Install DevLens in Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code

Runs npx -y @devlensio/cli on your machine. Read the scan report first; the gateway never runs local packages.

DevLens

Intelligent codebase visualizer.

Turn any TypeScript, JavaScript, Python, Go, Rust, or Java repository into a living, queryable graph — every node carries a functional summary, a technical summary, and a security assessment.

What is DevLens?

DevLens turns a codebase into a pre-built dependency graph. Instead of reading files one at a time, you (or your AI agent) query the graph: every component, class, function, route, struct, or trait is a node, and every connection is a typed edge (CALLS, IMPORTS, HANDLES, IMPLEMENTS, …). Each node carries:

  • Functional summary — what business purpose does this serve?
  • Technical summary — how does it work?
  • Security assessment — severity + explanation

This is the difference between an AI that re-reads your whole repo every session and an AI that already knows the architecture — architecture reviews, impact analysis, security audits, and onboarding take minutes, not hours.

Typical use cases:

  • Onboarding — a developer joining a new team sees the architecture, functional/ technical summaries, modules, and gotchas in minutes, not weeks.
  • Impact analysis — before touching a symbol, see its blast radius: what breaks if you change it?
  • Security reviews — every node carries a severity-ranked security assessment with real reach.
  • PR review — a review packet that explains the diff's impact, tests, and security delta.
  • AI agents — give Claude/Cursor/Kilo an MCP server + skill that queries the graph instead of re-reading files.

Supported languages

DevLens parses six languages with native parsers (no AI, no regex, no tree-sitter) and understands their frameworks:
