Graphify

Maps your code and docs into a clickable knowledge graph Claude can search.

What is it?

Type /graphify in your project and it maps your code, docs, PDFs and images into a knowledge graph: every function, file and idea becomes a dot, linked to the things it connects to. You get an interactive page to click around, a short report of the key ideas and a data file Claude can search instead of re-reading every file.

The code mapping runs on your computer without sending anything anywhere. Docs, PDFs and images get a second pass that uses your Claude model. Each link is marked as either read straight from the source or worked out by Graphify, so you can tell which is which.

Its GitHub star count is unusually high for a project this new, so don't read too much into it. Real use looks solid: well over a million downloads a month and hundreds of contributors.

Install in Claude Code

You need Python 3.10 or newer. In a terminal run uv tool install graphifyy (note the double y), or pipx install graphifyy, then graphify install, which finds Claude Code and adds the skill. Then type /graphify . in your project.

Try this prompt

Paste into Claude Code
/graphify . then show me how a new order moves through this project, from checkout to the confirmation email.

Who it's for

People taking over an unfamiliar project, or working in one too big to keep in their head.

Best for

  • Understanding an inherited project
  • Onboarding someone new
  • Explaining how a feature flows
  • Cutting token use on big projects

Why it made the list

The clickable map makes a strange codebase easier to understand, and searching the graph uses far fewer tokens than reading files.
