codegraph

A local code map that tracks functions, classes, imports, calls, and dependencies in a project. It can find meaningful code relationships instead of only matching text.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to find callers and callees, search for symbols, understand a module, prepare context for editing, and assess the impact of a change. It requires an initial workspace index.
Why use it?
It reduces the need to search many files manually when investigating how code is connected or what a change might affect.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Made for: Claude Code.

Per session 37 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 1,219 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.

Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.
Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

codegraph scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 73 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

CodeGraph — local code intelligence

CodeGraph maintains a persistent semantic graph of your codebase (functions, classes, imports, call edges, dependency edges) in RocksDB. It resolves references — so "who calls X?" is a single tool call, not a multi-file grep.

First time in this project?

Run codegraph_reindex_workspace once. Takes 5-30 seconds. After that, the index persists across sessions automatically and updates incrementally.

Start here — the 5 tools you'll use 90% of the time

When you need Call this NOT this
Who calls function X? codegraph_get_callers(uri, line) grep for the function name
What breaks if I change X? codegraph_analyze_impact(uri, line) reading every importing file
Context for editing a file codegraph_get_edit_context(uri, line) reading 5+ files manually
Find a symbol by name codegraph_symbol_search(query) grep -r across the project
Module structure overview codegraph_get_module_summary(directory) ls + reading each file

These tools return resolved references (not string matches) — they know that auth::validate in file A calls jwt::verify in file B, even if the name doesn't appear as a literal string.

URI format: file:///absolute/path (not relative). Use the paths from symbol_search results directly.

Compact mode: most tools accept compact: true for shorter output. Use compact for scanning, full for deep investigation.

Common workflows (chain tools for best results)

  • PR review: pr_context — one call gives blast radius, test gaps, stale docs, reviewers
  • Refactoring: symbol_searchanalyze_impactget_edit_context
  • Bug triage: search_by_errorget_callersget_ai_context(intent: "debug")
  • Onboarding: get_module_summaryfind_entry_pointsget_call_graph
  • Design check: index_markdownverify_designdesign_gaps

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

codegraph is an agent published in the GitHub repository codegraph-ai/codegraph-rules-for-agents (4 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 37 tokens to every session and 1,219 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
