**Up to 50× fewer tokens per response.** See [BENCHMARK.md](BENCHMARK.md) or reproduce it yourself.
> Built for 16 AI coding agents (Claude Code, Kiro, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code / Copilot, Continue.dev, Cline, OpenCode, Antigravity, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, Zed, Aider, Kilo Code, OpenClaw, Hermes). One install configures every one detected on your machine — see [docs/agents.md](docs/agents.md).
Gortex Web UI — force-directed knowledge graph visualization

## Why it matters
- **50× fewer tokens per response** — graph-native lookups beat naive file reads. Agents read the symbol they need, not the 500-line file around it.
- **Sub-millisecond impact analysis** — a precomputed depth-3 reach index turns blast-radius queries into O(seeds × reach) map lookups. Safe to ask "what breaks if I change this?" on every edit.
- **Cross-repo by default** — N repos in one graph; contracts, references, and call chains span repo boundaries with evidence-gated resolution.
- **Zero external dependencies** — single binary, everything in-process. No network, no model download to get started.
## Install
```bash
# macOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://get.gortex.dev | sh
# Windows (PowerShell)
irm https://get.gortex.dev/install.ps1 | iex
```
Detects OS/arch, verifies SHA256 + cosign, installs to PATH. Re-run to upgrade. Homebrew, `.deb` / `.rpm` / `.apk`, scoop, signed binaries, and from-source builds: [docs/installation.md](docs/installation.md).
## Quick Start
```bash
gortex install # one-time machine setup (MCP, skills, slash commands)
gortex daemon start --detach # background daemon
gortex track ~/projects/myapp # add a repo
cd ~/projects/myapp && gortex init # per-repo: .mcp.json, hooks, community routing
```
Your AI assistant now uses graph queries. Full 15-minute walkthrough: [docs/onboarding.md](docs/onboarding.md).
## Highlights
- **257 languages** — three tiers (bespoke tree-sitter, regex, forest-backed signatures) plus Jupyter and Databricks notebooks → [docs/languages.md](docs/languages.md)
- **100+ MCP tools, 16 resources, 3 prompts** — symbol lookup, call chains, blast radius, dataflow, clone detection, refactoring, code actions → [docs/mcp.md](docs/mcp.md)
- **Semantic search default-on** — baked GloVe-50d (3.8 MB embedded), hybrid BM25 + vector + RRF, zero deps; opt-in MiniLM / Ollama / OpenAI → [docs/semantic-search.md](docs/semantic-search.md)
- **Multi-repo workspaces** — cross-repo symbol resolution, contract matching, impact analysis, per-session isolation → [docs/multi-repo.md](docs/multi-repo.md)
- **Speculative execution** — `preview_edit` / `simulate_chain` answer "what would change if I applied this WorkspaceEdit?" without touching disk
- **Live editor overlays** — push unsaved buffers as a shadow graph; tools read through it. Branching for parallel speculative sessions
- **GCX1 wire format** — published, round-trippable. **−27 % tokens vs JSON** at same fidelity → [docs/wire-format.md](docs/wire-format.md)
- **Long-living daemon** — one process serves every IDE window; live fsnotify, on-disk snapshots, sub-second restart, OS-supervised lifecycle
- **9 LLM providers (optional)** — local llama.cpp, Anthropic, OpenAI, Ollama, Claude / Codex CLI subprocess, Gemini, Bedrock, DeepSeek → [docs/llm.md](docs/llm.md)
- **HTTP server + Web UI** — versioned `/v1/*` API + MCP 2026 Streamable HTTP; standalone Next.js 15 UI with five 3D graph modes → [docs/server.md](docs/server.md)
- **Composable safety** — `verify_change`, `check_guards`, `audit_agent_config` flag broken callers, guard violations, stale docs before they ship
- **PR review, end to end** — `gortex prs` triages open PRs (per-PR blast radius, merge-order conflicts via shared communities, AI-ranked queue, reviewer suggestions); `gortex review` emits line-anchored findings with a BLOCK/REVIEW/APPROVE verdict from a graph-grounded rulepack; MCP tools (`pr_risk`, `get_pr_impact`, `review`, `review_pack`, `post_review`, …) expose it to agents → [docs/cli.md](docs/cli.md)
- **Agent integrations (16)** — `gortex init` configures every detected coding assistant on the machine → [docs/agents.md](docs/agents.md)

## Cross-Repo API Contracts
Gortex auto-detects API contracts across repos and matches providers to consumers, surfaced via the `contracts` MCP tool and the web UI Contracts page.
| Contract type | Detection | Provider | Consumer |
|--------------|-----------|----------|----------|
| **HTTP routes** | Framework annotations (gin, Express, FastAPI, Spring, …) | Route handler | HTTP client calls (`fetch`, `http.Get`) |
| **gRPC** | Proto service definitions | Service RPC | Client stub calls |
| **GraphQL** | Schema type/field definitions | Schema | Query/mutation strings |
| **Message topics** | Kafka / RabbitMQ / NATS / Redis pub/sub | Publish calls | Subscribe calls |
| **WebSocket** | Event emit/listen patterns | `emit()` | `on()` |
| **Env vars** | `os.Getenv`, `process.env`, `.env` files | `Setenv` / `.env` | `Getenv` / `process.env` |
| **OpenAPI** | Swagger / OpenAPI spec files | Spec paths | (linked to HTTP routes) |
| **Temporal workflows** | Go / Java SDK annotations | Activity / workflow function | `ExecuteActivity` / `ExecuteChildWorkflow` |
Contracts are normalised to canonical IDs (e.g. `http::GET::/api/users/{id}`) and matched across repos to detect orphan providers / consumers and mismatches. See [docs/contracts.md](docs/contracts.md).
## Scale — battle-tested on large repos
Measured on an Apple Silicon laptop with the default CGO build.
| Repository | Files | Nodes | Edges | Index time | Throughput | Peak heap |
| ---------- | ----: | ----: | ----: | ---------: | ---------: | --------: |
| [torvalds/linux](https://github.com/torvalds/linux) | 70,333 | 1,690,174 | 6,239,570 | ~3 min | 300 files/s | 5.07 GB |
| [microsoft/vscode](https://github.com/microsoft/vscode) | 10,762 | 204,501 | 808,902 | ~1 min | 143 files/s | 580 MB |
| zzet/gortex (self) | 430 | 5,583 | 53,830 | 3.4s | 127 files/s | 52 MB |
Parsing dominates wall time (65–80 %); reference resolution and search-index build scale sub-linearly.
## Token savings dashboard
`gortex savings` reports tokens saved vs naive file reads — per-call, per-session, and cumulative across restarts, priced in USD against the headline model.
```text
Gortex Token Savings
====================
Cost avoided: $168.69 (claude-opus-4) across 1,878 calls · 11,246,094 tokens saved
