One command gives AI agents instant codebase context. ~250 tokens replaces 50,000+ tokens of exploration. Auto-configures Claude Code, Cursor, Aider.

Stacklit

108,000 lines of code. 4,000 tokens of index.

One command makes any repo AI-agent-ready. No server, no setup.

Install and run

npx stacklit init

That is it. Downloads the binary, scans your codebase, generates the index, opens the visual map. One command.

Other install options:

npm install -g stacklit              # install globally, then run: stacklit init
go install github.com/glincker/stacklit/cmd/stacklit@latest

Or grab a binary from GitHub Releases (macOS, Linux, Windows).

CI / GitHub Action

Use glincker/stacklit-action to keep the index fresh automatically. Auto-commit on push, or gate PRs with check mode:

- uses: actions/checkout@v4
- uses: glincker/stacklit-action@v1        # auto-commit (default)
# or: with: { mode: check }               # fail PR if index is stale

Add permissions: contents: write to the job when using auto-commit mode.
