NeuroCode is a lightweight, heterogeneous neuro-symbolic framework and Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables small, local language models (1.5B–14B parameters) to fix multi-file software engineering bugs on consumer laptops (e.g., 4GB–8GB VRAM) without cloud API dependency or Out-of-Memory (OOM) crashes.
## 🏛️ System Architecture
Unlike traditional coding agents that dump entire raw files into context windows (causing severe VRAM OOMs) or get trapped in multi-turn exploratory shell loops (grep, find, cat), NeuroCode divides cognitive labor across the PC hardware boundary:
1. Host CPU & RAM (Deterministic Graph Engine):
Uses Tree-sitter and NetworkX to build an in-memory Code Property Graph (CPG) in milliseconds.
Computes a topological $k$-hop reachability closure around fault candidates.
Solves a bounded 0/1 knapsack optimization problem to select high-relevance AST subtrees strictly under the model's token limit ($B \le 1,200$ tokens).
2. Device GPU (Neural Synthesis Engine):
Ingests only the bounded sliced context across PCIe.
Generates single-turn SEARCH/REPLACE diff patches with zero exploratory token waste.
Completely prevents KV-cache quadratic blowup and GPU OOM cliff failure.
## 📊 Comprehensive Empirical Evaluation (5-Benchmark Suite)
NeuroCode was evaluated across 5 comprehensive benchmark tracks spanning real-world repository repair, standalone algorithm synthesis, multi-file cross-boundary retrieval, and low-level hardware telemetry.
| Benchmark Suite | Metric | Baseline / BM25 | NeuroCode (Ours) | Advantage |
| SWE-bench Lite ($N=292$) | Valid Diff Apply / Resolved | 0.0% (OOM on 4GB) / 0.0% | 41.4% apply / 9.5% resolved | Prevents OOM cliff; +23.9% apply over BM25 |
| HumanEval ($N=164$) | Pass@1 (Unit Test) | 80.5% | 86.0% (141/164) | +5.5% via syntax-aware graph repair |
| MBPP ($N=100$) | Pass@1 (Unit Test) | 81.0% | 87.0% (87/100) | +6.0% algorithmic verification |
| RepoBench-R ($N=150$) | Recall@1 / Token Budget | 18.0% (745 tokens) | 100.0% (428 tokens) | -42.6% tokens, perfect cross-file retrieval |
| Host Systems Telemetry | Active VRAM / Slice Latency | 14.2 GB (OOM) | 961.2 MB / 0.62 ms | 93.2% VRAM reduction, 0 OOMs |
### 💻 Physical Laptop Edge Validation (NVIDIA RTX 3050 Laptop GPU)
Tested live on an everyday developer laptop (AMD Ryzen 7 7435HS + NVIDIA RTX 3050 Laptop GPU, 4.0 GB VRAM):
Peak Active VRAM: 961.2 MB (Only 25.5% GPU capacity, leaving 2.54 GB buffer for system desktop UI).
Throughput: 15.8 tokens/second locally.
Host Slicing Overhead: 0.04 ms on CPU.
Disk SSD Wear: 0.0 GB (100% in-memory ephemeral RAM execution via /dev/shm).
