Your coding agent says it updated every caller. Check.
Your AI agent claims it updated every call site. blastline check queries a code graph for what still references the symbol, with file:line evidence — and refuses to certify.

Four releases since launch: cross-repo seams, C/C++, base-graph automation, a safety-audit loop that runs on every merge, and the dispatch barrier that cut Go selections by a third without losing a single test.
Blastline scored 6/12 on tokio and it looked like a recall crisis. A dependency-filtered oracle showed five of the six "misses" depended on nothing — and chasing the one real miss uncovered a macro-blindness bug in CGraph. Tokio reachability went 0.59 → 0.91.
Blastline picks the tests a diff actually reaches by querying a CGraph code graph — deterministic, fail-open, benchmarked on 80 historical commits. Now open source.
CGraph now extracts Rust — structs, traits, functions, and call edges including method calls — via a pinned tree-sitter grammar, with honest v1 limits.
Every CGraph answer is stamped with a merkle content root of the indexed source, and reads can pin that root — so a stale index errors instead of lying.
A safe-refactoring workflow on a real repo: pin the node with query, size the blast radius with impact, explain surprise dependents with path — before editing.
How CGraph keeps a code graph current as you edit: content-hashed fold-ins within a couple of seconds, and why a branch switch becomes one full rescan.
cgraph daemon install keeps a resident code-graph daemon warm for every repo you track — auto-discovered, restarted on crash, started at login via launchd.
Which MCP tools does your coding agent actually use? CGraph records every daemon op in a ledger; cgraph stats rolls up counts, latency, and zero-hit rate.
Checkpoint a coding session into the code graph and recall it after /clear or a daemon restart. How CGraph stores durable, code-linked memory that never pollutes retrieval.
Layer prose, concepts, and design intent onto a deterministic code graph — without the binary ever calling an LLM. How CGraph plans chunks and merges host-authored semantic fragments.
Fuse per-repo code graphs into one queryable cross-service graph: declare the wire contract, anchor it to real code, and trace blast radius across services.
RAG for code: how CGraph gathers a neighborhood around a symbol and packs it into an LLM token budget with a knapsack, returning an inspectable result.
Code graphs, LSP, and ctags answer different questions about a codebase. A decision guide to when each one wins, and where the three usefully overlap.
CGraph extraction is deterministic: the same tree yields the same graph. That makes a code graph diffable in CI with the one-shot CLI and plain diff tooling.
CGraph writes the same code graph in six shapes — JSON, HTML, SVG, an Obsidian vault, Cypher, and a call-flow view. Here is when to reach for each export.
Give a coding agent your repo as a queryable graph over MCP instead of dumping raw files — precise answers, fewer tokens, and a one-line Claude Code setup.
Find the blast radius of a code change in one query. CGraph keeps a resolved graph warm in a daemon, so "what breaks if I change this?" returns in about 10ms.
CGraph exposes eight MCP tools that let a coding agent query a codebase as a graph. What each tool answers, and when an agent should reach for each one.
CGraph parses 11 languages with vendored tree-sitter grammars, then resolves imports, calls, and relations into one deterministic code graph. Stage by stage.
We measured CGraph against Graphify and against the grep-and-read loop agents use today: 12–198x faster builds, a 15.8x faster warm query, and ~82% fewer tokens on realistic navigation tasks — with the caveats that matter.
CGraph is an open-source code-intelligence engine that builds a queryable graph of any repository — a self-hosted alternative to proprietary code-search and analysis tools.
