Troubleshooting the Code-Map Build

Fix problems building or querying the Vibgrate code map. Learn how to check freshness, rebuild incrementally, precompute the semantic index, and confirm queries work offline.

Vibgrate Docs

Vibgrate Help

This article helps when building or querying the Vibgrate code map does not behave as expected. It is for developers using Vibgrate Graph commands such as vg show, vg ask, and vg impact.

Build the code map first

The graph queries depend on a built code map. Build or update it incrementally:

vg build

If a query like vg ask or vg impact returns nothing useful, the most common cause is that the map has not been built yet, or is stale.

Check freshness

Check how fresh the map is and how it compares to your working tree:

vg status

This reports node and edge counts and staleness. If it shows the map is stale, rebuild with vg build.

Slow or stalling queries

The first vg ask downloads a local model once into a shared cache. Precompute the semantic index so queries are instant and fully offline afterward:

vg embed

After the model is cached, vg ask and vg serve work without the network.

Keeping the map current for a team

If teammates see stale results, make the map committable and auto-updating so it stays in sync with commits:

vg share

This installs a pre-commit hook, a deterministic merge driver, and the right .gitignore entries.

Serving the map to an AI assistant

If the goal is to feed the map to an AI assistant, run Vibgrate AI Context locally:

vg serve

Use vg install to wire it into supported assistants such as Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code, Codex, and Gemini.

│ Top Priority Actions │

╰──────────────────────────────────────────╯

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.

./packages/database

@prisma/client: 5.22.0 → 7.10.0 (2 majors behind)

prisma: 5.22.0 → 7.10.0 (2 majors behind)

typescript: 5.9.3 → 7.0.2 (2 majors behind)

Impact: −5–10 drift points
