Pairings recipe: agentmemory + codegraph + Understand Anything + Graphify

[rohitg00]

Just merged #641 — a new recipe doc at docs/recipes/pairings.md covering how agentmemory stacks with three open-source projects shipping the rest of the AI coding agent context layer.

The four planes

Plane	Project	What it ships
Session history (observations, decisions, preferences)	agentmemory	MCP + REST + hooks; persistent memory across sessions
Code structure at runtime	codegraph (17.6K stars)	MCP server with 8 tools, SQLite-backed; ~70% fewer tool calls on architecture questions per their published benchmark
Code structure + business domain + dashboard	Understand Anything (25.3K stars)	Claude Code plugin (also on 13+ agents), multi-agent build pipeline, interactive web dashboard, guided tours, framework-aware routes across 14 frameworks
Code + docs + PDFs + images + videos	Graphify (53K stars, YC S26)	Skill (/graphify .) producing graph.html + GRAPH_REPORT.md + graph.json; runs on 15+ agents

Question routing the recipe lays out

• What does shipctl helm install call? → codegraph
• How does the payment flow work in this repo? → Understand Anything dashboard
• What does this PDF spec say about the rate limit? → Graphify
• Why did we pick X over Y three sessions ago? → agentmemory
• Fix the auth bug from the post-mortem → agentmemory pulls the post-mortem, codegraph pins the current file

Recipe also has a unified ~/.claude.json MCP snippet wiring codegraph + agentmemory in one config, and a suggested install order for a brand-new project.

Build a cross-project benchmark adapter

The eval scaffold at eval/runner/adapters/ accepts new adapters against the shared coding-agent-life-v1 corpus (15 sessions, 15 hand-graded queries) and LongMemEval _s. A codegraph / understand-anything / graphify adapter would let the ecosystem publish a side-by-side scorecard showing which project owns which question class.

If you build one, open a PR with the adapter file under eval/runner/adapters/ and a scorecard under docs/benchmarks/. Contract + sandbox script + reproduce instructions live in eval/README.md.

Why this stack

Four different planes, four different update models, four different consumers (human / agent / both). Stacking them gives the agent a richer picture in fewer tool calls and gives the human a visual map of what their codebase looks like. All four are local-first.
