Commands

vg daemon

Local workspace daemon for multi-root graph sessions used by IDE extensions and agents: start, ensure, register workspaces, publish the map, and query impact without mutating repos.

Overview

vg daemon manages a local workspace daemon that keeps code-map sessions available for IDE extensions and coding agents. It tracks registered repository roots, can load a built map into an in-memory active graph, and answers structural queries and impact requests over a local socket.

It is safe for day-to-day use: start/stop/register/publish do not rewrite your source tree. Build the map first with vg build (or bare vg) before publish.

Most developers never need this directly — Vibgrate for VS Code and vg code attach when needed. Use the CLI when you want explicit control, multi-root federation, or scripting.

Usage

vg daemon status
vg daemon ensure
vg daemon start
vg daemon register
vg daemon list
vg daemon federation
vg daemon publish
vg daemon query "<text>"
vg daemon impact <symbol>
vg daemon graphs

Subcommand	Description
`status`	Whether the daemon is running and how many workspaces it tracks
`start`	Run in the foreground (Ctrl-C to stop)
`ensure`	Start in the background if not already running (idempotent; for hosts and agents)
`register [root]`	Register the current (or given) repository with a running daemon
`list`	List registered workspaces
`federation [root]`	Register a multi-root federation from `.vibgrate/federation.json` (or primary cwd)
`publish [root]`	Load the workspace code map into the daemon active graph
`query <query...>`	Lexical/structural query against the active graph
`impact <symbol>`	Blast radius for a symbol in the active graph
`graphs`	List multi-branch graph slots currently resident

Options

Flag	Description
`--socket <path>`	Override the local socket path
`--repository-id <id>`	On `query` / `impact` / `graphs`: target a workspace id from `vg daemon list`
`--git-ref <ref>`	On `publish` / `query` / `impact`: branch or SHA
`--limit <n>`	On `query`: max matches (default 12)
`--depth <n>`	On `impact`: max dependency depth (default 4)
`--json`	Machine-readable JSON on stdout

Typical host flow

vg build
vg daemon ensure
vg daemon publish
vg daemon query "payment service"
vg daemon impact PaymentService

vg build — produce the map publish loads
vg code — may attach to the daemon for sessions
vg lsp — language server for IDE UI
vg impact — same idea offline without the daemon

No live demo for this command

vg daemon is a long-running local process (and multi-step register/publish flow) for IDE and agent hosts. There is no single fixed replay; the commands above are the real surface.

1. Upgrade EOL runtime in node-turborepo

End-of-life runtimes no longer receive security patches and block ecosystem upgrades.

./.

>=18.0.0 → 24.0.0 (6 majors behind)

Impact: −10 drift points (runtime & EOL)

2. Fix security posture: no lockfile found

Without a lockfile, installs are non-deterministic. Run the install command to generate one and commit it.

Missing: package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, or yarn.lock

3. Upgrade Vite 5.4.21 → 8.2.2 in @repo/admin (+2 more)

3 major versions behind. Major framework drift increases breaking change risk and blocks access to security fixes and performance improvements.

./apps/admin

Vite: 5.4.21 → 8.2.2 (3 majors behind)

./apps/api

Vitest: 1.6.1 → 4.1.11 (3 majors behind)

./packages/utils

Vitest: 1.6.1 → 4.1.11 (3 majors behind)

Impact: −5–15 drift points

4. Reduce dependency rot in @repo/types (100% severely outdated)

1 of 1 dependencies are 2+ majors behind. Run `npm outdated` and prioritise packages with known CVEs or breaking API changes.

./packages/types

typescript: 5.9.3 → 7.0.2 (2 majors behind)

Impact: −5–10 drift points

5. Reduce dependency rot in @repo/database (75% severely outdated)

3 of 4 dependencies are 2+ majors behind. Run `npm outdated` and prioritise packages with known CVEs or breaking API changes.
