Releap for VS Code
Index your codebase in 2 minutes.
No GitHub org approval needed.
Install the extension, create a free account, and index your local workspace directly. Get cited answers about your codebase, verify acceptance criteria, and generate tickets — before your organization has approved the GitHub connection.
Two ways to get started
Index local workspace
Open a folder in VS Code, install the extension, and Releap indexes your code directly. No IT involvement. No GitHub App. No admin rights.
Perfect for evaluating Releap before org approval, or for personal projects you want to keep local.
Install extension →Connect GitHub repo
Connect your GitHub organization for team-wide access. Everyone on the team queries the same indexed codebase. Requires GitHub App approval from an org admin.

Index
Extension reads your workspace files and sends them to Releap.

Secret files (.env, *.key, *.pem) are
automatically excluded. Your code is only accessible to your Releap
workspace members. Clear your local index at any time.
Everything Releap does, available in VS Code
Active ticket visibility
Releap detects your current branch and surfaces the matching ticket, AC items, related files, and engineering context in the sidebar.
AC verification
Verify acceptance criteria against your local code before pushing. Compare verification status across local, test, and production.
Explore with Releap
Ask targeted questions about the code you're about to change — before you open your coding agent. Refine the engineering prompt first.
MCP integration
Releap exposes 15+ tools via MCP. Claude, Codex, and Cursor can read tickets, run AC verification, and update ticket status as they generate code.
Recently Viewed tickets
Keep track of dependency tickets and unblocking work without switching to the browser.
Live updates
Status changes from teammates appear in real time via server-sent events — no manual refresh.
Your code. Your control.
- Files sent to Releap's servers for indexing and search.
- Make sure you have permission to share your company's code with third-party services before indexing.
- Read-only by default — Releap never writes to your codebase.
- Clear your local index at any time.
- Per-workspace isolation — your code is never shared with other organizations.
Ready for team access? Connect GitHub.
When your organization approves the GitHub App, connect your repo in Releap settings. Your local index is automatically superseded — no data migration, no re-setup.
Your team gets shared access to the same codebase from the web UI, Slack, and MCP — without any additional configuration.
