Save Tokens with code-review-graph: An Open-Source Codebase Map for AI Coding
dr_cintas · x · 2026-08-03
code-review-graph is a local-first code intelligence graph designed for MCP and CLI. It builds a persistent map of your codebase to solve the issue of AI coding assistants (like Claude Code) consuming massive tokens by rereading the entire project after every edit.
By mapping files, functions, and their connections, the tool allows AI to read only what matters. This drastically reduces context usage and costs during code reviews and large-repo workflows. The project has currently amassed 28k stars on GitHub.
