Graphify: Map a codebase and its docs into a graph you can query
Added · Updated
Made by Graphify Labs
View profile on GitHub (opens in a new tab)An add-on for AI coding assistants that maps code, docs, PDFs and images into a graph you can ask questions about instead of searching files.
What it does
Graphify reads a project and builds a knowledge graph: a map where each node is a concept and links show how things connect, such as which code calls or imports other code. The source says code is parsed locally with tree-sitter (a tool that reads code structure) with no AI model, and nothing leaves your machine. Docs, PDFs, images and video go through your assistant's model for a semantic pass. Each link is tagged EXTRACTED (stated in the source) or INFERRED (worked out by graphify), so you can see what was read directly.
How to use it
Input: a project folder with code and optional docs. Action: install it, then type /graphify in your AI coding assistant. Output: a persisted graph (the source says you get three files, including an interactive graph.html) that you can query. You can ask a plain-language question, trace the path between two things, or ask it to explain one concept.
Common use cases
- Ask a plain-language question about a codebase and get back the related part of the graph.
- Trace how two pieces of code connect instead of reading files one by one.
- Add docs, PDFs, images or video to the same graph as the code.
Can I use this?
Requirements Needs Python 3.10+ and uv (or pipx). Install it, then run it from a supported assistant; the source lists Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and 20+ more, on macOS, Linux and Windows. The license is Apache-2.0. An API key is only needed if you configure a backend for the docs and media pass.
Caveat The source also promotes a separate hosted Graphify Cloud with a free 14 day trial; the local tool is described separately. Benchmark figures on the page are the project's own claims.
Worth knowing Docs, PDFs, images and video use your assistant's model or a configured API key for a semantic pass; only code parsing is fully local.
