graphify
Turn codebases, docs, and PDFs into a queryable knowledge graph for AI assistants.
Local tree-sitter AST parsing replaces grep with a real graph for your AI coding assistant.
Graphify is a local tool that parses your code, docs, and PDFs into a real knowledge graph rather than a vector store. You type /graphify in assistants like Claude Code or Cursor to query code paths instead of grepping files.
What it is
It uses tree-sitter locally to build deterministic AST graphs of code across 40 languages without sending code to an LLM. It generates three output files including an interactive HTML graph, a markdown report, and a JSON file for querying.
Who it's for
It suits developers and executive assistants managing complex codebases who want to cut token spend and trace code connections. It does not suit teams unwilling to run a Python CLI or install assistant skills.
Key features
Local AST Parsing
Parses code locally using tree-sitter without sending your source files to an LLM.
Explained Graph Edges
Every connection is tagged as explicitly extracted from source or inferred by resolution.
Interactive Outputs
Produces a clickable browser-based HTML graph alongside markdown summaries and raw JSON.
Multi-Assistant Skill
Integrates via a single command into Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI, and GitHub Copilot.

Our honest verdict
What's great
- Parses code locally via tree-sitter with zero LLM credit usage for code structures
- Tags every edge with explicit confidence markers for source verification
- Provides an interactive HTML graph output alongside queryable JSON files
- Supports over 40 programming languages out of the box
Where it falls short
- Requires Python 3.10+ and package managers like uv or pipx to install
- Semantic passes over non-code documents like PDFs require assistant model API keys
- Cloud features and cross-repo links require a paid Graphify Cloud subscription
Pricing & license
Free and open source under the Apache-2.0 license, with optional paid Graphify Cloud tiers for continuous monorepo monitoring and team integrations.

FAQ
Does Graphify use a vector database?
No, it builds a real graph you traverse rather than using embeddings or vector stores.
Which AI assistants are supported?
It supports Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot, and over 20 others.
Is my code sent to an external server?
Code is parsed locally on your machine using tree-sitter AST, so nothing leaves your machine.
