Detect circular dependencies and layer violations by loading your multi-module project into the analysis workflow to construct a dependency graph, which identifies coupling issues and checks module hierarchies against defined architecture layers.

Correlating code churn with a dependency graph identifies architectural hotspots by highlighting highly coupled modules that experience frequent changes, enabling engineers to target refactoring efforts where instability and complexity overlap.

Yes, you can analyze software dependencies across multiple languages by parsing imports and requires statements to construct a unified dependency graph, which evaluates coupling metrics and detects cycles across the entire multi-module project.

Compute coupling metrics including Ca, Ce, Instability, and Abstractness by analyzing the dependency graph of your module hierarchies, cross-checking the resulting values against predefined architecture layers to evaluate module design quality.

You do not need SCIP indexes for basic dependency graph construction, but loading optional SCIP indexes enables deeper semantic analysis to enhance the detection of architectural violations and cross-module coupling issues.
