Parses source code in 66 languages using tree-sitter grammar bindings (vendored C components) to extract structural entities: function/method definitions, class hierarchies, variable declarations, imports, and type annotations. The parsing engine operates as the first pass in a 7-pass indexing pipeline, converting raw source text into an intermediate AST representation that feeds downstream semantic analysis. Uses tree-sitter's incremental parsing to avoid re-parsing unchanged file regions during incremental reindexing.
Unique: Uses vendored tree-sitter C bindings compiled into a single static binary, enabling 66-language support without external dependencies or grammar downloads. Integrates incremental parsing to avoid re-parsing unchanged regions during content-hash-based reindexing, achieving ~4× faster incremental updates than full-scan approaches.
vs alternatives: Supports 66 languages in a single binary with zero external dependencies, whereas LSP-based approaches require per-language server installations and Regex-based tools are limited to 5-10 languages with poor structural accuracy.
Builds and maintains a queryable knowledge graph stored in SQLite WAL mode at ~/.cache/codebase-memory-mcp/codebase-memory.db. The graph schema models code entities (functions, classes, modules) as nodes and relationships (calls, inheritance, imports, type references) as edges. Exposes a Cypher query engine (src/store/store.c) for graph traversal, enabling sub-millisecond queries for structural patterns like 'find all callers of function X' or 'trace inheritance chain for class Y'. Supports incremental updates via content-hash-based change detection — only modified files trigger re-parsing and graph updates.
Unique: Implements a Cypher query engine in C within a single static binary, achieving sub-millisecond query latency on graphs with thousands of nodes. Uses content-hash-based incremental indexing to detect file changes and update only affected graph regions, enabling ~4× faster re-indexing than full-scan approaches. Stores graph in SQLite WAL mode for ACID compliance and concurrent read access.
vs alternatives: Delivers sub-millisecond Cypher queries on local graphs without network latency, whereas cloud-based code intelligence services (GitHub Copilot, Tabnine) incur 100-500ms round-trip latency and require sending code to external servers.
Performs community detection on the code graph to identify clusters of related entities (functions, classes, modules) that form logical architectural components. The indexing pipeline (Pass 6) uses graph clustering algorithms to group entities based on call frequency, shared dependencies, and module boundaries. Results are stored in the graph as 'BELONGS_TO_COMMUNITY' relationships, queryable via tools like 'find_communities' and 'find_community_members'. Useful for understanding codebase architecture, identifying tightly coupled components, and visualizing system structure.
Unique: Uses graph clustering algorithms on the call graph to automatically identify architectural components without manual configuration or domain knowledge. Results are stored in the graph for efficient querying and visualization.
vs alternatives: Automatic community detection requires no manual configuration or domain knowledge, whereas manual architecture documentation is often outdated. Faster and more objective than manual architectural analysis.
Identifies test functions and links them to the code they test by analyzing test file naming conventions, test decorators, and assertion patterns. The indexing pipeline (Pass 7) detects test functions (e.g., functions starting with 'test_', methods in classes ending with 'Test', functions decorated with @test or @pytest.mark) and attempts to link them to the functions they test based on naming patterns and call graph analysis. Results are stored in the graph as 'TESTS' relationships, queryable via tools like 'find_tests_for_function' and 'find_tested_functions'.
Unique: Automatically links test functions to code under test using naming patterns and call graph analysis, without requiring explicit test annotations or coverage instrumentation. Works across multiple testing frameworks (pytest, unittest, Jest, Go testing, etc.) in a single indexing pass.
vs alternatives: Automatic test linking requires no instrumentation or coverage tools, whereas coverage tools (pytest-cov, Istanbul) require test execution and only measure line coverage. Faster than manual test discovery and works for untested code.
Provides direct access to source code files and code snippets via tools like 'get_file_content' and 'get_code_snippet'. Supports retrieving entire files or specific line ranges, with optional syntax highlighting and context expansion. Useful for AI agents that need to read actual code after identifying relevant functions via graph queries. Integrates with graph queries to provide seamless navigation from structural queries (find_callers) to actual code inspection.
Unique: Provides direct file access integrated with graph queries, enabling seamless navigation from structural queries (find_callers) to actual code inspection. Supports line-range retrieval and context expansion for efficient code reading.
vs alternatives: Integrated file access eliminates separate file reading steps and enables efficient context expansion, whereas separate file reading tools require manual path construction and context management.
Detects references to configuration files, environment variables, and external dependencies by analyzing code patterns, imports, and config file references. The indexing pipeline (Pass 5) identifies config file paths (e.g., 'config.yaml', 'settings.json'), environment variable references (e.g., 'os.getenv("DATABASE_URL")'), and external dependencies (e.g., 'import requests', 'require("express")') and links them to the code that references them. Results are stored in the graph as 'REFERENCES_CONFIG', 'USES_ENV_VAR', and 'DEPENDS_ON' relationships.
Unique: Automatically detects configuration file, environment variable, and dependency references using pattern matching and AST analysis, linking them to code locations in the graph. Works across multiple languages and frameworks without requiring explicit annotations.
vs alternatives: Automatic detection of config and dependency references requires no manual configuration, whereas dependency analysis tools (npm audit, pip-audit) only check for known vulnerabilities and don't link to code locations. Faster than manual dependency tracking.
Indexes codebases containing multiple programming languages (Python, Go, TypeScript, Rust, Java, C++, C#, Kotlin, Lua, Haskell, OCaml, Swift, Dart, MATLAB, Lean 4, Wolfram, and 48 more) in a single unified indexing pass. Each language is parsed using language-specific tree-sitter grammars, and semantic analysis (call resolution, type inference, HTTP route detection) is adapted to each language's semantics. Results are stored in a unified graph that enables cross-language queries (e.g., 'find all Python functions that call Go functions').
Unique: Indexes 66 languages in a single unified graph with language-specific semantic analysis, enabling cross-language queries without separate per-language tools. Each language's semantics (Python type hints, Go explicit types, TypeScript annotations) are respected in a unified indexing pipeline.
vs alternatives: Single unified indexing pass for 66 languages eliminates the need for per-language tool setup, whereas LSP-based approaches require separate server configuration for each language. Cross-language queries are impossible with language-specific tools.
Executes a multi-stage indexing pipeline (src/pipeline/pipeline.c) that progressively enriches the graph: Pass 1 extracts structure (definitions, imports), Pass 2 resolves calls to their definitions, Pass 3 infers types and inheritance, Pass 4 detects HTTP links and routes, Pass 5 identifies config file references, Pass 6 performs community detection (clustering related entities), Pass 7 indexes test coverage. Each pass operates on the graph built by previous passes, enabling sophisticated analyses like 'find all functions that handle HTTP POST requests' or 'identify dead code by tracing reachability from entry points'. Type inference uses language-specific heuristics (e.g., Python type hints, Go explicit types, TypeScript annotations) to build a best-effort type map.
Unique: Implements a 7-pass pipeline that progressively enriches the graph with semantic information (calls, types, HTTP routes, communities, tests) in a single indexing run. Each pass operates on the graph state from previous passes, enabling sophisticated cross-cutting analyses without re-parsing. Uses language-specific heuristics for call resolution and type inference, adapting to each language's semantics (Python type hints, Go explicit types, TypeScript annotations).
vs alternatives: Provides call resolution and type inference in a single indexing pass without requiring LSP servers or language-specific analysis tools, whereas LSP-based approaches require per-language server setup and multiple round-trips for semantic information.

Automatically inspects tabular data sources (Google Sheets, Airtable, Excel, CSV, SQL databases) to extract column names, infer field types (text, number, date, checkbox, etc.), and create bidirectional data bindings between UI components and source columns. Uses declarative component-to-column mappings that persist schema changes in real-time, enabling components to automatically reflect upstream data structure modifications without manual rebinding.
Unique: Glide's approach combines automatic schema introspection with declarative component binding, eliminating manual field mapping that competitors like Airtable require. The bidirectional sync model means changes to source column structure automatically propagate to UI components without developer intervention, reducing maintenance overhead for non-technical users.
vs alternatives: Faster to initial app than Airtable (which requires manual field configuration) and more flexible than rigid form builders because it adapts to evolving data structures automatically.
Provides 40+ pre-built, data-aware UI components (forms, tables, calendars, charts, buttons, text inputs, dropdowns, file uploads, maps, etc.) that automatically render responsively across mobile and desktop viewports. Components use a declarative binding syntax to connect to spreadsheet columns, with built-in support for computed fields, conditional visibility, and user-specific data filtering. Layout engine uses CSS Grid/Flexbox under the hood to adapt component sizing and positioning based on screen size without requiring manual breakpoint configuration.
Unique: Glide's component library is tightly integrated with data binding — components are not generic UI elements but data-aware objects that automatically sync with spreadsheet columns. This eliminates the disconnect between UI and data that exists in traditional form builders, where developers must manually wire component values to data sources.
vs alternatives: Faster to build than Bubble (which requires manual component-to-data wiring) and more mobile-optimized than Airtable's grid-centric interface, which prioritizes desktop spreadsheet metaphors over mobile-first design.
Glide scores higher at 70/100 vs codebase-memory-mcp at 37/100. codebase-memory-mcp leads on ecosystem, while Glide is stronger on adoption and quality.

Enables multiple team members to edit apps simultaneously with role-based access control. Supports predefined roles (Owner, Editor, Viewer) with different permission levels: Owners can manage team members and publish apps, Editors can modify app design and data, Viewers can only view published apps. Team member limits vary by plan (2 free, 10 business, custom enterprise). Real-time collaboration on app design is not mentioned, suggesting changes may not be synchronized in real-time between editors.
Unique: Glide's team collaboration is built into the platform, meaning team members don't need separate accounts or complex permission configuration — they're invited via email and assigned roles directly in the app. This is more seamless than tools requiring external identity management.
vs alternatives: More integrated than Airtable (which requires separate workspace management) and simpler than GitHub-based collaboration (which requires version control knowledge), though less sophisticated than enterprise platforms with audit logging and approval workflows.
Provides pre-built app templates for common use cases (inventory management, CRM, project management, expense tracking, etc.) that users can clone and customize. Templates include sample data, pre-configured components, and example workflows, reducing time-to-first-app from hours to minutes. Templates are fully editable, allowing users to modify data sources, components, and workflows to match their specific needs. Template library is curated by Glide and updated regularly with new templates.
Unique: Glide's templates are fully functional apps with sample data and workflows, not just empty scaffolds. This allows users to immediately see how components work together and understand app structure before customizing, reducing the learning curve significantly.
vs alternatives: More complete than Airtable's templates (which are mostly empty bases) and more accessible than building from scratch, though less flexible than code-based frameworks where templates can be parameterized and generated programmatically.
Allows workflows to be triggered on a schedule (daily, weekly, monthly, or custom intervals) without manual intervention. Scheduled workflows execute at specified times and can perform batch operations (process pending records, send daily reports, sync data, etc.). Execution time is in UTC, and the exact scheduling mechanism (cron, quartz, custom) is undocumented. Failed scheduled tasks may or may not retry automatically (retry logic undocumented).
Unique: Glide's scheduled workflows are integrated with the workflow engine, meaning scheduled tasks can execute the same complex logic as event-triggered workflows (conditional logic, multi-step actions, API calls). This is more powerful than simple scheduled email tools because scheduled tasks can perform data transformations and cross-system synchronization.
vs alternatives: More integrated than Zapier's schedule trigger (which is limited to simple actions) and more accessible than cron jobs (which require server access and scripting knowledge), though less transparent about execution guarantees and failure handling than enterprise job schedulers.
Offers Glide Tables, a proprietary managed database alternative to external spreadsheets or databases, with automatic scaling and optimization for Glide apps. Glide Tables are stored in Glide's infrastructure and optimized for the data binding and query patterns used by Glide apps. Scaling limits are plan-dependent (25k-100k rows), with separate 'Big Tables' tier for larger datasets (exact scaling limits undocumented). Automatic backups and disaster recovery are mentioned but details are undocumented.
Unique: Glide Tables are optimized specifically for Glide's data binding and query patterns, meaning they're tightly integrated with the app builder and don't require separate database administration. This is more seamless than connecting external databases (which require schema design and optimization knowledge) but less flexible because data is locked into Glide's proprietary format.
vs alternatives: More managed than self-hosted databases (no administration required) and more integrated than external databases (no separate configuration), though less portable than standard databases because data cannot be easily exported or migrated.
Provides basic chart components (bar, line, pie, area charts) that visualize data from connected sources. Charts are configured visually by selecting data columns for axes, values, and grouping. Charts are responsive and adapt to mobile/tablet/desktop. Real-time updates are supported; charts refresh when underlying data changes. No custom chart types or advanced visualization options (3D, animations, etc.) are available.
Unique: Provides basic chart components with automatic real-time updates and responsive design, suitable for simple dashboards — most visual builders (Bubble, FlutterFlow) require chart plugins or custom code
vs alternatives: More integrated than Airtable's chart view because real-time updates are automatic; weaker than BI tools (Tableau, Looker) because no drill-down, filtering, or advanced visualization options
Allows users to query data using natural language (e.g., 'Show me all orders from last month with revenue > $5k') which is converted to structured database queries without SQL knowledge. Also includes AI-powered data extraction from unstructured text (emails, documents, images) to populate spreadsheet columns. Implementation details (LLM model, context window, fine-tuning approach) are undocumented, but the feature appears to use prompt-based query generation with fallback to manual query building if AI fails.
Unique: Glide's natural language query feature bridges the gap between spreadsheet users (who think in English) and database queries (which require SQL). Rather than teaching users SQL, it translates natural language to structured queries, lowering the barrier to data exploration. The data extraction capability extends this to unstructured sources, automating data entry from emails and documents.
vs alternatives: More accessible than Airtable's formula language or traditional SQL, and more integrated than bolt-on AI query tools because it's built directly into the data layer rather than as a separate search interface.
