1080p, meaning footage should be clearer. There’s still no color night vision; it retains the infrared night vision of the first-gen model. The biggest upgrade is the addition of person detection; the first-gen model sends alerts for any motion, but now you can be notified just when there’s a person at your door. This is powered by [on-device computer vision](https://support.blinkforhome.com/en_US/using-your-camera/person-detection), so it doesn’t require the cloud. But it does require a $3 per month ($30 per year) [Blink subscription plan](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08J5G9BCT?adgwdg=vicc_subscriptions_display_on_website&tenantId=DEVICE_SUBS&ASIN=B08JHCVHTY&nodl=12) (which also adds 60 days of cloud storage for recorded video). Blink has slowly been bringing person detection to its lineup, adding it first to its [wired floodlight camera](https://www.theverge.com/22811985/best-smart-floodlight-security-camera#%3A%7E%3Atext=and+professional+monitoring.-%2CThe+best+budget+floodlight+camera%2C-Blink+Wired+Floodlight), then its [flagship outdoor camera](https://www.theverge.com/2023/8/24/23843590/blink-outdoor-4-security-camera-wireless-person-detection), and its [Blink Mini indoor / outdoor camera](https://www.theverge.com/24100149/blink-mini-2-review) last year. The new doorbell requires a Sync Module to work, Cohn says, and it now comes with the new Sync Module Core, rather than the [Sync Module 2](https://www.amazon.com/Blink-Sync-Module-2/dp/B084RQ6MHJ). This is something of a downgrade as the Core doesn’t have the local storage option that the Sync 2 offers. Cohn says the module helps extend battery life and range and enables on-demand live view and two-way audio. He confirmed that the new doorbell can work with the Sync 2 and the newer long-range [Sync Module XR,](https://www.amazon.com/All-new-Blink-Sync-Module-XR/dp/B0B198XD6X) if you already have one or if you want local storage.  The new buzzer features a slightly chunkier design to accommodate three AA lithium batteries as opposed to two in the first-gen version. The extra battery helps maintain the impressive two-year battery life while powering improved image quality and the addition of person detection, Cohn says. Blink is unique among security camera makers as it uses its own chip that’s optimized for power management, so while it doesn’t boast the higher-end features like those from Ring and Arlo, you don’t have to worry about dealing with charging or replacing its batteries as often. It can also be hardwired to main power, which allows the
