What it is
Understand Anything is an open-source tool that turns codebases, knowledge bases, or documents into an interactive knowledge graph. It analyzes a project using a multi-agent pipeline, builds a graph of files, functions, classes, and dependencies, and provides an interactive dashboard to explore it visually. It supports domain views for business logic and knowledge-base analysis, and offers commands to run analyses, explore dashboards, and chat about the codebase.
How it works
The project uses Tree-sitter for deterministic structural analysis and LLMs for semantic interpretation, combining these outputs into a knowledge graph. A multi-agent pipeline orchestrates analysis with agents such as project-scanner and file-analyzer, with additional domain analysis in /understand-domain. The graph is saved (e.g., .ua/knowledge-graph.json) and can be explored via a dashboard. Language customization is supported via a --language flag, affecting node descriptions and UI labels. The system supports incremental updates and token-aware operation, with ability to run analyses locally or via a configured model provider.

Multi-Platform Installation
The README lists various platform-specific install paths, including Claude Code, Codex/OpenCode/OpenClaw, Copilot CLI, Gemini CLI, Pi Agent, Vibe CLI, and more, with install scripts and platform-specific notes. It also documents cursor and VS Code auto-discovery installs and a one-line installer for multiple targets.
Platform commands example
/plugin marketplace add Egonex-AI/Understand-Anything
/plugin install understand-anything
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Egonex-AI/Understand-Anything/main/install.sh | bash
# or with a specific platform
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Egonex-AI/Understand-Anything/main/install.sh | bash -s codex
iwr -useb https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Egonex-AI/Understand-Anything/main/install.ps1 | iex
The installer installs to a repository path and creates platform-specific symlinks; a restart is advised after installation.
