Codebase intelligence shell and SDK — index once, query forever, works with Claude, GPT, Ollama, and any AI

Project description

JSAT — JaySoft AI Tools

License: MIT Python 3.10+ PyPI version

Codebase intelligence for AI sessions — index once, query forever, works with any AI.


What is JSAT?

Every AI session starts with the same problem: you spend the first ten minutes re-explaining your architecture, re-pasting function signatures, and re-describing how services talk to each other. JSAT solves this by building a persistent graph of your codebase once — functions, classes, files, services, API endpoints, database tables, Kafka topics, and every relationship between them — and making that context instantly available to any AI you use.

JSAT works as a CLI, a Python SDK, and an MCP server that plugs directly into Claude Code. If Claude Code CLI is installed, JSAT uses it automatically with no API key required. For everything else — Anthropic API, OpenAI, Gemini, Ollama, LM Studio — one command switches the provider.


Quick Start

pip install jsat

# Wire JSAT into Claude Code (if installed — no API key needed)
jsat connect claude

# Index your project
cd your-project/
jsat index .

# Open Claude with full codebase context and JSAT tools available
jsat claude

Inside Claude Code you can then use slash commands:

/jsat-query what does the payment service do?
/jsat-blast-radius src/payment/refund.py
/jsat-security
/jsat-incident "500 errors spiking on checkout"

Installation

JSAT ships as a minimal core with optional extras. Install only what you need.

Extra What's added Approx. size When to use
(none) / core tree-sitter parsers, SQLite graph, CLI ~80 MB Starting point for any setup
local Ollama client +small Local models via Ollama
standard Semgrep, OpenAPI/AsyncAPI validator, more language parsers (Java, Ruby, Rust) +medium Security reviews, API contract checks
team Neo4j, Qdrant, Redis, Graphiti (includes standard) +large Shared graph across a team
anthropic Anthropic Python SDK +small Claude API (key required)
openai OpenAI Python SDK +small GPT-4o, GPT-4o-mini (key required)
ci PyGitHub, SARIF tools (includes standard) +small CI/CD pipelines, GitHub Actions
all Everything above +large Full feature set
pip install jsat                   # core only
pip install 'jsat[local]'          # + Ollama
pip install 'jsat[standard]'       # + security analysis, OpenAPI validation
pip install 'jsat[team]'           # + Neo4j, Qdrant, Redis
pip install 'jsat[anthropic]'      # + Claude API SDK
pip install 'jsat[openai]'         # + OpenAI SDK
pip install 'jsat[all]'            # everything

AI Providers

JSAT auto-detects available providers at startup and picks the best one in priority order:

  1. Claude Code CLI — detected via which claude; no API key, no extra SDK, full tool calling
  2. Anthropic API — if ANTHROPIC_API_KEY is set and jsat[anthropic] is installed
  3. OpenAI — if OPENAI_API_KEY is set and jsat[openai] is installed
  4. Ollama — if ollama serve is running at localhost:11434
  5. LM Studio — if an OpenAI-compatible server is running at localhost:1234
  6. No AI — tools that don't need AI (indexing, blast radius, export) still work

Check what's available

jsat ai status        # shows all providers, which is active, and switch commands

Switch providers

jsat ai use ollama                        # free, local, no key
jsat ai use ollama --model qwen2.5-coder:7b
jsat ai use anthropic                     # needs ANTHROPIC_API_KEY
jsat ai use openai --model gpt-4o-mini    # needs OPENAI_API_KEY
jsat ai use lmstudio                      # any OpenAI-compat server at localhost:1234
jsat ai test                              # verify the configured provider works

Switch inside the JSAT shell

switch claude    → Claude Code CLI (no key) or Claude API
switch gpt       → GPT-4o
switch ollama    → local Ollama
switch haiku     → Claude Haiku
switch phi       → phi3:mini (fast, low RAM)
switch lmstudio  → LM Studio

Claude Code Integration

JSAT's tightest integration is with Claude Code. One command registers JSAT as an MCP server and installs /jsat-* slash commands. After that, Claude can call JSAT tools automatically — or you can invoke them explicitly.

Setup

jsat connect claude                       # project-level (this repo only)
jsat connect claude --scope global        # global (all Claude Code sessions)

Restart Claude Code. JSAT tools are now available.

Open Claude with JSAT context pre-loaded

jsat claude

Slash commands installed into Claude Code

Command What it does
/jsat-query <question> Natural language query over the indexed graph
/jsat-blast-radius <file or symbol> Trace downstream impact grouped by severity
/jsat-security [path] Security scan — Critical and High issues first
/jsat-incident <description> Root-cause hypotheses ranked by confidence
/jsat-index [path] Rebuild the codebase graph
/jsat-status Node and edge counts
/jsat-doctor Full health check
/jsat-ithinking <task> Run the IThinking structured planning framework for a task
/jsat-think <task> Alias for /jsat-ithinking — shorthand for quick invocation
/jsat-prompt-diff <query> Show raw input vs optimized prompt side by side

MCP tools Claude can call automatically

JSAT defines 47 MCP tool slots across 12 categories; 38 are currently wired and active in the MCP server. Highlights:

  • jsat__query — answer any codebase question
  • jsat__blast_radius_file, jsat__blast_radius_diff, jsat__blast_radius_symbol, jsat__blast_radius_topic
  • jsat__security_scan_file, jsat__get_auth_coverage, jsat__list_secrets, jsat__get_dependency_cves
  • jsat__investigate_incident, jsat__generate_runbook
  • jsat__check_breaking_changes, jsat__get_compat_score
  • jsat__validate_migration, jsat__suggest_zero_downtime
  • jsat__submit_for_review, jsat__get_high_confidence_bugs
  • jsat__ithinking_plan, jsat__ithinking_execute
  • jsat__prompt_optimize, jsat__prompt_diff

Connect to Cursor

jsat connect cursor        # writes to ~/.cursor/mcp.json

Prompt Optimizer

JSAT automatically optimizes every query through a 7-stage pipeline before sending it to the AI:

# Print the optimized prompt (inspect mode)
jsat prompt "improve the retry logic"

# Optimize + send to AI
jsat prompt --send "improve the retry logic"

# See what you typed vs what the AI actually received
jsat prompt --diff "improve the retry logic"

# Format, CoT, specific AI
jsat prompt --send --format code --ai claude "write a test for refund()"

Stages:

  1. Task classification (code_gen / refactor / review / debug / question / plan / test / security)
  2. Context injection from the JSAT graph (BFS, 70/30 recency split)
  3. Constraint injection from the knowledge base (ADRs, coding standards)
  4. Few-shot example selection (kNN over prompt history)
  5. Output format specification (code only / JSON findings / prose / numbered steps)
  6. Model-specific formatting (XML for Claude, Markdown for GPT, plain for Ollama)
  7. Token compression (example shortening → block removal → docstring stripping)

In the shell — every message is auto-optimized:

jsat [Claude Code (CLI)]> improve the retry logic

✦ Optimized refactor | 6→847 tokens (35% saved) | 3 ctx nodes | opt show to see diff

Claude: Here's the improved retry using tenacity...

Shell commands:

opt on        # enable auto-optimization (default)
opt off       # disable for the current session
opt show      # show raw input vs full optimized prompt side by side
opt history   # browse past optimization diffs

See before/after:

jsat> opt show

Shows both panels: raw input vs full optimized prompt with injected context, constraints, and model formatting.

Disconnect or remove

jsat disconnect claude                        # project-level
jsat disconnect claude --scope global         # global
jsat disconnect claude --scope all            # everywhere
jsat remove                                   # remove all JSAT artifacts from this repo

Tools Overview

# Tool Description
0 JSAT Shell Interactive REPL — run any tool directly, switch AI mid-session, no AI required
1 Directory Indexer Walks a repo, parses source with tree-sitter, writes nodes and edges to the graph
2 Test Intelligence Helper Finds test gaps, maps behaviors to coverage, generates unit/integration/contract tests
3 Feature Helper Answers "how do I add X?" using graph context — finds relevant files and patterns
4 Blast Radius Analyzer BFS over the graph to trace downstream impact; classifies edges as breaking/degraded/warning/safe
5 API Contract Validator Diffs OpenAPI/AsyncAPI specs, classifies breaking changes, scores backward compatibility (0–100)
6 Security Review Agent OWASP pattern scan, auth coverage gaps, hardcoded secret detection, dependency CVE lookup
7 Incident Investigation Helper Correlates an incident description against recent commits and graph topology; ranks root-cause hypotheses
8 Migration Safety Validator Validates migration files, estimates lock duration, generates zero-downtime migration plans
9 Multi-Model Code Review (true parallel dispatch) Dispatches a diff to multiple AI models simultaneously via ThreadPoolExecutor; surfaces only bugs confirmed by two or more models
10 Knowledge Base Builder Persistent searchable store of architectural decisions, runbooks, and tribal knowledge
11 Multi-Agent Orchestrator Decomposes a task and runs specialized sub-agents (understanding, generation, review, test, security, docs)
12 Export / Import System Portable zip snapshots of the full graph — share between machines, cache in CI, restore in seconds
13 Python SDK Programmatic access to every tool via from jsat import JSAT
14 IThinking Meta-Cognitive Layer Structured seven-phase reasoning: clarify, plan, context, assumptions, execute, reflect — with human approval gates

Multi-Model Review

Tool 9 dispatches the diff to all configured models in parallel, collects findings, and surfaces only those confirmed by two or more models. Configure the model list and timeout in .jsat/config.yaml:

review:
  models:
    - {provider: claude_cli, model: claude-sonnet-4-6}
    - {provider: ollama, model: qwen2.5-coder:7b}
  parallel_timeout_seconds: 90
  min_confidence: medium
  • parallel_timeout_seconds — per-review wall-clock deadline; any model that exceeds this is skipped and its absence is logged.
  • min_confidence — minimum agreement level to surface a finding: low (any model), medium (2+ models), high (all models).

Graph Schema

JSAT indexes these node types and relationship edges:

Nodes: function, class, file, service, endpoint, table, kafka_topic

Edges:

Edge Meaning
CALLS Function A calls function B
IMPORTS File A imports module B
READS_FROM Code reads from a table or topic
WRITES_TO Code writes to a table or topic
PRODUCES Service produces a Kafka message
CONSUMES Service consumes a Kafka topic
IMPLEMENTS Class implements an interface
INHERITS Class inherits from another
DEPENDS_ON Service depends on another service

Configuration

JSAT stores all state under .jsat/ in your repo root. The config file is .jsat/config.yaml.

jsat init                        # write starter config (solo profile)
jsat init --profile team         # team profile
jsat init --profile ci           # CI/CD profile

Key settings in .jsat/config.yaml:

graph:
  backend: sqlite          # sqlite (default) | neo4j (team profile)
  path: .jsat/graph/graph.db

embeddings:
  provider: local          # local | openai | none
  model: nomic-embed-code

ai:
  provider: ollama         # ollama | anthropic | openai | openai_compat | claude_cli | none
  model: llama3.2
  base_url: null           # for openai_compat (LM Studio, Gemini, etc.)

cache:
  backend: memory          # memory | disk | redis

indexer:
  languages: [python, javascript, go, java, ruby, rust]
  exclude_patterns: ["**/node_modules/**", "**/.git/**", "**/dist/**"]
  max_file_size_kb: 500

ithinking:
  enabled: true
  mode: interactive        # interactive | silent
  gate_level: medium       # low | medium | high

Profiles at a glance

Profile Graph AI Cache Use case
solo SQLite Ollama / llama3.2 Memory Individual developer, no external services
team Neo4j Claude API Redis Shared graph, team-wide knowledge base
ci SQLite None Memory GitHub Actions, no API keys, JSON logs
raspberry-pi SQLite Ollama / phi3:mini Disk Low-RAM devices, batch size 8

Config search order

JSAT finds its config by checking these locations in order (first found wins):

  1. Explicit path passed to JSAT(config=...) or --config flag
  2. $JSAT_CONFIG environment variable
  3. {repo}/.jsat/config.yaml (canonical)
  4. {repo}/.jsat.yaml (legacy)
  5. ./.jsat/config.yaml (CWD)
  6. ~/.config/jsat/config.yaml
  7. /etc/jsat/config.yaml
