[0.9.4] - 2026-05-24

Added

• Framework-aware route resolution — request → route → handler → service flows now resolve end-to-end across the supported stacks. Added or fixed routing for Express (inline arrow handlers → services), Rails, Spring (Java + Kotlin; bare and class-prefixed mappings), Django/DRF (router.register → ViewSet), Laravel (Controller@method), Flask/FastAPI (decorator stacks, empty-path routers, Flask-RESTful add_resource), Gin/chi (group-var routing), ASP.NET (feature-folder + bare attribute routes), Drupal, Rust (Axum chained methods, actix builder API), Vapor (Swift grouped routes), Play (conf/routes), Vue/Nuxt SFC templates, Svelte/SvelteKit, and React Router (<Route> JSX + object data-router).
• Dynamic-dispatch flow synthesis — codegraph_trace, codegraph_callees, and codegraph_explore now follow flows that have no static call edge. Bridged channels: callback/observer registration, EventEmitter (on/emit), React re-render (setState → render) and JSX children, Flutter setState → build, C++ virtual overrides, and Java/Kotlin interface → implementation dispatch (e.g. Spring @Autowired svc.list() → the impl). Each synthesized hop is labeled inline in trace with where it was wired up.
• CODEGRAPH_MCP_TOOLS — trim the exposed MCP tool surface. Set it to a comma-separated list of tool names (e.g. trace,search,node,context) to expose only those codegraph tools over MCP; unset exposes all of them. Names match on the short form, so trace and codegraph_trace are equivalent. Lets you constrain an agent to a minimal surface (or A/B-test tool selection) without editing the client's MCP config. Inert by default.
• Release archives now ship with a SHA256SUMS file, and the npm launcher verifies the bundle it downloads against it — a mismatch aborts before anything runs. Releases published before this change have no checksum file, so the verification is skipped (not failed) when none is available.

Changed

• codegraph_trace now returns a self-contained flow dossier. Each hop on the path is shown with its full body inline (previously just the call-site line), and the destination's own outgoing calls are appended — so one trace call usually answers a "how does X reach Y" flow question without a follow-up codegraph_explore/codegraph_node/Read. Measured across real repos: fewer tool calls and lower cost than the prior path-only output, with no wall-clock regression.
• codegraph_node and codegraph_trace now emit line-numbered source (cat -n style, matching codegraph_explore and Read), so an agent can cite or edit exact lines without re-reading the file just to recover line numbers.
• codegraph_explore now leads with the execution flow when its query names the symbols of a flow. Agents call explore far more than trace, passing a bag of symbol names that usually spans the flow they're investigating (PmsProductController getList PmsProductService list PmsProductServiceImpl); explore now finds the call path among those named symbols — riding synthesized dynamic-dispatch edges (callback / React re-render / JSX child / interface→impl) — and shows it first. So a flow question answered through explore gets the trace-quality path without the agent having to switch tools. Scoped to the named symbols (no wrong-feature wandering) and bridge-capped (no god-function fan-out); absent when the query is fuzzy or has no connected chain.

Fixed

• Static-extraction & resolution correctness fixes underpinning the framework work above: C++ inheritance (base_class_clause was unhandled, so C++ extends edges were missing), Dart method body ranges (methods were extracted signature-only), a Python builtin-name handler guard (handlers named index/get/update were silently dropped), and an explore output-budget regression that under-returned source on god-file repos.

• Orphaned codegraph serve --mcp processes after a parent SIGKILL. When the MCP host (Claude Code, opencode, …) was force-killed — OOM killer, a kill -9, a container teardown — the child kept running indefinitely on Linux, holding inotify watches, file descriptors, and the SQLite WAL. The kernel doesn't propagate parent death to children, and the stdin end/close handlers we relied on don't always fire. The MCP server now polls process.ppid and shuts down the moment it changes from the value observed at startup; the poll interval is CODEGRAPH_PPID_POLL_MS (default 5000, 0 disables). Resolves #277.

• codegraph: no prebuilt bundle for <platform> after installing through a registry mirror. Installing @colbymchenry/codegraph from a registry that hadn't mirrored the matching per-platform package — most often the npmmirror/cnpm mirrors, but any lazily-syncing mirror or corporate proxy can do it — left every command failing with no prebuilt bundle for <platform>. The runtime ships as a per-platform optionalDependency, and npm treats an optional package it can't fetch as a success and silently skips it, so the bundle simply went missing. The launcher now self-heals: when the platform bundle isn't installed, it downloads the same archive from GitHub Releases (cached under ~/.codegraph/bundles/ for next time) and runs that — so a global install works even on a mirror that never carried the platform package. Set CODEGRAPH_NO_DOWNLOAD=1 to disable the network fallback, or CODEGRAPH_DOWNLOAD_BASE=<url> to point it at your own mirror of the release archives; the standalone install.sh remains the no-Node alternative. Resolves #303.

• install.sh failing with 403 / "could not resolve latest version" on shared or cloud hosts. The standalone installer resolved the latest release through the GitHub API, whose unauthenticated limit is 60 requests/hour per IP — routinely exhausted on cloud devboxes and CI where many users share an address, returning 403 (issue #325). It now resolves the version from the releases/latest web redirect, which isn't rate-limited (and still falls back to the API). CODEGRAPH_VERSION also accepts a bare 0.9.4 in addition to v0.9.4. Resolves #325.

[0.9.3] - 2026-05-22

Added

• codegraph uninstall command. Cleanly removes CodeGraph from every agent it's configured on — Claude Code, Cursor, Codex CLI, opencode, and Hermes Agent — in one step. It asks up front whether to remove the global config (~/.claude, ~/.codex, …) or just this project's local config (no flags required), then prints exactly which agents it touched so you can see what changed. --location, --target, and --yes are accepted for scripted / non-interactive use. It removes only what install wrote (MCP server entry, instructions block, permissions) and leaves your .codegraph/ index alone (use codegraph uninit for that). Resolves #313 — previously the only cleanup path was an npm preuninstall hook that the published bundle never shipped, so npm uninstall -g left every agent pointing at a CodeGraph MCP server that no longer existed.

Fixed

• Fatal process out of memory: Zone crash while indexing large projects. On Node.js 22 and 24 — including CodeGraph's own bundled runtime — running codegraph index / codegraph init on a large multi-language repo could abort the entire process partway through parsing with Fatal process out of memory: Zone, even with tens of GB of RAM free (the failure is in a V8-internal compilation arena, not the JS heap). The cause is V8's "turboshaft" optimizing WASM compiler exhausting its Zone budget while compiling tree-sitter's large WebAssembly grammars on a background thread. CodeGraph now runs with V8's --liftoff-only, which keeps grammar compilation on the baseline compiler and never reaches the optimizing tier, eliminating the crash; indexing output is otherwise unchanged. The bundled launcher passes the flag directly, and any other launch path (from source, npx, a globally linked dev build) re-execs once with it automatically. Resolves #298 and #293. (Node 25 stays blocked — its variant of this V8 bug is not resolved by --liftoff-only.)
• Cursor uninstall left an orphaned .cursor/rules/codegraph.mdc. It stripped the rule body but left the file and its description: CodeGraph … frontmatter behind. The dedicated rules file is now deleted outright on uninstall, while any content you added outside CodeGraph's markers is kept.

[0.9.2] - 2026-05-21

Added

• Installer target: Hermes Agent (Nous Research). codegraph install now supports Hermes Agent — it writes the mcp_servers.codegraph entry and ensures platform_toolsets.cli includes mcp-codegraph in $HERMES_HOME/config.yaml, so Hermes can drive the CodeGraph knowledge graph like the other agents.
• Framework support: Drupal 8/9/10/11 — CodeGraph now detects Drupal projects (via a drupal/* dependency in composer.json) and adds three levels of intelligence:
  • Route extraction: *.routing.yml files emit a route node per route, linked by a references edge to the _controller, _form, or entity-handler class/method, so querying a controller method surfaces the URL route that binds it.
  • Hook detection: hook implementations in .module, .install, .theme, and .inc files are detected via docblock (Implements hook_X()) with a module-name-prefix fallback. Each emits a references edge to the canonical hook_X name so codegraph_callers("hook_form_alter") returns every implementation across modules.
  • Resolution: _controller/_form FQCNs resolve to their PHP class/method nodes.
    New yaml/twig languages are tracked at the file level, the Drupal PHP extensions (.module/.install/.theme/.inc) are indexed with the PHP grammar, and web/core, web/modules/contrib, web/themes/contrib are excluded by default. Resolves #268.

Changed

• Zero-config indexing that respects .gitignore. CodeGraph no longer has a config file. It indexes every file whose extension maps to a supported language and honors your .gitignore everywhere: in git repos via git itself, and in non-git projects (e.g. a freshly-scaffolded app before git init) by reading .gitignore files directly — root and nested, the same way git does (via the ignore library, so negation/anchoring/nested rules all behave correctly). To keep something out of the graph, add it to .gitignore. Behavior change: committed files that are not gitignored are now indexed even under vendor/, Pods/, or a committed dist/ — previously a hardcoded exclude list skipped those names; now .gitignore is the single source of truth. Resolves #283.

Fixed

• Windows: npm i -g @colbymchenry/codegraph then any codegraph command failed with spawnSync …\codegraph.cmd EINVAL. The npm launcher spawned the bundle's .cmd file directly, which modern Node refuses to do on Windows (the CVE-2024-27980 hardening — seen on Node 24). The launcher now invokes the bundled node.exe against the app directly, so codegraph works on Windows regardless of your Node version. Resolves #289.

Removed

• .codegraph/config.json and the entire config surface. Every field was either inert or now redundant with .gitignore:
  • languages/frameworks never affected indexing (languages are detected per file from extensions; frameworks are auto-detected). languages was also broken — its validator only knew the original 8 languages, so setting it to anything newer (C#, PHP, Ruby, C/C++, Swift, Kotlin, Dart, Vue, Scala, Lua, …) threw Invalid configuration format.
  • extractDocstrings/trackCallSites/customPatterns were never read by any extractor.
  • include is now derived from the supported language extensions, exclude is replaced by .gitignore, and maxFileSize (1 MB) is a constant.

Breaking (library API): the CodeGraphConfig type, the config option on CodeGraph.init(), and the getConfig()/updateConfig()/getConfigPath exports are gone. Existing .codegraph/config.json files are simply ignored. The .codegraphignore marker is no longer supported — use .gitignore.

Security

• MCP session marker no longer follows symlinks (CWE-59). Every codegraph_context call writes a codegraph-consulted-* marker into the system temp dir; the previous write followed symlinks, so on a multi-user system another local user could pre-plant that path as a symlink and redirect the write onto a victim-writable file. The marker is now opened with O_NOFOLLOW and mode 0600, and a planted symlink is refused rather than followed. Resolves #280.

0.9.1 - 2026-05-21

Fixed

• Standalone installers (curl … | sh, irm … | iex): the bundled launcher failed with exec: …/node: not found because it didn't resolve the symlink the installer puts on your PATH. Installing on a machine with no Node now works.
• npm: @colbymchenry/codegraph-linux-x64 is now published — the 0.9.0 release silently shipped 6 of 7 packages, so npm i -g on linux-x64 couldn't find its bundle. The release pipeline now verifies every package reached the registry (and is idempotent), so a release can't pass green-but-broken again.

0.9.0 - 2026-05-21

🎉 Self-contained: CodeGraph bundles its own runtime — install anywhere, on any Node (or none)

No more database is locked. No more native build failures. No more "WASM fallback active."

CodeGraph used to need better-sqlite3, a native module compiled against your exact
Node version. When that build failed (common on Windows and locked-down machines) it
silently dropped to a slow WASM SQLite build with no WAL — the root cause of the
intermittent database is locked errors on concurrent MCP tool calls
(#238). That entire class of
problem is gone: CodeGraph now ships a self-contained Node runtime and uses Node's
built-in node:sqlite (real SQLite, full WAL + FTS5).

• ✅ Zero native compilation — nothing to build, ever; nothing to rebuild when Node changes.
• ✅ Runs on any Node version — or with no Node at all. Install via the standalone installers with no Node present, or keep using npm/npx on any version (your Node only launches the bundled runtime).
• ✅ database is locked fixed at the root — real WAL means readers never block on a writer.
• ⚡ 5–10× faster than the old WASM fallback for anyone who was stuck on it.

# macOS / Linux — no Node required
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/colbymchenry/codegraph/main/install.sh | sh
# Windows (PowerShell) — no Node required
irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/colbymchenry/codegraph/main/install.ps1 | iex
# or, if you have Node (any version):
npm i -g @colbymchenry/codegraph

Added

• Standalone installers — one-line install with no Node.js required: curl -fsSL .../install.sh | sh (macOS/Linux) and irm .../install.ps1 | iex (Windows). They fetch the matching self-contained bundle from GitHub Releases and put codegraph on your PATH.
• Lua: CodeGraph now indexes Lua (.lua) — functions, methods (table t.f and t:m definitions become methods with a t::f receiver-qualified name), local variables, require(...) imports, and the call edges between them. Querying a Lua project (Neovim plugins, Kong, OpenResty, game code) now surfaces its modules, methods, and call graph.
• Luau (#232): CodeGraph now indexes Luau (.luau), Roblox's typed superset of Lua — everything Lua extracts, plus type / export type aliases, typed function signatures, generics, and Roblox instance-path require(script.Parent.X) imports.

Changed

• SQLite backend is now Node's built-in node:sqlite (real SQLite, WAL + FTS5), shipped inside a bundled Node runtime. This fixes the concurrent-read database is locked errors (#238) at the root and removes the native build step entirely.
• npm i -g / npx now install a self-contained bundle. The main package is a tiny shim; the runtime ships as per-platform optionalDependencies, so the install works on any Node version (your Node only launches the bundle).
• codegraph status now reports the effective journal mode (wal vs not), so a database is locked report is triageable at a glance.

Removed

• better-sqlite3 (optional native dependency) and node-sqlite3-wasm (WASM fallback) — along with the native-build banner, the WASM fallback path, and the no-WAL lock retries they required. The dependency tree now has zero native addons.

Fixed

• Installer: re-running codegraph install now removes the broken auto-sync hooks that pre-0.8 versions wrote to Claude Code's settings.json. Those builds added a Stop → codegraph sync-if-dirty hook (and a PostToolUse → codegraph mark-dirty partner); both subcommands were later removed from the CLI, so Claude Code reported Stop hook error: ... unknown command 'sync-if-dirty' on every turn. The cleanup is surgical — only codegraph's own hook entries are stripped, so unrelated hooks sharing the same file or event (e.g. a GitKraken gk ai hook run hook) are left untouched — and it also runs on uninstall, so the npm preuninstall step fully reverses a legacy install. Re-run codegraph install once on an affected machine to clear the error.

[0.8.0] - 2026-05-20

Added

• Framework routes (NestJS): CodeGraph now recognises NestJS projects and emits route nodes — each linked by a references edge to its handler method — across all four transport layers: HTTP controllers (the @Controller prefix joined with @Get/@Post/@Put/@Patch/@Delete/ @Head/@Options/@All, including empty @Controller()/@Get()), GraphQL resolvers (@Query/@Mutation/@Subscription), microservice handlers (@MessagePattern/@EventPattern), and WebSocket gateways (@SubscribeMessage, prefixed with the gateway namespace). Detected automatically from any @nestjs/* dependency in package.json. Querying a controller method or resolver now surfaces the route that binds it. Resolves #220.
• MCP / explore: codegraph_explore source sections now carry line numbers (cat -n style <num>\t<code>, matching the Read tool). This lets the agent cite file:line straight from the explore payload instead of re-opening the file just to find a line number — the dominant residual cost on precise-tracing questions. In an isolated A/B (answer a "which exact line" question with the relevant code already in the payload), the no-line-numbers arm spent 2 file Reads + a grep recovering the line number while the line-numbered arm answered with zero follow-up tool calls. Payload cost is small (~3-5%). Set CODEGRAPH_EXPLORE_LINENUMS=0 to disable.
• MCP / watcher: CodeGraph now skips the live file watcher on WSL2 /mnt/* drives, where recursive fs.watch is slow enough to break MCP startup (see Fixed). When the watcher is off, codegraph init / codegraph install offer to keep the index fresh via git hooks (post-commit, post-merge, post-checkout) that run codegraph sync in the background — accept for automatic refresh on commit / pull / checkout, or decline and sync by hand. Either way you're told the index stays frozen until it's re-synced. New controls: CODEGRAPH_NO_WATCH=1 (or codegraph serve --mcp --no-watch) forces the watcher off anywhere; CODEGRAPH_FORCE_WATCH=1 overrides the WSL auto-detect when your /mnt setup is actually fast. codegraph uninit removes any hooks it installed.

Changed

• MCP / agent guidance: CodeGraph now tells agents to answer "how does X work" / architecture questions directly — codegraph_context, then one codegraph_explore for the surfaced symbols — instead of delegating to a file-reading sub-agent or a grep+read loop. The server instructions and the installed instruction files (CLAUDE.md, .cursor/rules/codegraph.mdc, AGENTS.md) previously suggested spawning a sub-agent for explore-class questions, which produced the opposite, more expensive behavior: the sub-agent reads files regardless of the index, so CodeGraph became overhead stacked on top of the reads. In rigorous N≥4-per-arm benchmarks this cut the cost of an architecture question by ~42–47% versus a no-CodeGraph agent on medium and large repos (Excalidraw ~600 files, VS Code ~10k), with equal-or-better, file:line-cited answers and ~6× fewer tool calls; on a tiny repo (~25 files) it's a wash, since native grep is already trivially cheap there.
• MCP / codegraph_node: includeCode=true on a class/interface/struct/enum now returns a compact member outline (fields + method signatures + line numbers) instead of the entire class body — which could be thousands of characters and was rarely needed in full. Functions and methods still return their full body; request a specific member for its source.
• Minimum Node.js is now 20 (was 18). Node 18 is end-of-life and the native SQLite binding (better-sqlite3 12.x) no longer ships a Node 18 prebuilt binary. Node 22 LTS and Node 24 get the native backend out of the box; on other Node versions CodeGraph still runs via the WASM fallback (slower, but functional). Node 25+ remains blocked (V8 WASM JIT crash, see #81).
• MCP / explore: codegraph_explore output is now adaptive to project size. The tool used to apply a fixed 35KB cap regardless of how large the codebase was, which on small projects (~100 files) produced bigger responses than the agent's native grep+Read flow would have — exactly the scenario reported in #185. The budget now scales with indexed file count: small projects (<500 files) cap at ~18KB and skip the "Additional relevant files" / completeness / explore- budget reminders that earn their keep on bigger codebases; medium (<5,000) caps at ~13KB; large (<15,000) keeps the historical ~35KB; very large goes up to ~38KB. A new per-file char cap also prevents a single file with many adjacent symbols from collapsing into one whole-file dump (the Alamofire Session.swift case from #185). Per-file cluster selection ranks clusters that contain a query entry point ahead of dense declaration blocks, and whole-file "envelope" nodes (a class/struct that spans most of the file) are excluded from clustering so the methods the query asked about aren't buried under the container's opening lines. Measured against the same repos used in the README benchmark, end state with line numbers on: Alamofire ~60% smaller per call, Excalidraw ~32%, VS Code ~12%. Agent-trust floor still holds — the Relationships section, scored cluster selection, and structured-source output are all retained. Thanks to @essopsp for the repro.
• Search ranking (Kotlin / Swift / Scala / C#): test files in these languages are now correctly de-prioritized in codegraph_search, codegraph_context, and codegraph affected. Detection previously only recognized snake_case/.test.-style names plus a handful of Java suffixes, so CamelCase test files (FooTest.kt, BarTests.swift, BazSpec.scala, QuxTestCase.cs) and Gradle / Kotlin-Multiplatform / Xcode test source-set directories (jvmTest/, commonTest/, androidTest/, iosTest/, integrationTest/) were treated as production code and could outrank the real implementation. Detection now matches capital-led *Test / *Tests / *Spec / *TestCase filenames and source-set directories — deliberately capital-led so lowercase look-alikes like latest.kt and manifest.kt are not misclassified.

Fixed

• MCP / explore: codegraph_explore output is now hard-capped to its adaptive size budget. It could previously overrun (e.g. ~30K against a 28K cap) once the relationship map and trailer sections were appended; the oversized payload then sat in the agent's context and was re-read on every later turn.
• Sync / status: git-untracked files are no longer reported as pending "Added" forever. After codegraph sync indexed a newly-created untracked source file, codegraph status kept listing it under Pending Changes and every subsequent sync re-indexed it from scratch — even though its symbols were already queryable. Change detection trusted git status and counted every untracked (??) entry as new without checking the index, but indexing a file doesn't make git track it, so the file stayed ?? and got re-added on each run. CodeGraph now hash-compares untracked files against the index the same way it does tracked files: a file counts as "added" only if it's missing from the index, "modified" if its contents changed, and is skipped otherwise. Closes #206. Thanks to @15290391025 for the report.
• Indexing: codegraph init -i now finds source inside nested, independent git repositories — separate clones living inside the workspace that are not git submodules (common in CMake "super-repo" layouts). When the top-level workspace is itself a git repo, git ls-files reports an embedded repo only as an opaque subdir/ entry and never lists its files, so indexing from the workspace root reported "No files found to index" even though indexing each sub-repo individually worked. CodeGraph now detects these embedded repos and indexes their tracked and untracked source, honoring each repo's own .gitignore. Closes #193. Thanks to @timxx for the report.
• Native SQLite backend on Node 24: indexing on Node 24 always dropped to the 5-10x-slower WASM backend, printing a better-sqlite3 unavailable warning that npm rebuild better-sqlite3 / xcode-select --install could not clear (#203). The bundled better-sqlite3 was pinned to a v11 release that ships no prebuilt binary for Node 24's ABI (node-v137), so every Node 24 install silently degraded — and because CodeGraph is usually installed globally, the npm install / npm rebuild people ran in their own project never touched CodeGraph's copy. CodeGraph now requires better-sqlite3 ^12.4.1, whose prebuilds include Node 24, so a fresh install on Node 22 or Node 24 gets the native backend with no compiler. On an already-broken install, reinstall CodeGraph (e.g. npm install -g @colbymchenry/codegraph) to pull the new binding; codegraph status should then report Backend: native. Thanks to @Finndersen for the report.
• MCP: tools no longer fail with "CodeGraph not initialized" when the index actually exists. This hit clients that launch the MCP server from a directory other than your project and don't report a workspace root in initialize (some IDE/JetBrains-family integrations) — the server fell back to its own working directory, missed the project's .codegraph/, and returned the misleading "Run 'codegraph init' first" on every call. The only workaround was passing projectPath to each tool by hand. Now, when no project path is supplied, the server asks the client for its workspace root via the standard MCP roots/list request (when the client advertises the roots capability) before falling back to the working directory — so detection just works for spec-compliant clients. When it still can't resolve a project, the error is now actionable: it names the directory it searched and tells you to pass projectPath or add --path /abs/project to the server's MCP config args, instead of pointing you at a re-init you don't need. Closes #196. Thanks to @zhangyu1197 for the report and the projectPath workaround.
• MCP: the server no longer hangs on startup under WSL2 when the project lives on an NTFS /mnt/* mount. Setting up the recursive file watcher there took tens of seconds — every directory read crosses the Windows/9p boundary — which blew past the host's initialization timeout (opencode's 30s), so the codegraph tools silently never appeared, even on small projects. This is the file-watcher half of the #172 startup fix: that one moved the database/WASM open off the handshake, but the watcher setup was still on the critical path. CodeGraph now auto-skips the watcher on those mounts, with manual and git-hook sync fallbacks (see Added). Closes #199. Thanks to @mengfanbo123 for the precise root-cause analysis and workaround.
• Installer (Claude Code): project-local installs (Just this project) now write the MCP server to .mcp.json in the project root — the file Claude Code actually reads for project-scoped servers. Previously they wrote .claude.json, which Claude Code ignores, so the codegraph tools silently never appeared and you had to rename the file by hand to make it work. Re-running codegraph install (or codegraph init) on an affected project migrates the stale .claude.json entry into .mcp.json automatically; uninstall cleans up both. Global (All projects) installs were unaffected — they correctly target ~/.claude.json. Closes #207. Thanks to @Jhsmit for the report and the workaround.
• MCP: source-omission markers in codegraph_explore and codegraph_context output are now language-neutral (... (gap) ..., ... (trimmed) ..., ... (truncated) ...) instead of C-style // comments, which were misleading inside Python, Ruby, and other non-C fenced source blocks.

0.7.10 - 2026-05-19

Fixed

• MCP: tools no longer silently fail to appear in clients on slow filesystems (Docker Desktop VirtioFS on macOS, WSL2). The initialize handshake was blocking on opening the SQLite database and bootstrapping the tree-sitter WASM runtime, which on slow I/O could exceed Claude Code's ~30s handshake timeout — leaving the codegraph process alive but unresponsive and no tools visible. The handshake now returns immediately and defers project open to the background; tool calls wait on the in-flight init rather than racing it with a second open. Closes #172. Thanks to @sashanclrp for the original report and detailed reproduction, and @sgrimm for the decisive wire capture that isolated the actual root cause.
• CLI: terminal output no longer mojibakes on Windows PowerShell / cmd.exe during codegraph index and codegraph sync. The shimmer progress renderer writes from a worker thread via fs.writeSync(1, …) to keep the animation smooth while the main thread is busy in SQLite, which bypasses Node's TTY-aware UTF-8→codepage conversion — so glyphs like │ ◆ — were emitted as raw UTF-8 bytes and reinterpreted as the console's OEM codepage (CP437, CP936, …), producing strings like 鋍?[0m 鉒?[0m Scanning files 鈥?N found. CodeGraph now picks an ASCII glyph set on Windows by default (| * - instead of │ ◆ —); set CODEGRAPH_UNICODE=1 to opt back into the Unicode glyphs (e.g. on pwsh 7 with UTF-8 codepage), or CODEGRAPH_ASCII=1 on any platform to force ASCII (useful for log collectors / non-TTY pipelines). Closes #168. Thanks to @starkleek for the report and to @Bortlesboat for the initial PR.
• MCP / search: module-qualified symbol lookups now resolve. The MCP tools (codegraph_node, codegraph_callees, codegraph_impact, …) accept module::symbol (Rust / C++ / Ruby), Module.symbol (TS / JS / Python), and module/symbol (path-style) — multi-level forms (crate::configurator::stage_apply::run) and Rust path prefixes (crate, super, self) are handled. Closes #173. Thanks to @joselhurtado for the detailed reproduction. Three underlying fixes:
  • The FTS5 query builder now treats :: as a token separator instead of stripping it to nothing, so stage_apply::run no longer collapses to the unsearchable stage_applyrun.
  • matchesSymbol falls back to a file-path containment check when qualifiedName doesn't carry the module hierarchy (Rust file-level functions, Python free functions in a package): a run in src/configurator/stage_apply.rs now matches stage_apply::run because stage_apply appears as a path segment.
  • Qualified lookups that don't match the qualifier no longer fall through to fuzzy text matches — stage_apply::nonexistent_fn returns null instead of resolving to an unrelated rollback in the same file.

0.7.9 - 2026-05-17

Fixed

• opencode: install actually wires up the MCP server now. v0.7.7 wrote ~/.config/opencode/opencode.json, but opencode reads opencode.jsonc by default — so the codegraph entry never showed up in any opencode session. The installer now prefers an existing .jsonc, falls back to .json when only that exists, and creates .jsonc for greenfield installs. Re-run codegraph install --target=opencode after upgrading so the entry lands in the file opencode actually reads.

Added

• opencode: installer now writes AGENTS.md (global ~/.config/opencode/AGENTS.md, local ./AGENTS.md) with the same codegraph usage guidance the other agents already received. Without it, opencode's model would call native Grep instead of the codegraph_* tools it could see in its MCP list.
• User comments and formatting in opencode.jsonc survive install / re-install / uninstall round-trips — surgical edits via jsonc-parser rather than full-file rewrites.

0.7.7 - 2026-05-17

Added

• Multi-agent installer (closes #137). codegraph install now opens with a multi-select prompt for Claude Code, Cursor, Codex CLI, and opencode — detected agents are pre-checked. Each writes its native MCP config + instructions file (e.g. ~/.cursor/mcp.json + .cursor/rules/codegraph.mdc, ~/.codex/config.toml + ~/.codex/AGENTS.md, ~/.config/opencode/opencode.json). The runtime MCP server was already agent-agnostic; this brings the installer to parity.
• Non-interactive install flags for scripting / CI: --target=<csv|auto|all|none>, --location=<global|local>, --yes, --no-permissions, --print-config <id>.
• codegraph init now auto-wires project-local agent surfaces for any agent configured globally. In practice: Cursor's .cursor/rules/codegraph.mdc is dropped on init so a single global codegraph install works in every project you open — no per-project re-install needed.

Fixed

• Cursor: globally-installed codegraph reported "not initialized" in every workspace because Cursor launches MCP-server subprocesses with the wrong working directory and doesn't pass rootUri in the MCP initialize call. We now inject --path into Cursor's MCP args — absolute path for local installs, ${workspaceFolder} for global installs.

Changed

• Agent-instructions template is now agent-agnostic. The previous template was inherited from the Claude-only era and prescribed "spawn an Explore agent" — a Claude Code-specific concept that confused Cursor's and Codex's agents and caused them to fall back to native grep even with codegraph available. The new template adds explicit "trust codegraph results, don't re-verify with grep" guidance and a clear tool-by-question matrix. Applies to ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md, .cursor/rules/codegraph.mdc, and ~/.codex/AGENTS.md.
• codegraph install prompt order: agent picker is now step 1, before the PATH-install and location prompts.
• Disambiguated "global" wording in install prompts ("Install codegraph CLI on your PATH?" vs "Apply agent configs to all your projects, or just this one?") — both used to say "Global" and read as duplicates.

Internal

• New AgentTarget interface in src/installer/targets/ — adding a 5th agent (Continue, Zed, Windsurf, …) is a new file + one entry in registry.ts.
• Hand-rolled TOML serializer for Codex (src/installer/targets/toml.ts) — no new dependency, scoped to the [mcp_servers.codegraph] table only, sibling tables and [[array_of_tables]] preserved verbatim.
• +47 parameterized contract tests across the 4 targets — install idempotency, sibling preservation, uninstall reverses install, byte-equal re-runs return unchanged, partial-state recovery for Codex.

Thank you.

0.7.6 - 2026-05-13

Fixed

• codegraph CLI failing with zsh: permission denied: codegraph after a fresh global install. The published 0.7.5 tarball shipped dist/bin/codegraph.js without the executable bit, so the shell refused to run it through the npm symlink. The build now chmod +x's the binary before packing.

Already on 0.7.5? Either upgrade to 0.7.6, or unblock yourself in place:

chmod +x "$(npm root -g)/@colbymchenry/codegraph/dist/bin/codegraph.js"
