# trusty-analyze
[](https://crates.io/crates/trusty-analyze)
[](https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT)
Sidecar code-analysis daemon for [trusty-search](../trusty-search). Fetches chunk
corpora from the trusty-search daemon, runs static analysis, and serves results via
HTTP (port 7879) and MCP stdio.
## 📚 Documentation
Full documentation lives at the workspace top level in
[`docs/trusty-analyze/`](../../docs/trusty-analyze/): the
[research](../../docs/trusty-analyze/research/),
[sessions](../../docs/trusty-analyze/sessions/), and
[regression-testing](../../docs/trusty-analyze/regression-testing/) subdirs.
This README and the rustdoc stay in-crate; everything else lives under `docs/`.
## Installation
```bash
cargo install trusty-analyze
```
The installed binary is named `trusty-analyze`. The crate name on crates.io is
`trusty-analyze`.
## Quick Start
```bash
# trusty-search must be running first (hard runtime dependency)
trusty-search daemon
# Run the analyzer sidecar
trusty-analyze serve --search-url http://127.0.0.1:7878
# Analyze a named index
trusty-analyze analyze <index-id> --top-k 20
# Check liveness
trusty-analyze health
```
## Features
- Cyclomatic and cognitive complexity per chunk, file, and index
- Code smell detection with configurable thresholds and named categories
- Quality grade aggregation (A–F) per file and per index
- Git blame temporal decay scoring (stale high-complexity code surfaces first)
- Concept clustering (k-means over embeddings, BoW or neural)
- Facts store: `(subject, predicate, object)` knowledge triples, persisted in redb
- SCIP protobuf ingest for LSP-quality symbol data
- Full HTTP API + MCP stdio server (every endpoint has a tool equivalent)
## Claude Code Integration
Add to your project's `.mcp.json`:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"trusty-analyzer": {
"command": "trusty-analyze",
"args": ["serve", "--mcp"],
"env": {}
}
}
}
```
`trusty-search` must already be running. The analyzer performs a startup health
check against `http://127.0.0.1:7878/health` and exits with code 1 if
unreachable.
## MCP Tools
The MCP server registers **17 tools** (authoritative source: `src/mcp/mod.rs`
`tool_definitions`):
| `analyzer_health` | `GET /health` |
| `complexity_hotspots` | `GET /indexes/:id/complexity_hotspots` |
| `find_smells` | `GET /indexes/:id/smells` |
| `analyze_quality` | `GET /indexes/:id/quality` |
| `run_diagnostics` | (composite diagnostics run) |
| `list_facts` | `GET /facts` |
| `upsert_fact` | `POST /facts` |
| `delete_fact` | `DELETE /facts/:id` |
| `ingest_scip` | `POST /indexes/:id/scip` |
| `cluster_concepts` | `GET /indexes/:id/clusters` |
| `extract_graph` | knowledge-graph extraction |
| `extract_ner` | named-entity extraction (optional ONNX) |
| `list_entities` | enumerate extracted entities |
| `suggest_refactors` | refactor suggestions |
| `review_diff` | review a unified diff |
| `review_github_pr` | review a GitHub pull request |
| `deep_analysis` | combined deep-analysis pass |
## HTTP API
Port 7879. Requires trusty-search on port 7878.
```
GET /health
GET /indexes/:id/complexity_hotspots[?top_k=N]
GET /indexes/:id/smells[?category=<name>]
GET /indexes/:id/quality
POST /facts
DELETE /facts/:id
POST /indexes/:id/scip
```
## Configuration
| `TRUSTY_SEARCH_URL` | `http://127.0.0.1:7878` | trusty-search daemon address |
| `TRUSTY_ANALYZER_PORT` | `7879` | Analyzer listen port |
| `RUST_LOG` | `warn` | Tracing filter |
## Features Flag
| `ner` | Optional ONNX-backed named entity recognition |
## Architecture
The crate is a single `trusty-analyze` package containing the CLI binary
(`trusty-analyze`) and a library. All analysis engines, the HTTP server, and the
MCP stdio server live within this one crate. Shared types (complexity metrics,
code smells, knowledge-graph entities, facts) come from `trusty-common`.
```
trusty-search (port 7878) trusty-analyze (port 7879)

```
## Development
```bash
# Build
cargo build -p trusty-analyze
# Test
cargo test -p trusty-analyze
# Lint
cargo clippy -p trusty-analyze --all-targets -- -D warnings
```
