Code-review-graph build-graph

Build or update the code review knowledge graph. Run this first to initialize, or let hooks keep it updated automatically.

Build Graph

Build or incrementally update the persistent code knowledge graph for this repository.

Steps

  1. Check graph status by calling the 

    list_graph_stats_tool
    MCP tool.

    • If the graph has never been built (last_updated is null), proceed with a full build.
    • If the graph exists, proceed with an incremental update.

  2. Build the graph by calling the 

    build_or_update_graph_tool
    MCP tool:

    • For first-time setup: 
      build_or_update_graph_tool(full_rebuild=True)
    • For updates: 
      build_or_update_graph_tool()
      (incremental by default)

  3. Verify by calling 

    list_graph_stats_tool
    again and report the results:

    • Number of files parsed
    • Number of nodes and edges created
    • Languages detected
    • Any errors encountered

When to Use

  • First time setting up the graph for a repository
  • After major refactoring or branch switches
  • If the graph seems stale or out of sync
  • The graph auto-updates via hooks on edit/commit, so manual builds are rarely needed

Notes

  • The graph is stored as a SQLite database (
    .code-review-graph/graph.db
    ) in the repo root
  • Binary files, generated files, and patterns in 
    .code-review-graphignore
    are skipped
  • Supported languages: Python, TypeScript/JavaScript, Vue, Go, Rust, Java, Scala, C#, Ruby, Kotlin, Swift, PHP, Solidity, C/C++
