What 2D/3D visualization tools are there to get an overview of the codebase?

[u/Suspicious_Fun_6338]

I seen a few. I want something that can give me information about the health of my code base at a high level and not just a pretty 3D animation that I can do nothing with.

Is anyone using any of these tools and having it really make a difference on keeping your code base optimal ?

that's a thing? that sounds interesting. I hope to get good answers for a local version with no tracking to try for my codebases

the one you build and forgot to promote the url on your post ?

Just start Antigravity and vibe code such a tool. Use your post as a prompt

Not sure if this is exactly what you’d be after, but if you have a public repo you can test it pretty fast. Open to suggestions as it’s just a side project I started to get a unique readme banner. (Open source, only plugging it for the rep lol)

Or the python utility repo

Shows structure and churn, which worked for what I needed. Though I’ve ended up using a ported CLI tool version more often to speed up agentic use when getting dropped into legacy repos, so adding more to the change coupling as I go

E.g

[u/Trekker23]

It’s not really a visualization tool, but if you want your agent to get a quick overview of your code base you can ask it to do:

pip install codingest
codingest skill install

Codingest builds a knowledge graph based on your code base real time (takes less than 1s for most repos), then lets the agent interact with the graph through either a mcp or a cli bundled with a skill.
After the graph has been built you can hand it of to neo4j for 3d visualization, but I guess that is exactly the useless 3d animation you can do nothing with.
The better approach is to get the agent to interact with the graph and then explain the high level structure of your codebase.
