SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

GitNexus Explorer helps you turn a codebase into an interactive knowledge graph so you can visually understand symbols, call chains, clusters, and execution flows without manually reading thousands of files.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Repo-to-knowledge-graph indexing: Indexes any target repository into a searchable .gitnexus/ graph (optionally with embeddings for semantic search).
  • Interactive web UI for exploration: Serves a browser-based interface to navigate architecture and relationships, suitable for sharing with others.
  • Cloudflare-tunneled remote access: Enables safe remote viewing of the same UI via a Cloudflare tunnel using a production web build and a same-origin proxy.

Quick Start

Clone and build GitNexus, index your target repo with GitNexus, start the GitNexus backend plus the proxy to serve the web UI, and optionally expose the UI remotely by running a Cloudflare tunnel pointing at the proxy port.

FAQPage Schema
How do I turn a codebase into a visual knowledge graph for dependency exploration?

You can turn a codebase into a navigable knowledge graph by indexing the repository into a searchable structure. This generates an interactive call-chain graph and clustering view to visually explore symbols and execution flows without manual file tracing.

How do I index a local git repository to map its architecture and call chains?

Indexing a local git repository requires Node.js and a local `.git` directory. The indexing process maps the codebase architecture into a searchable graph, enabling you to navigate interactive call chains and dependency clusters through a web UI.

Can I share an interactive code intelligence UI remotely using a Cloudflare tunnel?

Yes, you can share the interactive code intelligence UI remotely by running a production web build behind a same-origin proxy for `/api/*`. Exposing the proxy port through an optional Cloudflare tunnel enables safe remote viewing of the navigable graph.

What are the limitations of using a browser-based UI for navigating large repository graphs?

Browser-based UIs face scalability limits when rendering node-heavy graphs from large repositories. While the knowledge graph indexes the full codebase, interactive exploration performance may degrade if the visual dependency and call-chain nodes exceed typical browser rendering capacity.

Does codebase knowledge graph indexing work without semantic embeddings?

Codebase knowledge graph indexing works without semantic embeddings by mapping structural symbols and dependencies. Embeddings are optional and only required if you want to enable semantic search capabilities alongside the interactive call-chain and clustering visualizations.

Do I need a same-origin proxy to serve a production web UI for repository indexing?

Yes, a same-origin proxy for `/api/*` is required to serve the production web UI. This proxy ensures the interactive codebase graph interface and its backend API requests remain correctly routed during local exploration or remote Cloudflare tunnel access.
