What is Ummon?
Ummon is a code analysis tool that builds knowledge graphs from codebases. It indexes code, maps relationships between code entities, and uses LLMs to identify business entities and concepts, bridging the gap between technical and business understanding.
How to use Ummon?
Ummon can be installed using cargo install ummon. It's used via the command line to index codebases (ummon index /path/to/codebase), query the knowledge graph (ummon query "show all authentication functions"), and generate AI-assisted recommendations (ummon assist "implement a user registration function"). Configuration is primarily done through command-line flags, with environment variables used for sensitive information like API keys.
