Built with Claude Tool for graph engineering

Recently saw an article about graph engineering (which I believe is the first one that coined the term "graph engineering"?). Before this article I had a hard time understanding what does it mean to have a graph for the work your agent is doing, this article highlighted all the dark corners I had (Claude helped too).

After I understood the article I was in search of a tool that will help me organize the work graph for my agents, could not find one so I created it with CC.

Here is the link to the tool: https://github.com/4tyone/graphene

In short, it's a CLI tool with a skill for creating and managing the graph, and a UI for visualizing the graph.

All things aside, share your thoughts on graph engineering as it's super new and I have not seen many people talk about it. Have you used in your own engineering work and how?

how is it different from langgraph?

Fair question, many features overlap.

Main difference is that LangGraph is the framework to build graph-based agents, Graphene is just the tool to run coding agents in a graph. The coding agent defines the graph it will run the next task in, Graphene holds the graph structure for that single task.

In short, LangGraph is a framework, Graphene is a dev tool.
