What it does
GitNexus (45k Github stars) is a Knowledge Graph Kernel that unifies every codebase in your org into one source of truth your coding agents can query. It resolves your code into a deterministic graph, so agents get exact callers, imports, and impact instead of embedding guesses, across every repo and SCM you run. On our public benchmark (https://www.akonlabs.com/benchmarks), coding agent runs 51% cheaper with GitNexus connected. It works with any agent over MCP.
GitNexus indexes any codebase into a knowledge graph of every dependency, call chain, cluster, and execution flow, so AI agents never miss code.
A real codebase is tens of thousands of symbols tangled across files, packages, and repos. Agents that grep their way through it miss dependencies, break call chains, and ship blind edits. GitNexus lets the model walk resolved execution flows instead of grepping file after file. On DeepSWE (a single-issue benchmark that can't even exercise multi-repo graphs or impact analysis), reading process-by-process alone fixed 68.4% of issues against 37.0% with no graph, on fewer tokens and fewer steps. The savings are a side effect of reading code the right way. GitNexus parses every file with Tree-sitter and resolves imports, call chains, field types, and return types across the codebase:…from akonlabs.com

Git for AI AgentsMay 2026 · github.com · ▲129hi guys. been working on something i think is fundamentally missing in today's workflow with ai agents. vcs. i find myself struggling with questions that agents can't answer like "why did you do it?", "when did u delete this folder? why?", etc. or trying to /rewind (after a /compact...) or basically `bisect` to find when and why something was done by the agent in the current / previous session. just like git did for code, i think we are the same core capabilities with ai agents so... i developed an open source solution for that (currently supporting claude code) would love to…

Hi HN! We just launched Verdent, an AI coding agent that actually plans before it codes, tests its own work, and delivers production-ready results without you having to clean up after it. tl;dr Check out the website [1] and read the story [2] - The problem: Current AI tools dump code and leave you to debug. You ask for "build a login endpoint" and get a passwordless JWT mess that doesn't fit your project. We've talked to hundreds of engineers who are frustrated with having to micromanage AI output. - What we built: Verdent works more like a senior engineer. It asks clarifying questions…

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
