Giving your coding agent a working memory, not just a code graph

github.com · 1 day on the radar

Where is the demand coming from?
Real market pull
Demand from people with no connection to the founder. This is the read that decides whether the traction would transfer to you.
Roughly what does it earn?
Not disclosedNo basis to estimate
We do not publish a figure until we have something to base it on. When we do, the method that produced it is shown alongside the range.
Could you build it?
Yes, in about 6 weeks
Nothing patented, no network effect, and no proprietary data set standing in the way.

What it is

REQL is a local code indexing engine that builds a property graph of multi-language repositories to provide AI coding agents with deterministic, bounded context retrieval without mandatory LLM calls. It targets the problem of agents losing state and wasting tokens on repository discovery by maintaining working memory and incremental compilation.

The one thing to knowThis is a deep infrastructure play (graph databases, parsing, code analysis) that solves a real but narrow pain point (agent context efficiency), meaning fast-follower value is low unless distribution or positioning changes significantly.
