  • Hacker News
  • Is this compatible with Graphify-Labs/graphify, w/r/t existing output formats?
  • Interesting, thanks. Seeing agents querying compiled code using reflection to find references looks painful and inefficient. Made me want to help little buddy somehow, but had no idea how
  • I don't understand why Microsoft and JetBrains aren't shipping versions of this. It seems like exactly what Roslyn was designed for
  • Interesting! Have you tried it on any large code bases? I have to wonder if json is going do become unwieldy at the scale of millions of LOC - a SQLite db might be a better choice.
  • The tool recommends you to use this skill <https://github.com/zachsaw/graphify-csharp/blob/main/.agents...>, but I wonder if this is the right approach if one just want to use this as a consumer in a .net project. It seems very wordy, but wording like these

      "Read the relevant design documents under docs/ before changing architecture."
    
    makes me think that developing 'graphify the tool' and using 'graphify as a tool' are mixed up in the same document? How does an LLM keep track of both this gigantic skill and the user development problem at the same time?
  • Hey man, just wanted to say thanks! I pulled this down and adapted the skill for Unity development, keeping Graphify C# as an external analysis tool. My adapted skill isn’t publicly available yet, and I'm going to add it into my standard Unity Package development workflow to see if I can find some additional value in how the CLI and structured JSON make semantic information accessible to coding agents. I think this will help (maybe not on a full Unity game) but if you'r building multiple Unity Packages or have existing Unity Packages. Appreciate you sharing this!
  • I'm not sure when I would use something like this. My VS copilot already writes one-off scripts that use Roslyn to analyze code. I don't even have to prompt it to do this with gpt5.5+

    C#/.NET feels unreasonably effective as a target for LLMs. The reflection and compiler services are not found anywhere else and have profound effects that HN still seems to be taking massive naps on.

  • Love to see C# love. It's a great language. Super underrated in my opinion.

    Unions coming in .NET 11 / C# 15 are going to be great.
