Introduction
Mapnostics is an AI-powered codebase intelligence platform that builds a live map of your entire repository — files, functions, dependencies, and how recently each file changed — and keeps it updated every day.
Why Mapnostics exists
Engineering teams accumulate invisible debt. Files no one touches. Functions no one calls. Code whose original author left two years ago. When you need to move fast — refactor a service, onboard a new hire, safely delete old endpoints — you're flying blind.
- Most teams lack an authoritative, up-to-date map of their codebase structure.
- Manual reviews take days and miss cross-file dependencies buried in imports.
- Refactors break things in unexpected places — discovered in production.
- New engineers take 3–6 months to ship confidently without senior mentorship.
TIP
The average production incident costs $5,000–$50,000. Mapnostics Pro is $49/month.
What it helps you do
- Find every unused export, dead function, and zombie code cluster — flagged with evidence-backed confidence scores.
- Reconstruct the "why" behind every file using AI-powered intent recovery.
- Simulate the blast radius of any change before you write a single line.
- Generate onboarding guides so new engineers ship confidently in days.
- See which engineers hold the most undocumented knowledge, and what breaks if they leave.
- Share a full health report with one link — no login required for viewers.
- Detect hardcoded secrets and API keys before they reach production.
Typical workflow
Connect your GitHub repo → Mapnostics indexes every file in under 2 minutes → Explore every intelligence module → Share a report or enable Autopilot for daily scans.
Intelligence modules
01
Repository Dashboard
The headline health score and the first stop on every repository.
02
Dead Code Detection
Flag unused exports, functions, and files with confidence scores.
03
Zombie Code
Find whole clusters of functions no entry point ever reaches.
04
Intent Recovery
AI rebuilds the purpose and architecture intent of every file.
05
Impact Simulator
Ask "what breaks if I change X?" — get a blast radius instantly.
06
Onboarding Map
Auto-generate step-by-step reading guides for new engineers.
07
Key Person Risk
See who holds the knowledge, and what a departure would orphan.
08
Shareable Reports
One link. Full health report. No login required for viewers.
09
Secrets Detection
Scan for hardcoded keys, tokens, and passwords.
10
Code Map
Navigate your repo as a live dependency graph, four ways.
