AgenticCode

AI-agent-optimized code analysis platform — parse, store, enrich, and query source code as a graph.

AgenticCode ingests source code (Natural/Software AG and Java), parses it into a unified AST, persists it in Neo4j, enriches it with semantic information (call graphs, DB accesses, data structures), and exposes everything through an agent-ready REST + MCP API.

Getting Started

Prerequisites: Java 21+, Maven 3.9+, Docker

# Clone and build
git clone https://github.com/your-org/agenticcode.git
cd agenticcode
mvn clean install

# Start Neo4j
docker run -p 7474:7474 -p 7687:7687 \
  -e NEO4J_AUTH=neo4j/agenticcode \
  neo4j:5

# Run in dev mode (hot reload)
cd ac-code-server && mvn quarkus:dev

The API is available at http://localhost:8787/api and the Neo4j browser at http://localhost:7474.

CLI

ac-cli is a standalone command-line client for ingesting source code and querying the graph, useful for bulk-loading a codebase or scripting agent workflows without going through HTTP directly.

# Build the CLI (produces an executable uber-jar)
mvn -pl ac-cli -am package

# Run it
java -jar ac-cli/target/ac-cli-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar --help

By default the CLI talks to http://localhost:8787. Override with -s/--server <url>, the AC_SERVER_URL environment variable, or the config file ~/.agenticcode/config.properties (key server.url, written automatically by connect).

Most commands operate on a project. Select one with -p/--project <name>, the AC_PROJECT environment variable, the config file (key project, written automatically by use), or by running use <project> in the interactive shell.

Interactive shell

Running the jar with no arguments starts a psql-like interactive shell with line editing and history (~/.agenticcode_history):

java -jar ac-cli/target/ac-cli-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar

AgenticCode interactive shell. Type 'help' for commands, 'exit' to quit.
agenticcode> connect http://my-server:8787
Connected to http://my-server:8787
agenticcode> project create my-app -d "My application"
agenticcode> use my-app
Using project my-app
agenticcode> callers MY-MODULE
[ ... ]
agenticcode> ingest ./src/main/natural
OK    ./src/main/natural/FOO.nat
...
agenticcode> exit

connect <url> sets the server for the rest of the session and persists it to the config file (overridden by -s on an individual command). use <project> does the same for the project (overridden by -p). help/? shows available commands, exit/quit ends the session.

Managing projects

# Create a project
java -jar ac-cli/target/ac-cli-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar project create my-app -d "My application"

# Update its description
java -jar ac-cli/target/ac-cli-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar project update my-app -d "New description"

# List all projects
java -jar ac-cli/target/ac-cli-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar project list

# Delete a project and all its ingested data
java -jar ac-cli/target/ac-cli-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar project delete my-app

Ingest files or folders

Recursively walks a file or directory; .java files are sent to /api/projects/{project}/ingest/java and .nat/.nsn files to /api/projects/{project}/ingest/natural. Files with other extensions are skipped.

# Ingest a single file into the selected project
java -jar ac-cli/target/ac-cli-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar ingest src/main/java/com/example/Foo.java

# Ingest an entire directory tree into an explicit project
java -jar ac-cli/target/ac-cli-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar ingest /path/to/natural-sources -p my-app

# Against a non-default server
java -jar ac-cli/target/ac-cli-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar ingest ./src -p my-app -s http://my-server:8787

Output shows OK/FAIL/SKIP/ERROR per file plus a summary line; the process exits non-zero if any file failed.

Query the graph

# Who calls this module?
java -jar ac-cli/target/ac-cli-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar callers MY-MODULE -p my-app

# What does this module call?
java -jar ac-cli/target/ac-cli-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar callees MY-MODULE -p my-app

# Which DB tables does this module read/write?
java -jar ac-cli/target/ac-cli-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar db-accesses MY-MODULE -p my-app

# Find an identifier across all modules
java -jar ac-cli/target/ac-cli-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar search-identifier myVariable -p my-app

# List all identifiers in the project
java -jar ac-cli/target/ac-cli-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar search-identifier -p my-app

Each query command prints the API's JSON response, pretty-printed. If no project is selected (no use, -p, AC_PROJECT, or config file entry), the command fails with an error.
