@cascade-code/core

Cascade's graph-analysis engine for building dependency graphs and deriving cycles, reachability, project intelligence, Git change impact, and architecture-governance findings.

Should I install it directly?

Usually no. Normal users should install @cascade-code/cli; install core when embedding Cascade analysis in a Node.js application.

npm install @cascade-code/core@next

Usage

import { analyze } from "@cascade-code/core";

const result = analyze(process.cwd());
console.log(result.nodes.length, result.edges.length, result.cycles);

Core exports the analyze orchestration API and graph/config types, JSON export helpers, plugin registry, path utilities, project detection, Git-impact analysis, governance evaluation, and cycle detection.

Environment and privacy

Requires Node.js 22.13 or newer. Analysis is local, but callers control where returned source-derived paths and reports are stored or transmitted. Apply the documented file, byte, edge, depth, timeout, and plugin trust boundaries.

Limitations

The graph represents statically observable source and metadata relationships. It does not execute builds, compilers, application code, dynamic loaders, or external services, and it is not a security scanner or type checker.
