Mellos Mapping

English | 简体中文

A live, terminal-native map of bottom-up development for Claude Code, ChatGPT desktop Codex mode and Codex CLI.

While Claude builds your system, a split pane beside the conversation shows the system's layered dependency map: primitive layers at the bottom, dependency edges that may only point downward, ghost nodes for what is designed, a spinner on what is being built right now, and solid green for what is built and verified.

A real session: Claude Code on the left, the map pane on the right. L0 is verified, L1 just lit up, everything above is still a ghost.

Why

Most progress reporting is a task list — a top-down worldview. A Mellos map grows the other way: an upper node can only stand on nodes below it, and the picture makes the discipline visible:

intended structure as dashed ghost nodes first; you can veto a bad design while it is still only a picture.

• The ghost design appears before any code. Claude declares the whole

it doing right now, and on top of what?"

• The spinner is where Claude's attention is. One glance answers "what is

passing test run). If later work cracks a foundation, the node turns red — a cracked foundation under a spinning upper floor is the most honest status report there is.

• Done means verified. A node turns solid green only with evidence (a

corruption (an edge pointing upward, a duplicate rank). Workflow is Claude's discipline, defined in the bundled skill; violations are made visible, never silently blocked.

• The map is a ledger, not a judge. The tools refuse only structural
