repoglyph 0.2.0

Generate an isometric city-skyline fingerprint banner (SVG) from a local git repository.

repoglyph

+Open Knowledge Format bundle generator showing repo churn, file change coupling, and structural fingerprint.

+Isometric repo-city banners from local git clone.

(Offline port of repoglyph.net; hosted (free) customization explorer and web-cached banners there.)

Install

uv tool install "repoglyph[png]"   # standalone CLI on PATH
pip install "repoglyph[png]"       # CLI in the active environment
uv add --dev "repoglyph[png]"      # project dev dependency (CI, hooks)

Each installs the repoglyph command. Python 3.12+. Drop the png extra for SVG-only output.

Usage

repoglyph                 # current repo w/ defaults
repoglyph ../project
repoglyph . --style skyline --palette neon

Writes <repo>/.glyph/<owner>_<repo>_<style>.svg, plus a PNG with the png extra.

All flags

Flag	Default	Meaning
--commits N	50	commits used for lit windows
--style NAME	oblique	oblique, skyline, or highrise
--palette NAME|FILE	light	built-in theme or palette JSON
--size WxH	1280x480	canvas size
--full	off	fit canvas to the whole city
--out FILE	auto	output SVG path
--out-dir DIR	<repo>/.glyph	folder for all outputs
--no-png	off	skip PNG output
--skip-commons	off	drop lockfiles from the city
--staged	off	draw HEAD + staged changes
--okf [DIR]	off	write an OKF context bundle
--skill	off	add a SKILL.md to the OKF bundle
--cache	off	save repo data for --from-cache

repoglyph --help for the rest.

Styles

• oblique: flat cabinet-oblique map (default)
• skyline: one building per file
• highrise: one tower per district, floors are subdirs

OKF

--okf writes markdown context files from the same repo data: an index, a repository summary, hotspots (churn ranking plus change-coupling hubs mined from commit history), and one file per district.

Add --skill and point it at a skills folder to ship the bundle as a self-updating map-of-the-codebase agent skill:

repoglyph . --okf .claude/skills/repo-map --skill

This repo

claude plugin marketplace add remsky/repoglyph-py
claude plugin install repoglyph@repoglyph

Limits

• Shows folder structure, not runtime architecture.
• Lit windows and coupling use the sampled commit window, not full history.
• File bytes proxy size.
