NOMIK — The Living Blueprint

AI-native code intelligence graph. Scan once, query everything.

NOMIK builds a persistent Knowledge Graph of your entire codebase in Neo4j, then exposes it to AI assistants via MCP (Model Context Protocol). Instead of dumping files into a prompt, the AI queries a graph to retrieve exactly the relationships it needs — functions, classes, imports, call chains, DB operations, infrastructure, and more.

Quick Start

# Prerequisites: Node.js 20+, Docker
npm install -g @nomik-ai/cli

cd your-project/
nomik init                          # Config + Neo4j Docker + .env + project setup
nomik scan .                        # Build the knowledge graph
nomik setup-cursor                  # Connect to your IDE (or: setup-windsurf, setup-claude)
nomik watch .                       # (Optional) Live graph updates on save

Restart your IDE — the AI now has full graph-powered context.

What NOMIK Tracks

All extractors are import-aware — they resolve receiver variables from actual imports, not hardcoded names.

Code

• Functions, Classes, Imports/Exports — full AST extraction (TS, JS, Python, Rust)

• Call chains — intra-file, cross-file, obj.method(), callbacks, barrel re-exports

• Routes — Express, Fastify, NestJS, tRPC, gRPC, GraphQL (decorator + chain detection)

• Dead code, god files, duplicates — health detection with configurable thresholds

Data

• Database — Prisma, Supabase, Knex, TypeORM, raw SQL, EF/Django/Alembic migrations

• Redis — ioredis, @redis/client, @upstash/redis (read/write/delete classification)

• Job Queues — Bull/BullMQ, Bee-Queue, Agenda, pg-boss (producer/consumer edges)

Infrastructure

• HTTP Clients — axios, got, node-fetch, ofetch, undici, superagent, fetch()

• Message Brokers — KafkaJS, amqplib, NATS, AWS SQS/SNS, Google PubSub

• Tracing — OpenTelemetry, Datadog, Sentry (span creation tracking)

• Metrics — prom-client, OpenTelemetry (Counter/Gauge/Histogram/Summary)

• WebSockets — ws, @nestjs/websockets, uWebSockets.js, Socket.io (rooms/namespaces)

• Cron Jobs — node-cron, node-schedule, @nestjs/schedule, Agenda

• Feature Flags — LaunchDarkly, Unleash, Flagsmith, Split.io, GrowthBook

Config & Security

• Docker/K8s — Dockerfile, docker-compose, K8s manifests (Deployment, Service, Ingress)

• CI/CD — GitHub Actions, GitLab CI (jobs, steps, triggers)

• IaC — Terraform (.tf), CloudFormation/SAM, OpenAPI specs

• Secrets — AWS keys, GitHub tokens, Stripe keys, JWT, private keys, basic auth URLs

• Env vars — .env files, process.env.*, Python os.environ

• Swagger/OpenAPI — decorator enrichment + spec file parsing

• GraphQL schemas — .graphql/.gql file parsing

• Dependencies — package.json, requirements.txt

• Tests — .test./.spec./__tests__/ detection, mock target resolution

Python-Specific

• Redis, Celery tasks, Prometheus metrics, OpenTelemetry spans, Kafka/RabbitMQ/NATS

MCP Extras

Prompts (6 conversation starters)

nomik-onboard, nomik-review-change, nomik-health-check, nomik-explain-module, nomik-migration-plan, nomik-infrastructure

Resources (9 browsable endpoints)

nomik://stats, nomik://health, nomik://files, nomik://communities, nomik://onboard, nomik://schema, nomik://projects, nomik://infrastructure, nomik://guard

Role-Scoped Access

Set NOMIK_ROLE env var: dev (all tools), architect, security, pm — filters tools/prompts/resources per role.

MCP Sampling

Set NOMIK_SAMPLING=true — enables server→client LLM completion requests for AI-augmented analysis.
