Graphicle：Rust 版 Graphify，為編碼代理提供程式碼圖與記憶功能

Code graph and memory for your coding agents, in one Rust program.

Graphicle maps your repository into a code graph, remembers your project's docs, decisions and past agent sessions, and gives your coding agent cited excerpts from both: the exact files and lines. It runs on your machine: no API key needed, no account, no telemetry.

Quick start

brew install graphicle-ai/tap/graphicle
cd your-repo
graphicle setup

_{No Homebrew? curl -fsSL https://github.com/graphicle-ai/graphicle/releases/latest/download/install.sh | sh · Release archives · Other ways to install
Windows: no native build yet; under WSL2 the Linux install should work (not yet tested). Native Windows support is planned.}

graphicle setup indexes the repository, builds its code graph and connects the coding agents it finds. It also turns on session capture, points Claude Code's searches to the code graph first, adds a short section to AGENTS.md and installs Git hooks that keep the project current. It lists every file it changes and backs each one up first; graphicle disconnect undoes it all.

Then ask your agent to "use graphicle to find where failed requests are retried", or ask from the terminal:

$ graphicle ask "where is tax added to prices?"
Evidence for "where is tax added to prices?"
4 excerpts · 598 of 3,000 tokens

[1] shop/pricing.py:1-7  price_with_tax()
    """Prices and tax."""
    TAX_RATE = 0.2


    def price_with_tax(price):
        """A price with the sales tax added."""
        return round(price * (1 + TAX_RATE), 2)

_{Real output, cut after the first excerpt. With no model configured, ask shows the evidence; graphicle config set model anthropic (or openai, ollama) adds written answers.}

Let your coding agent install it

Paste this into Claude Code, Codex or Cursor:

Install Graphicle with `brew install graphicle-ai/tap/graphicle` (or, without Homebrew,
`curl -fsSL https://github.com/graphicle-ai/graphicle/releases/latest/download/install.sh | sh`),
then run `graphicle setup --yes` in this repository and list every file it changed.

Start here

• Native and fast. One Rust program. On Kubernetes (31k files), the 0.1.0 engine ran a code-only extract in 3 min 18 s, against 26 min 38 s for Graphify 0.9.88, and built the same graph (one exploratory run each, one Linux host, the same 16 CPUs, 8 workers).
• Context, not re-reading. Your agent asks Graphicle and gets the relevant code, docs and decisions as cited excerpts, within a token budget.
• Answers you can check. Every excerpt names its file and lines. Memories an agent proposes wait for your approval.
• One program, not a stack. The code graph, the memory, one MCP server, the web app and the command line come in one install, with one SQLite file. No Python, Docker or database server.
• Local and private. No account and no telemetry. Nothing leaves your machine unless you ask.

What it does

• Code graph. Files, functions, classes, calls and imports, parsed with tree-sitter and no model. graphicle graph searches it, explains a symbol, traces a path and exports an interactive HTML graph. After graphicle graph extract . --code-only, graphicle graph affected "retry()" lists what depends on a symbol.
• Project memory. Docs (Markdown, PDF, Office, HTML), reviewed decisions and procedures, and past Claude Code and Codex sessions, searchable alongside the code.
• Cited context on a budget. graphicle context and the MCP tools return excerpts with their sources, within a token budget, without calling a model.
• One MCP server. graphicle mcp serves the code-graph tools, under Graphify's tool names such as query_graph, get_neighbors and shortest_path, next to the memory tools.
• Memory tied to your code. Reviewed memories are tied to the functions they are about: a memory goes stale when that code changes, and edits elsewhere in the file usually leave it current (the exact rule). Mentions of code in your docs are linked to the definitions they name (graphicle call graph.doc_links lists them).
• Across repositories. Recall can span the repositories of a workspace: graphicle context --workspace, or the workspace MCP endpoint.
• Always current. Before each answer Graphicle syncs the few files you changed; Git hooks sync after each commit, merge and checkout.
• No re-explaining. Session capture keeps each finished turn, and each new session starts with your reviewed memories and the latest turns.
• An app. graphicle open shows the graph, the sources and the memory in your browser. It is where you approve memories.

Works with your agents

graphicle setup connects every client it finds over MCP. Each file is backed up once as <file>.graphicle-bak, and graphicle disconnect removes what it added.

How it works

1. Sync. Graphicle reads the folder (it respects .gitignore and skips secrets), keeps a versioned copy of each source and builds the code graph.
2. Recall. When your agent calls a tool, Graphicle syncs what changed, ranks excerpts from code, documents, sessions and reviewed memory, and returns them with citations. The tools call no model; your agent's own model reads the excerpts.
3. Remember. Captured sessions become sources. Memories that agents propose wait for your approval in the app.

Benchmarks

Speed. The chart above: Kubernetes (31k files), the 0.1.0 engine (a Linux test build of the release source) against Graphify 0.9.88, one exploratory run each, both building the same graph (Kubernetes run). Earlier, on Django, a pre-release build ran a code-only extract in 7.5 s against 72.8 s for Graphify 0.9.77 (medians of five alternating runs, one shared Linux host, 8 workers), both building the same graph (the 8 October record).

Memory. In a comparison with seven memory systems, registered before any answer was scored and run with one open model as every system's reader and judge, a pre-release build of Graphicle trails none on three development sets. Every score, with its method and caveats.

FAQ

Privacy and local first

• One data folder. Your sources, memories and the code graph that setup builds live in one SQLite store: ~/Library/Application Support/Graphicle on macOS, ~/.local/share/graphicle on Linux. graphicle graph extract writes its graph file to .graphicle/ in the project.
• Loopback by default. The app and its HTTP and MCP endpoints listen on 127.0.0.1.
• No telemetry, no account. Graphicle connects to the network only when you ask it to: a model or a connector you configure, a full graphicle graph extract (it sends documents and images to the LLM whose API key it finds), the GitHub CLI for graphicle graph add, clone and the graph server's pull-request tools, and graphicle update with a feed you name. A build from source also downloads the parser sources once. Details
• Careful sync. sync respects .gitignore and skips .env files, keys and credentials. Session capture drops <private>…</private> spans and redacts credentials.
• Forgetting with a receipt. Deleting a memory or a captured session also removes what was derived from it, and you get a hash-chained deletion receipt.

Do I need an API key or a model?

No, for most of it. The code graph (with --code-only), sync, context, the MCP server, session capture and the app work without one. A model writes the answers of graphicle ask, proposes memories from sources and reads documents and images in a full graphicle graph extract. Local models through Ollama or any OpenAI-compatible server work (configuration).

Is Graphicle a fork of Graphify?

The code-graph engine is a Rust port of Graphify, kept in step with Graphify's releases and credited in its file headers and in NOTICE. The parity checks name the release it follows. The memory, the memory tools, the app and session capture are not part of Graphify. Coming from Graphify? graphicle setup offers to switch a repository, backs up each file and never deletes graphify-out/ (Moving from Graphify).

Will it handle my large repository?

By default a project can hold up to 100,000 text files and 1 GiB of text; you can raise both (see Limits in docs/configuration.md). A very large file is analysed in part or kept as searchable text instead of stopping a sync.

Is there a version for teams?

Graphicle is free and open source under Apache-2.0, for individuals and teams alike. A commercial edition for teams is in private preview. To talk to us, start a discussion: https://github.com/graphicle-ai/graphicle/discussions, or chat with us on Discord.

What is the licence?

Graphicle is Apache-2.0: free to use, change and ship, commercially too. Third-party parts keep their own licences, listed in NOTICE.
