High signal-to-noise for Cognee
Codebases emit millions of granular AST nodes — variables, syntax tokens, imports. Dumping source into Cognee dilutes its vector-graph memory. Kept apart, Cognee only indexes what is being built and why.
Deterministic precision for Graphify
Vector search is probabilistic; it guesses by similarity. Code is deterministic. Tree-sitter static analysis maps exact imports, classes and dependencies, so SecOps and Editor get non-hallucinated traces.
Zero-overlap partitioning
Both graphs live in the same local Memgraph instance, separated by graph namespace — no cross-contamination, one database to run and back up.
