|
> [!TIP]
|
|
> **A huge thank you to the community!** The support for Understand-Anything has been incredible. If this tool saves you a few minutes of digging through complexity, that's all I wanted. 🚀
|
|
|
|
**You just joined a new team. The codebase is 200,000 lines of code. Where do you even start?**
|
|
|
|
Understand Anything is a [Claude Code Plugin](https://code.claude.com/docs/en/plugins-reference#plugins-reference) that analyzes your project with a multi-agent pipeline, builds a knowledge graph of every file, function, class, and dependency, then gives you an interactive dashboard to explore it all visually. Stop reading code blind. Start seeing the big picture.
|
|
|
|
> **Graphs that teach > graphs that impress.**

## ✨ Features
|
|
|
|
> [!NOTE]
|
|
> **Want to skip the reading?** Try the [live demo](https://understand-anything.com/demo/) in our [homepage](https://understand-anything.com/) — a fully interactive dashboard you can pan, zoom, search, and explore right in your browser.
|
|
|
|
### Explore the structural graph
|
|
|
|
Navigate your codebase as an interactive knowledge graph — every file, function, and class is a node you can click, search, and explore. Select any node to see plain-English summaries, relationships, and guided tours.

|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
### Understand business logic
|
|
|
|
Switch to the domain view and see how your code maps to real business processes — domains, flows, and steps laid out as a horizontal graph.

|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
### Analyze knowledge bases
|
|
|
|
Point `/understand-knowledge` at a [Karpathy-pattern LLM wiki](https://gist.github.com/karpathy/442a6bf555914893e9891c11519de94f) and get a force-directed knowledge graph with community clustering. The deterministic parser extracts wikilinks and categories from `index.md`, then LLM agents discover implicit relationships, extract entities, and surface claims — turning your wiki into a navigable graph of interconnected ideas.

## 🚀 Quick Start
|
|
|
|
### 1. Install the plugin
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
/plugin marketplace add Lum1104/Understand-Anything
|
|
/plugin install understand-anything
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 2. Analyze your codebase
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
/understand
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
A multi-agent pipeline scans your project, extracts every file, function, class, and dependency, then builds a knowledge graph saved to `.understand-anything/knowledge-graph.json`.
|
|
|
|
### 3. Explore the dashboard
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
/understand-dashboard
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
An interactive web dashboard opens with your codebase visualized as a graph — color-coded by architectural layer, searchable, and clickable. Select any node to see its code, relationships, and a plain-English explanation.
|
|
|
|
### 4. Keep learning
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Ask anything about the codebase
|
|
/understand-chat How does the payment flow work?
|
|
|
|
# Analyze impact of your current changes
|
|
/understand-diff
|
|
|
|
# Deep-dive into a specific file or function
|
|
/understand-explain src/auth/login.ts
|
|
|
|
# Generate an onboarding guide for new team members
|
|
/understand-onboard
|
|
|
|
# Extract business domain knowledge (domains, flows, steps)
|
|
/understand-domain
|
|
|
|
# Analyze a Karpathy-pattern LLM wiki knowledge base
|
|
/understand-knowledge ~/path/to/wiki
|
|
```
|

## 📦 Share the Graph with Your Team
|
|
|
|
The graph is just JSON — **commit it once, and teammates skip the pipeline**. Good for onboarding, PR reviews, and docs-as-code.
|
|
|
|
> **Example:** [GoogleCloudPlatform/microservices-demo (fork)](https://github.com/Lum1104/microservices-demo) — Go / Java / Python / Node reference with a committed graph.
|
|
|
|
**What to commit:** everything in `.understand-anything/` *except* `intermediate/` and `diff-overlay.json` (those are local scratch).
|
|
|
|
```gitignore
|
|
.understand-anything/intermediate/
|
|
.understand-anything/diff-overlay.json
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Keep it fresh:** enable `/understand --auto-update` — a post-commit hook incrementally patches the graph so each commit lands with a matching graph. Or re-run `/understand` manually before releases.
|
|
|
|
**Large graphs (10 MB+):** track with **git-lfs**.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git lfs install
|
|
git lfs track ".understand-anything/*.json"
|
|
git add .gitattributes .understand-anything/
|
|
```
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## 🔧 Under the Hood
|
|
|
|
### Multi-Agent Pipeline
|
|
|
|
The `/understand` command orchestrates 5 specialized agents, and `/understand-domain` adds a 6th:
|
|
|
|
| Agent | Role |
|
|
|-------|------|
|
|
| `project-scanner` | Discover files, detect languages and frameworks |
|
|
| `file-analyzer` | Extract functions, classes, imports; produce graph nodes and edges |
|
|
| `architecture-analyzer` | Identify architectural layers |
|
|
| `tour-builder` | Generate guided learning tours |
|
|
| `graph-reviewer` | Validate graph completeness and referential integrity (runs inline by default; use `--review` for full LLM review) |
|
|
| `domain-analyzer` | Extract business domains, flows, and process steps (used by `/understand-domain`) |
|
|
| `article-analyzer` | Extract entities, claims, and implicit relationships from wiki articles (used by `/understand-knowledge`) |
|
|
|
|
File analyzers run in parallel (up to 5 concurrent, 20-30 files per batch). Supports incremental updates — only re-analyzes files that changed since the last run.
