Crate magellan 

Magellan: A dumb, deterministic codebase mapping tool

Magellan observes files, extracts symbols and references, and persists facts to sqlitegraph.

Position Conventions

Magellan uses tree-sitter position conventions for all symbol and reference data:

• Line positions: 1-indexed (line 1 is the first line)
• Column positions: 0-indexed (column 0 is the first character)
• Byte offsets: 0-indexed from file start

See MANUAL.md for detailed documentation.

Feature Flags

Backend Selection (Choose One)

Magellan supports two storage backends via sqlitegraph:

SQLite Backend (Default)

• sqlite-backend: Stable SQLite-based storage
  • Widely compatible, well-tested
  • Use for maximum compatibility

Native V3 Backend (Recommended)

• native-v3: High-performance native binary storage
  • 10-20× faster traversals than SQLite
  • Unlimited capacity, B+Tree indexing
  • Production-ready with sqlitegraph v2.0.1+

Feature Selection

# Default: SQLite backend
magellan = "2.3.0"

# Native V3 backend (recommended for performance)
magellan = { version = "2.3.0", default-features = false, features = ["native-v3"] }

Optional Features

• llvm-cfg: LLVM IR-based CFG extraction for C/C++ (requires clang)
• bytecode-cfg: Java bytecode-based CFG extraction (requires Java bytecode library)
