The UI section now describes the Lens that is on main: the six
workspaces, the Architecture views, Galaxy and the local chat. Three GIFs
and six stills of this repository at 4d9592b5 replace the old screenshot
and the large WebP recordings. Statements that no longer match the UI
are corrected or removed, and the test counts come from main.

CBM Lens Beta README captures
These are screenshots and browser recordings of the application, captured on 12 October 2026. The application data and text were not retouched. One addition is drawn on top of the recordings: a small mouse pointer and click ring, because a headless browser shows no pointer of its own.
Source and build
- Repository: DeusData/codebase-memory-mcp
- Branch:
main, after PR #2068 brought CBM Lens Beta in - Commit:
4d9592b5 - Build:
scripts/build.sh --with-ui - Browser: headless Chromium (Playwright) on macOS, English locale, viewport 1440 × 900, device scale factor 1
- Agents: standard build, experimental agent activity disabled
The v0.0.1 label in the application is the frontend package version. It is not the backend release version.
Data shown
The project codebase-memory-mcp is an export of the same public commit (git archive), indexed in full mode into an isolated local cache. No private repository was used. Because the export has no .git folder, Explore reports "Git unavailable" in its file impact line.
The index reported 75,037 nodes and 361,349 edges. These are properties of this source scope, not a benchmark. The interface keeps its coverage and display-limit notices.
Media
| File | What it shows |
|---|---|
| lens-overview.gif | Architecture overview of the repository: zoom and a small orbit, selecting src/pipeline, opening that area, selecting artifact.c and opening its source. |
| lens-architecture.png | Still image of the whole repository on the architecture map. |
| lens-galaxy.gif | Galaxy: searching cbm_pipeline_run, following its outgoing calls one layer further, the hierarchy view and the path to cbm_store_check_integrity. |
| lens-galaxy.png | Hierarchy view of cbm_pipeline_frozen_build: callers on the left, callees and used types on the right. |
| lens-explore.png | src/pipeline/fqn.c in the reader with its file impact line, the file tree and the code graph of the file. |
| lens-chat.gif | The chat with the local Qwen2.5 Coder 0.5B model: the explanation of cbm_pipeline_pass_doclinks and "Who calls cbm_pipeline_pass_doclinks?" answered from the graph. |
| lens-chat.png | Still image of the same explanation and listed answer. |
| lens-system-structure.png | Component groups and their dependencies in System structure, src selected. |
| lens-behavior.png | Possible direct calls of compileCards, with its declaration. |
The recordings were captured as browser video, then encoded as GIF at 960 pixels wide and 10 frames per second with a palette per recording. While a search is typed, the Galaxy briefly shows "No matching indexed nodes." until the index search answers; those frames (under one second) were cut. The stills are 1440 × 900, the chat still 1440 × 1200 so that the explanation and the answer fit together. Directional pulses represent indexed relationships, not observed execution.
Local chat check
The chat recording uses the actual browser model, downloaded through the application's own setup. The explanation lists the indexed facts and the declaration of the selected function; the one sentence after them was written by the model and is labelled as such. The caller answer is listed from the indexed graph without the model.
