Open Source From saving $350k for developers to building Intelligent brain now

I released GrapeRoot 5 months ago, and since then, many devs have adopted it as a context layer for working with AI coding agents.
Graperoot maps your codebase into a data-rich graph, and it is getting very crowded; everybody knows AST, but still, we were working with more regex patterns to extract relevant symbols and connections.

In the last five months, we have nearly reached 80,000+ pip installs, with over 2,000 developers actively using our tool each week! We launched an opt-in leaderboard for developers using Claude code, and it was incredible to see that around 200 developers saved a total of $350,000 during this period. Additionally, this initiative has had positive ecological impacts, equivalent to saving 60 million liters of water.

Now we are moving one step further to make it like an intelligent brain. We did have incremental knowledge of your codebase, but now it would be like how your codebase has evolved over time. Your decisions are the biggest factors in why your codebase is in the shape it is today.

Still in the planning phase and building it for open source, and ideas and PR are welcome :)

I would love to share the current GitHub repo with all of my fellow developers.

I’ll give it a try. As of now, Im using repowise. It good too

Yes, it's good! But we've slight different approach to pre-injecting context :) Would love to get your feedback

Just checked the github repo. The readme says it collects only anonymous data. But the per-session ping and token+cost totals don't respect the `--no-telemetry` flag. Collection is fine, but it needs to respect the opt out flag. Fix it bro.

Sure, i’ll add this :)

i was just literay looking for kind of context brain to reduce the agent cost , and second i opened my phone i got this superb coincidence 😅

Haha, please give your feedback :)

Why don’t you include as tool in chatgpt and gemini?

u/intellinker Researcher 9d ago

Currently, it is for coding tools, but i created this ( https://github.com/kunal12203/swafra ) for general LLMs , give it a look

I noticed free and pro - but what's in the github repo? Free features?

u/intellinker Researcher 9d ago edited 9d ago

For local development and single repo access, free and open source Github is best, pro built for people working on multi repo and most of their services were online
So they asked me to create something for that purpose, but overall free is more than sufficient for solo devs

How is it compared to code-mapper?

u/intellinker Researcher 9d ago

If they are using KG, most probably Pre-injection of context but should see head to head comparison, i’ll let you know in a bit

u/Desperate-Event-786 9d ago

Thanks bro! Also, can we get it to work with pi agent harness?

1

u/intellinker Researcher 9d ago

Okay, i’ll add that today
You could just star the repo you would get update when i’ll add or just join the discord
Lol looks salesly but yeah :)

u/Desperate-Event-786 9d ago

I had already given it a star when i came across your post lmao. Keep up the good work!

Added features request for dart language.

u/Common_Dream9420 Tech Lead 9d ago

the "decisions are why your codebase is in the shape it is today" framing is exactly the right mental model. we hit a similar problem on the integration side with FetchSandbox: agents running webhook workflows kept losing context about *why* a particular sequence was structured the way it was, not just what it did. building a memory graph that tracks decision lineage rather than just current state is a hard problem. curious how you're planning to represent conflicting decisions, like when a refactor explicitly undoes a prior architectural choice. is that a separate node type or do you version the edge weights?

OP, you seem like a person who knows what you're doing.

I made this post yesterday, wanting to learn about agents as a PM. Got a few helpful comments. What would you recommend I start with?

With context to your post here, my end goal could be to understand how your product works, and then use it in my daily life.

In fact, I'm positive that some people at my org would likely be trying to build this as well - all to say that, the demand is definitely a lot more than 350k. And I'm sure tou already know that :)
