Excited to announce that Ix just hit 1k stars! This is such a surreal milestone and I am excited to see how it continues to grow!

接手一个陌生项目，最费时间的往往不是写代码，而是先搞懂它。

Ix 把整个代码仓库变成一张可查询的“知识地图”：

① 基于 tree-sitter，支持 26 种语言
② 自动整理符号、调用、导入等关系
③ 数据本地持久化，不用每次重新分析
④ 可以查询组件作用、追踪数据流，还能分析改动影响范围
简单说，就是把原本靠人翻代码、猜逻辑的过程，变成直接查询。

人能用，AI Agent 也能用，特别适合接手大型陌生代码库。

@bkdgiffug Thanks for a shout out would love any feedback!

@0x_why85 @bkdgiffug Thank you hope you enjoy!

@ZXuanyuan70333 @bkdgiffug Ix goes beyond mapping code relationships. It ranks and packages the most relevant context down to specific files, symbols, and line ranges so agents get what they need without exploring the whole graph.

@shuizhuyu @bkdgiffug Let us know!! We’re still improving every day so it’ll only get better

[ian hock @ianhock2]

@araseb_ Code graph

[ian hock @ianhock2]

@YaelGolanjaj @samueljmcd Yeah right now we’re working on getting solid rcs and working on connectors so it can use everyday software that way as it understands who you are it can do things like send emails or find job opportunities etc! How has asmi ai been

[ian hock @ianhock2]

@DaniellaReujra @bkdgiffug It really does

[ian hock @ianhock2]

@winnerineast @bkdgiffug Graft gives agents a lightweight map of a repo. Ix builds a more granular graph of the code and its relationships to pull precise context.

[ian hock @ianhock2]

@bkdgiffug Hope you enjoy we keep building!!

[ian hock @ianhock2]

@Taniyatweets_ A little bit of everything

[ian hock @ianhock2]

@samongaro_ Exactly idk if you’ve used ix but it helps a lot with less mistakes it lets the ai actually understand the system as a whole blast radius etc

[ian hock @ianhock2]

@samueljmcd Yeah it’s a cloud based ai secretary that’s whole design is based on ix graphs and it acts for you based on who you are what you do etc it’s pretty sick it’s in alpha rn but looks promising

[ian hock @ianhock2]

@kamilbaranek_ We’re lowkey doing both right now like our software helps devs understand their code as well as helps agents understand it with just graph queries and it helps ship faster

[ian hock @ianhock2]

@Taniyatweets_ Gotta be notepad++

[ian hock @ianhock2]

@uday_devops Nah I dont think itll replace it but it will replace LLMs where we were using them poorly or in unnecessary places
