Codebase knowledge graph with MCP — agents finally understand your architecture

GitNexus builds a client-side knowledge graph of any GitHub repository or ZIP file, giving AI coding agents genuine architectural awareness. The browser-based UI runs entirely in WebAssembly — no server, no data upload — and renders an interactive dependency graph you can explore and query via a built-in Graph RAG agent. The CLI mode launches an MCP server that connects directly to Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and Windsurf. Once connected, agents can run blast radius analysis before making changes, do hybrid semantic + structural search across the codebase, trace dependency chains, and auto-generate or update CLAUDE.md configuration files. The underlying graph is built using a combination of AST parsing and embedding-based similarity. The project exploded on GitHub Trending on April 8, 2026 — picking up over 1,100 stars in a single day to reach nearly 25,000 total. It addresses a real pain point: AI coding agents frequently break things because they lack a global model of the codebase structure. GitNexus bridges that gap without sending your code anywhere.

QuickCompare is Trismik's model evaluation platform that lets AI/ML teams test multiple LLMs against their own production data in a consistent, repeatable way. Instead of relying on generic leaderboards like MMLU or HumanEval, teams upload their actual prompts and evaluate models side-by-side across quality, cost, latency, and reliability. The tool replaces ad hoc scripts and spreadsheets with a structured workflow: pick your models, run evals, get a clear decision matrix. It works with GPT-5.2, Claude Opus 4.5, Gemini 3 Pro, Llama 4, and dozens of others via a unified API harness. In an era where model choice directly impacts engineering budgets, QuickCompare gives teams the evidence they need to justify switching (or staying). Particularly useful when a cheaper model performs identically on your workload — the savings can be substantial.
Reviewer scorecard
“This is the missing layer for AI coding agents. Blast radius analysis alone would justify the install — I've spent hours manually tracing dependency chains before letting an agent touch a shared module. The CLAUDE.md auto-gen is a nice bonus for teams standardizing on Claude Code.”
“Finally a tool that stops the 'which model is best?' debate cold. Running your actual prompts through all the candidates and getting a cost/quality matrix is exactly what every engineering team needs right now. The switch from gut feel to data is overdue.”
“Graph RAG over codebases sounds great but falls apart on polyglot repos, generated code, and large monorepos where the graph becomes a hairball. The 25k stars in a day feels viral-first, substance-later. I'd want to see real benchmarks on a 500k-line production repo before trusting this in CI.”
“Evals are only as good as your test set, and most teams don't have one that actually reflects production variance. If you're running QuickCompare on 50 cherry-picked prompts, you're fooling yourself. The tooling is fine; the false confidence it creates is the real risk.”
“This is the prototype of what every AI coding tool will embed by default within 18 months. Architectural awareness is the difference between agents that assist and agents that own entire features. The MCP integration means it'll layer into any agentic workflow without friction.”
“Model selection is becoming a strategic moat. Teams that optimize cost-per-task now will compound those savings as they scale agent workloads. QuickCompare is the kind of boring-but-essential tooling that separates efficient AI orgs from ones burning cash on the prestige model.”
“The in-browser graph visualizer is genuinely beautiful — not just a utility but a way to see a codebase's structure for the first time. For indie devs joining a legacy project, this is a 10-minute orientation tool that would have taken a week of reading.”
“As someone who swaps models constantly for creative pipelines — image captions, copy generation, transcript summarization — having a structured way to test them on my actual prompts is genuinely useful. Stopped manually comparing outputs in tabs.”
