  Clarify core function as an MCP server for AI assistants in README's opening

  Why:

  CURRENT

  Stop guessing. Octocode researches code locally and externally: your own workspace (ripgrep + LSP-level go-to-definition, references, call hierarchy) and the world's (GitHub repos, PRs, npm/PyPI packages), turning it into verifiable evidence your AI can search, read, and trace. Use it as an MCP server inside your AI assistant, or as a terminal CLI.

  COPY-PASTE FIX

  Copy

  Octocode is an **MCP server** and **terminal CLI** that empowers AI assistants to perform deep, verifiable code research across your local workspace and the world's public repositories. It transforms code into AI-optimized knowledge, enabling semantic search and context generation for LLMs.

  ## What Octocode Solves
  AI assistants often struggle with deep, verifiable code research across diverse codebases. Octocode provides the missing link:
  - **Semantic Code Search:** Naturally search across public and private repositories based on your permissions.
  - **AI-Optimized Knowledge:** Transform any accessible codebase into AI-optimized knowledge for simple and complex flows.
  - **Real-time Context:** Find real implementations and live documentation from anywhere, feeding precise context to your LLM.
