archwire

Architecture visualisation tool that uses LLMs to extract execution flows and concept models from any codebase, then renders them as interactive graphs.

Features

• Repo management — add local repos or clone from GitHub
• LLM-powered extraction — traces execution paths through source code
• Concept maps — hierarchical architecture visualisation with Cytoscape + ELK layout
• Flow diagrams — execution-path diagrams with branch diff overlays
• Diff viewer — Monaco-based side-by-side code diffs
• Chat — ask questions about the repo architecture

Quick start

pnpm install
pnpm dev

Opens the client at http://localhost:4300. The server runs at http://localhost:3001.

Requires an OpenAI-compatible LLM endpoint for extraction. Default: Ollama at localhost:11434.

Architecture

Monorepo with three packages:

• @archwire/core — shared TypeScript types
• @archwire/server — Express API handling repo management, LLM extraction, and data serving
• @archwire/client — SolidJS web UI with interactive graph visualisation
