Editor's note

Graphify is a Python tool that ingests an entire project directory, including application source code, SQL schemas, R scripts, shell scripts, documentation, PDFs, images, and videos, and converts everything into a queryable knowledge graph stored as three output files: an interactive browser-based `graph.html`, a summary `GRAPH_REPORT.md` with key concepts and suggested queries, and a portable `graph.json`. It integrates with Claude Code as a slash command skill by running `graphify install`, which writes a `SKILL.md` file to `.claude/skills/graphify/`, making `/graphify .` available directly inside the assistant. The same install mechanism targets Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot Chat, Aider, and roughly twenty other AI coding environments. A standout feature is the `graphify export callflow-html` command, which generates a separate architecture page with Mermaid call-flow diagrams. The tool uses Tree-sitter for code parsing and the Leiden algorithm for community detection in the graph. Developers working on large, multi-language codebases who need cross-cutting visibility across code, schema, and infrastructure layers are the primary audience.

Type `/graphify` in your AI coding assistant and it maps your entire project — code, docs, PDFs, images, videos — into a knowledge graph you can query instead of grepping through files.

Works in Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Kilo Code, Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot CLI, VS Code Copilot Chat, Aider, Amp, OpenClaw, Factory Droid, Trae, Hermes, Kimi Code, Kiro, Pi, Devin CLI, and Google Antigravity.

```
/graphify .
```

That's it. You get three files:

```
graphify-out/
├── graph.html       open in any browser — click nodes, filter, search
├── GRAPH_REPORT.md  the highlights: key concepts, surprising connections, suggested questions
└── graph.json       the full graph — query it anytime without re-reading your files
```

For a readable architecture page with Mermaid call-flow diagrams, run:

```bash
graphify export callflow-html
```

## Prerequisites

| Requirement | Minimum | Check | Install |
|---|---|---|---|
| Python | 3.10+ | `python --version` | [python.org](https://www.python.org/downloads/) |
| uv *(recommended)* | any | `uv --version` | `curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh \| sh` |
| pipx *(alternative)* | any | `pipx --version` | `pip install pipx` |

**macOS quick install (Homebrew):**
```bash
brew install python@3.12 uv
```

**Windows quick install:**
```powershell
winget install astral-sh.uv
```

**Ubuntu/Debian:**
```bash
sudo apt install python3.12 python3-pip pipx
# or install uv:
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
```

---

## Install

> **Official package:** The PyPI package is `graphifyy` (double-y). Other `graphify*` packages on PyPI are not affiliated. The CLI command is still `graphify`.

**Step 1 — install the package:**

```bash
# Recommended (uv puts graphify on PATH automatically):
uv tool install graphifyy

# Alternatives:
pipx install graphifyy
pip install graphifyy  # may need PATH setup — see note below
```

**Step 2 — register the skill with your AI assistant:**

```bash
graphify install
```

That's it. Open your AI assistant and type `/graphify .`

To install the assistant skill into the current repository instead of your user
profile, add `--project`:

```bash
graphify install --project
graphify install --project --platform codex
```

Project-scoped installs write under the current directory, for example
`.claude/skills/graphify/SKILL.md` or `.agents/skills/graphify/SKILL.md` (plus a
`references/` sidecar the skill loads on demand), and
print a `git add` hint for files that can be committed.
Per-platform commands that support project-scoped installs accept the same flag,
for example `graphify claude install --project` or `graphify codex install --project`.

> **PowerShell note:** Use `graphify .` not `/graphify .` — the leading slash is a path separator in PowerShell.

> **`graphify: command not found`?** Use `uv tool install graphifyy` or `pipx install graphifyy` — both put the CLI on PATH automatically. With plain `pip`, add `~/.local/bin` (Linux) or `~/Library/Python/3.x/bin` (Mac) to your PATH, or run `python -m graphify`.

> **Avoid `pip install` on Mac/Windows** if possible. The skill resolves Python at runtime from `graphify-out/.graphify_python`; if that points to a different environment than where `pip` installed the package, you'll get `ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'graphify'`. `uv tool install` and `pipx install` isolate the package in their own env and avoid this entirely.

> **Git hooks and uv tool / pipx:** `graphify hook install` embeds the current interpreter path directly into the hook scripts at install time, so the post-commit hook fires correctly even in GUI git clients and CI runners where `~/.local/bin` is not on PATH. If you reinstall or upgrade graphify, re-run `graphify hook install` to refresh the embedded path.

### Pick your platform

| Platform | Install command |
|----------|----------------|
| Claude Code (Linux/Mac) | `graphify install` |
| Claude Code (Windows) | `graphify install` (auto-detected) or `graphify install --platform windows` |
| CodeBuddy | `graphify install --platform codebuddy` |
| Codex | `graphify install --platform codex` |
| OpenCode | `graphify install --platform opencode` |
| Kilo Code | `graphify install --platform kilo` |
| GitHub Copilot CLI | `graphify install --platform copilot` |
| VS Code Copilot Chat | `graphify vscode install` |
| Aider | `graphify install --platform aider` |
| OpenClaw | `graphify install --platform claw` |
| Factory Droid | `graphify install --platform droid` |
| Trae | `graphify install --platform trae` |
| Trae CN | `graphify install --platform trae-cn` |
| Gemini CLI | `graphify install --platform gemini` |
| Hermes | `graphify install --platform hermes` |
| Kimi Code | `graphify install --platform kimi` |
| Amp | `graphify amp install` |
| Kiro IDE/CLI | `graphify kiro install` |
| Pi coding agent | `graphify install --platform pi` |
| Cursor | `graphify cursor install` |
| Devin CLI | `graphify devin install` |
| Google Antigravity | `graphify antigravity install` |

Codex users also need `multi_agent = true` under `[features]` in `~/.codex/config.toml` for parallel extraction. CodeBuddy uses the same Agent tool and PreToolUse hook mechanism as Claude Code. Factory Droid uses the `Task` tool for parallel subagent dispatch. OpenClaw and Aider use sequential extraction (parallel agent support is still early on those platforms). Trae uses the Agent tool for parallel subagent dispatch and does **not** support PreToolUse hooks — AGENTS.md is the always-on mechanism.

> Codex uses `$graphify` instead of `/graphify`.

### Optional extras

Install only what you need:

| Extra | What it adds | Install |
|---|---|---|
| `pdf` | PDF extraction | `uv tool install "graphifyy[pdf]"` |
| `office` | `.docx` and `.xlsx` support | `uv tool install "graphifyy[office]"` |
| `google` | Google Sheets rendering | `uv tool install "graphifyy[google]"` |
| `video` | Video/audio transcription (faster-whisper + yt-dlp) | `uv tool install "graphifyy[video]"` |
| `mcp` | MCP stdio server | `uv tool install "graphifyy[mcp]"` |
| `neo4j` | Neo4j push support | `uv tool install "graphifyy[neo4j]"` |
| `falkordb` | FalkorDB push support | `uv tool install "graphifyy[falkordb]"` |
| `svg` | SVG graph export | `uv tool install "graphifyy[svg]"` |
