What problem it solves

AI coding agents need precise code context without repeatedly reading broad files or surrounding code. Gortex turns indexed repositories into a queryable knowledge graph so agents can retrieve symbols, call chains, contracts, and impact relationships through supported development interfaces.

Key features

• Graph-native code context — Repositories are indexed into a persistent knowledge graph containing functions, classes, call chains, HTTP routes, and cross-service relationships. Agents can query this structure instead of loading complete files.

  Source: README

• Broad language coverage — Code is parsed across 257 languages and grammars through tree-sitter analysis, with enhanced resolution for a set of widely used languages.

  Source: README

• Cross-repository contract analysis — Multiple repositories can share one graph, with references and call chains resolved across repository boundaries. The project detects and normalizes HTTP, gRPC, GraphQL, messaging, WebSocket, environment-variable, OpenAPI, and Temporal workflow contracts.

  Source: README, docs

• Agent and IDE integrations — The project exposes graph capabilities through CLI, MCP, HTTP, and a web interface. Its initialization flow can configure detected coding assistants and add repository-level MCP configuration, hooks, and community routing.

• Local, dependency-free operation — Gortex runs as a single static binary for macOS, Linux, and Windows, with its analysis components operating in-process. It does not require a network connection or model download to begin using the indexed graph.

Quick start

Copied verbatim from the project's README.

# macOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://get.gortex.dev | sh

# Windows (PowerShell)
irm https://get.gortex.dev/install.ps1 | iex

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

Who it may suit

This project may suit developers using AI coding agents who need repository-aware context, symbol lookup, impact analysis, and cross-repository contract discovery. It may also suit teams that want to expose a local code graph through MCP, an API, or a web interface.

Topics to discuss

• Which graph queries should agents use by default during implementation and review?

• How should cross-repository contract matching represent uncertain or incomplete evidence?

• Which language-specific extractors or resolution rules would add the most value?
