Understand your codebase instantly
The code graph indexes every function, import, and dependency. When you change something, it knows exactly what else might break — in under 5 seconds.

Discovery is the hidden cost of AI coding
Explore agents burn tokens
Each Explore agent spawns with ~20K tokens of overhead. Three agents for a single feature = 60K tokens before any code is written.
Agents miss systems
Pattern-based file search misses code that doesn't match expected naming. In one test, agents missed 8 existing systems that the graph found instantly.
45+ seconds per discovery
Multiple agents searching in parallel still takes 45+ seconds and produces 9,000 words of context. Graph queries return in milliseconds.
One graph. Every answer.
Composure parses your codebase with tree-sitter AST analysis across 8 languages. Every function, class, type, import, and test relationship is indexed in a SQLite database. Query it instantly — callers, dependencies, blast radius, entity scope — all without spawning a single agent.

Build the graph
Run /composure:initialize or /composure:build-graph. Parses all source files with tree-sitter, indexes entities and relationships into a SQLite database.
Query instead of exploring
Use semantic_search_nodes, get_impact_radius, query_graph, and entity_scope to find code instantly. No agent spawning needed.
Auto-updates on every edit
The PostToolUse hook incrementally updates the graph after every file write. It's always current — no manual rebuild needed.
Cross-project intelligence
With multi-project scope, query across 15+ codebases simultaneously. Find shared patterns, detect version drift, build templates from real data.
