XERJ is the new way for AI to search data. Its autoindex capability activates agents to know your data without the token waste of grep (1974 tool). One command indexes code, docs, logs and PDFs for search, RAG, security audits and agent memory, using 40x fewer tokens than grep. It’s durable and can replace ElasticSearch saving you x10 infra costs.

ECC Tools
ECC Tools is the hosted GitHub App for rolling ECC into real repositories. It analyzes repo history and agent-related config, then opens pull requests with project-specific skills, rules, hooks, commands, manifests, and safety checks for AI coding agents. It also runs PR audits, security scans, and selective rollout planning so teams can adopt ECC repo by repo instead of installing everything at once.
