You just joined a new team. The codebase is 200,000 lines of code. Where do you even start?

Understand Anything is a Claude Code Plugin that analyzes your project with a multi-agent pipeline, builds a knowledge graph of every file, function, class, and dependency, then gives you an interactive dashboard to explore it all visually. Stop reading code blind. Start seeing the big picture.

The goal isn't a graph that wows you with how complex your codebase is — it's a graph that quietly teaches you how every piece fits together.

✨ Features

[!NOTE] Want to skip the reading? Try the live demo in our homepage — a fully interactive dashboard you can pan, zoom, search, and explore right in your browser.

Explore the structural graph

Navigate your codebase as an interactive knowledge graph — every file, function, and class is a node you can click, search, and explore. Select any node to see plain-English summaries, relationships, and guided tours.

Understand business logic

Switch to the domain view and see how your code maps to real business processes — domains, flows, and steps laid out as a horizontal graph.

Analyze knowledge bases

Point /understand-knowledge at a Karpathy-pattern LLM wiki and get a force-directed knowledge graph with community clustering. The deterministic parser extracts wikilinks and categories from index.md, then LLM agents discover implicit relationships, extract entities, and surface claims — turning your wiki into a navigable graph of interconnected ideas.

🚀 Quick Start

1. Install the plugin

/plugin marketplace add Egonex-AI/Understand-Anything
/plugin install understand-anything

Using a local model? For privacy or enterprise setups, point your platform at a local model provider such as Ollama — follow their integration guide to change the model provider.

2. Analyze your codebase

/understand

A multi-agent pipeline scans your project, extracts every file, function, class, and dependency, then builds a knowledge graph saved to .ua/knowledge-graph.json. (Projects that already have a .understand-anything/ directory keep using it — it stays the data directory when present, so nothing needs migrating.)

Heads up on token usage: The initial /understand analyzes your whole codebase and can consume a significant number of tokens on large projects. We recommend running it on a token plan / subscription, or using a local model (see above) for initialization. Subsequent runs are incremental by default — only changed files are re-analyzed — so they use far fewer tokens.

Localized output: Use --language to generate content in your preferred language:

# Generate Chinese content (知识图节点描述和 Dashboard UI)
/understand --language zh

# Supported languages: en (default), zh, zh-TW, ja, ko, ru

On the first run in a project — when you don't pass --language and no language is stored yet — /understand detects the language you're conversing in. If it isn't English, it asks you to confirm (or override) before generating; English conversations are unaffected. Your choice is saved to .ua/config.json and reused on every later run.

The --language parameter affects:

• Node summaries and descriptions in the knowledge graph
• Dashboard UI labels, buttons, and tooltips
• Guided tour explanations
