Open a repo. Run one command. Know where to start. --- No install. No config. No API keys. --- --- Try it now No install required. Runs on any directory. Works best on repos with common manifest files. --- When should I use this? - Joining a new codebase — Skip the 15-minute ritual of reading README, exploring directories, and parsing package.json manually - Evaluating a dependency — Understand what a library actually uses before you adopt it - Returning to an old project — Re-orient yourself after months away - Before using Claude, Cursor, or Copilot — Run codeglance --for-ai to generate a structured context brief instead of dumping the whole codebase - Onboarding your team — codeglance --markdown docs/codebase-tour.md creates a living onboarding document --- What makes this different? Not a line counter. tokei and scc count lines of code. They don't tell you what framework you're looking at or how to run it. Not a source-code dumper. repomix and code2prompt pack source for LLM consumption. codeglance produces a context brief — just the orientation layer. Not an AI agent. No generation, no inference, no API calls. It reads manifest files and file structure, then reports what it finds. A repo orientation layer. It answers five questions in one command: what is this, how do I run it, where do I start, what tools does it use, and how do I hand it off to an LLM. --- Real-world examples All outputs below were captured by running codeglance ","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/mansoor-mamnoon","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/mansoor-mamnoon/codeglance/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
