# Omnigraph [![License: MIT](https://img.shields.io/badge/License-MIT-yellow.svg)](LICENSE) [![Rust](https://img.shields.io/badge/rust-stable-orange.svg)](rust-toolchain.toml) [![Crates.io](https://img.shields.io/crates/v/omnigraph-cli.svg)](https://crates.io/crates/omnigraph-cli) **Lakehouse native graph engine built for context assembly** Omnigraph acts as operational state & coordination layer for agents. Hundreds of agents can enrich the graph on parallel isolated branches and changes can be reviewed and merged safely. - Git-style versioning & branching - Multimodal retrieval (graph+vector/fts+filters) optimized for context assembly - Runs on the local filesystem or any S3-compatible object store (AWS S3, R2, MinIO, RustFS) - Native blob-as-data support (docs, images, videos, etc) - VPC, On-prem, hybrid deployment - [`Lance`](https://github.com/lance-format/lance) format as open storage layer | AS CODE | What it means | |---|---| | **Schema AS CODE** | Typed `.pg` schemas, planned, applied, enforced | | **Context AS CODE** | Linted queries & agentic nudges, versioned and reusable | | **Security AS CODE** | Cedar policies enforced server-side on every mutation | | **Dashboards AS CODE** | Declarative views & controls over the graph *(coming)* | ## Core Use Cases | Use case | What it's for |---|---| | **Company brain** | Org knowledge unified into one queryable graph | | **Context graph** | Decision traces and codified tribal knowledge | | **Agentic memory** | Durable, versioned memory for long-running agents | | **Dev graph** | Issues & dependency model for coding agents | | **R&D data layer** | Experiments & trials data written into branches | | **ML workflows** | Versioned, branchable graphs for training & eval | | **Karpathy's LLM wiki** | A living, agent-updatable knowledge base | ## Quick Install ```bash curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ModernRelay/omnigraph/main/scripts/install.sh | bash ``` This installs `omnigraph` and `omnigraph-server` into `~/.local/bin` from published release binaries. Or install with Homebrew: ```bash brew tap ModernRelay/tap brew install ModernRelay/tap/omnigraph ``` ## Quick start The fastest path is an **embedded, local file-backed graph** — no server, no object store, no Docker: ```bash # A schema and one row of data cat > schema.pg <<'PG' node Person { slug: String @key name: String title: String? } PG echo '{"type":"Person","data":{"slug":"alice","name":"Alice","title":"Engineer"}}' > people.jsonl # Create → load (--mode is required) → query omnigraph init --schema schema.pg ./graph.omni omnigraph load --data people.jsonl --mode overwrite --store ./graph.omni omnigraph query find_people --store ./graph.omni --params '{"t":"Engineer"}' \ -e 'query find_people($t: String) { match { $p: Person { title: $t } } return { $p.name } }' # Branch, write in isolation, merge — Git-style across the whole graph omnigraph branch create --from main review/new-hires --store ./graph.omni omnigraph branch merge review/new-hires --into main --store ./graph.omni ``` **Storage backends** — the same flow runs on any backend; only the graph address changes: | Backend | Use it for | Graph address | |---|---|---| | **Embedded** (local filesystem) | dev, demos, single machine — the default | `./graph.omni` | | **Object storage** (AWS S3, R2, GCS-S3) | shared, multi-host, durable | `s3://bucket/graph.omni` (+ the `AWS_*` env) | | **RustFS / MinIO** | rehearse the S3 path locally, no cloud account | `s3://…` against a local endpoint → [deployment guide](docs/user/deployment.md#testing-against-s3-locally) | `init` takes the address as its positional argument (`omnigraph init --schema schema.pg
`); `load`, `query`, and `branch` take it via `--store
`. For a **served, multi-graph deployment** (the cluster model), see [Common Commands](#common-commands) below. ## Set it up with an AI agent Omnigraph is built to be set up by coding agents. Paste this into Claude Code, Cursor, or any agent that can read a URL, install a package, and run a shell command — it installs the skill, reads the docs, and walks you through setup for your use case: ```text Help me set up Omnigraph (a lakehouse-native graph engine for agents). 1. Install the Omnigraph skill so you operate it correctly: npx skills add ModernRelay/omnigraph@omnigraph 2. Read the docs at https://github.com/ModernRelay/omnigraph — start with docs/user/quickstart.md, then docs/user/clusters/index.md. 3. Skim the starter graphs and seed data in the cookbooks: https://github.com/ModernRelay/omnigraph-cookbooks 4. Ask me what I want to build (company brain, agent memory, dev graph, research / R&D layer, …). Then install the CLI, stand up a first graph for that use case, load a little data, and run a query so I can see it working. ``` Works with any agent that can browse a URL, install a package, and run a shell. ## Agent skill & starter graphs This repo ships the [**`omnigraph` agent skill**](skills/omnigraph) — the operational playbook (cluster mode, the two config surfaces, schema evolution, query linting, data writes, branches, Cedar policy, and common gotchas) that teaches a coding agent to drive Omnigraph correctly. Install it with: ```bash npx skills add ModernRelay/omnigraph@omnigraph ``` For ready-to-run graphs with real seed data (company brain, VC operating system, pharma & industry intel), [`ModernRelay/omnigraph-cookbooks`](https://github.com/ModernRelay/omnigraph-cookbooks) is the fastest way to see Omnigraph shaped to a real domain. To rehearse the S3 path locally, see [deployment.md → Testing against S3 locally](docs/user/deployment.md#testing-against-s3-locally). ## Common Commands A deployment is a **cluster**. A `cluster.yaml` declares its graphs, schemas, stored queries, and policies; you converge it with `cluster apply` and serve it. The server is cluster-first — it boots only from a cluster and serves every graph under `/graphs/{id}/…`. Day-to-day work goes through that server: graphs are addressed with `--server ` (+ `--graph `), and `query`/`mutate` invoke a stored query from the catalog **by name**. ```bash # 1. Converge the declared cluster, then serve it (--as attributes the apply) omnigraph cluster apply --config ./company-brain --as you omnigraph-server --cluster ./company-brain --bind 0.0.0.0:8080 # or config-free from object storage — the bucket IS the deployment: # omnigraph-server --cluster s3://my-bucket/company-brain --bind 0.0.0.0:8080 # 2. Work against the served graph — stored queries invoked by name omnigraph query find_people --server prod --graph knowledge --params '{"q":"AI safety"}' omnigraph mutate add_person --server prod --graph knowledge --params '{"name":"Mina"}' omnigraph load --data ./data.jsonl --mode merge --server prod --graph knowledge # 3. Branch and merge, Git-style across the whole graph omnigraph branch create --from main review/2026-06 --server prod --graph knowledge omnigraph branch merge review/2026-06 --into main --server prod --graph knowledge ``` Set a default scope (or a `--profile`) in `~/.omnigraph/config.yaml` — operator identity, named servers/clusters, credentials — and the `--server`/`--graph` flags drop away (`omnigraph query find_people --params …`). **Local / ad-hoc.** For quick iteration on a standalone graph (no cluster, no server), address storage directly with `--store` (or a positional `file://` / `s3://` URI) and run ad-hoc `.gq` with `--query` (the positional then selects which query in the file): ```bash omnigraph init --schema ./schema.pg ./graph.omni omnigraph load --data ./data.jsonl --mode merge --store ./graph.omni omnigraph query --query ./queries.gq get_person --params '{"name":"Alice"}' --store ./graph.omni ``` See [docs/user/cli/index.md](docs/user/cli/index.md), the [CLI reference](docs/user/cli/reference.md), the [cluster guide](docs/user/clusters/index.md), and the [deployment guide](docs/user/deployment.md) for schema apply, snapshots, commits, profiles, and policy/queries tooling. ## Clients For programmatic access to a running `omnigraph-server`: - **TypeScript SDK + MCP server** — [`@modernrelay/omnigraph`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@modernrelay/omnigraph) and [`@modernrelay/omnigraph-mcp`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@modernrelay/omnigraph-mcp), versioned in lockstep with `omnigraph-server`.
