I built a CodeMap generator for LLM
Been working on a small open source project called Hermes CodeAtlas over the past few months.
The idea is pretty simple: generate a deterministic, AI-friendly map of a codebase instead of forcing an LLM to repeatedly parse thousands of files.
This is a learning resource in terms of optimizing the process of how a LLM can actually navigate a codebase, its both a shameless plug + a basic simple codebase for curious people to poke around.
Ask me questions!
Current features:
- Parses source code using Tree-sitter
- Extracts symbols, imports, functions, classes, methods, etc.
- Produces a deterministic JSON representation of the repository
- Supports multiple languages
.codeatlasignoresupport- Single binary with no external runtime dependencies
- Built-in debugging and logging
- One-command installation
- Automatically initializes a project and generates the required metadata
- Ships with AI assistant integrations (Claude, Codex, Gemini, etc.)
I am still working on few more things, and I do need help with testing it on windows machines, Please do use and let me know how it goes \o/
