Replace the single ASCII stack in docs/architecture.md with a hierarchy of Mermaid diagrams that show the system from external context down to the component level. Add an on-disk layout diagram in docs/storage.md and two sequence diagrams (read query, mutation) in docs/execution.md so readers can navigate from "what is OmniGraph" to "how does a query run" without opening source. Static structure (docs/architecture.md): - System context — agents/clients, embedding providers, Cedar, object store. - Layer view — eight-layer stack with L1 (Lance) / L2 (OmniGraph) styling via classDef, replacing the pre-existing ASCII art. - Component zoom-ins — compiler, engine, storage trait, index lifecycle, server/CLI. Each zoom-in cites file:line entry points. Aspirational shapes (storage trait, full reconciler) are visually marked and pointed at the relevant invariants.md section so readers see the intended seam without thinking it's already implemented. On-disk layout (docs/storage.md): - Tree from repo URI through __manifest, nodes/, edges/, _graph_commits.lance, _graph_runs.lance, _refs/branches/ down into Lance's per-dataset internals (_versions/, data/, _indices/, _refs/, _transactions/). - Annotated with the actual filenames so readers can `ls` the same paths. - Slots in below the existing __manifest CAS / OCC / migration prose; does not move or rewrite that content. Runtime flows (docs/execution.md): - Read flow sequence: client → Omnigraph::query → typecheck → lower → execute_query → table_store → Lance scanner → RecordBatch stream. - Mutation flow sequence: Omnigraph::mutate → resolve literals → Lance write op (Append / merge_insert) → ManifestRepo::commit → __manifest upsert. - Both diagrams are followed by a "Code paths" block with verified file:line citations so readers can navigate from diagram element to source in one step. Conventions established (this is the first Mermaid in the repo): - L1 = orange (#fef3e8), L2 = blue (#e8f4fd), aspirational = dashed. - Diagram size cap ~9 elements; more detail goes in a sub-diagram. - Diagrams paired with prose; code-path citations follow each diagram. - Consistent vocabulary across diagrams: frontend / compiler / engine / storage trait / Lance / object store. No accidental synonyms. Subsequent PRs will add flow diagrams for schema apply, branch + merge, run isolation, index reconcile, and the embedding pipeline in the same conventions. |

Omnigraph
Lakehouse-native graph engine with git-style workflows.
Branch, commit, and merge typed graph data like source code. Multi-modal, self-hosted, open source.
Use Cases
- On-prem & hybrid context graphs
- Backbone for multi-agent research
- Incident response graphs
- Compliance & audit graphs
- Enterprise knowledge systems
Capabilities
- Typed schema, typed queries, and typed mutations
- Schema-as-code, query validation and linting
- Git-style graph workflows: branches, commits, merges, and transactional runs
- Local, on-prem & cloud S3-native storage with snapshot-pinned reads
- Graph traversal + text, fuzzy, BM25, vector, and RRF search in one runtime
- Policy-as-code for server-side access control
- Single CLI for multiple deployments
Quick Install
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:
brew tap ModernRelay/tap
brew install ModernRelay/tap/omnigraph
For starter graphs and agent skills to bootstrap and operate Omnigraph, see ModernRelay/omnigraph-starters.
One-Command Local RustFS Bootstrap
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ModernRelay/omnigraph/main/scripts/local-rustfs-bootstrap.sh | bash
That bootstrap:
- starts RustFS on
127.0.0.1:9000 - creates a bucket and S3-backed repo
- loads the checked-in context fixture
- launches
omnigraph-serveron127.0.0.1:8080
Docker must be installed and running first.
The RustFS bootstrap prefers the rolling edge binaries and only falls back to
source builds when release assets are unavailable.
If a previous run left objects under the same repo prefix but did not finish
initializing the repo, rerun with RESET_REPO=1 or set PREFIX to a new
value.
Common Commands
The same URI works for local paths, s3://…, or http://host:port.
omnigraph init --schema ./schema.pg ./repo.omni
omnigraph load --data ./data.jsonl ./repo.omni
omnigraph read --query ./queries.gq --name get_person --params '{"name":"Alice"}' ./repo.omni
omnigraph change --query ./queries.gq --name insert_person --params '{"name":"Mina"}' ./repo.omni
omnigraph branch create --from main feature-x ./repo.omni
omnigraph branch merge feature-x --into main ./repo.omni
See docs/cli.md for schema apply, snapshots, ingest, runs, and policy commands.

Build And Test
cargo build --workspace
cargo check --workspace
cargo test --workspace
Notes:
- Rust stable toolchain, edition 2024
- CI runs
cargo test --workspace --locked - Full CI and some local test flows require
protobuf-compiler - S3 integration tests expect an S3-compatible endpoint such as RustFS
