Your AI Coding Agent Is Wasting Tokens
Most AI coding tools like Claude Code or Codex reread the same files every new session
On large projects, that burns tokens fast and gets expensive
I recently tested Graphify, and the idea is pretty smart
Instead of making the AI repeatedly scan hundreds of files, Graphify builds a knowledge graph of your codebase once
After that, the agent can navigate the graph directly instead of rereading everything again
A few things worth knowing:
- Works best on bigger repos, around 200+ files
- Supports code, docs, SQL, scripts, images, and more
- Automatically updates with git hooks
- Open source and community-driven
One thing though: don’t believe the “70x token reduction” claims
In real projects, ~8% to 20% savings is more realistic
Still useful if you use AI coding tools daily
Setup is straightforward:
- Install uv
- Run uv tool install graphify
- Inside your project, run /graphify
or if you are non-technical just tell your Claude Code to install this
If you work on large codebases with AI agents every day, this is worth trying
