Elevator Pitch

FalkorBrain turns AI agents from isolated vector searchers into relationship-aware systems. It uses FalkorDB as a central Knowledge Graph context layer that connects team members, architectural decisions (ADRs), code dependencies, and multi-tier memories (episodic, semantic, procedural). This enables multi-hop reasoning, transparent explainability traces, and MCP tool orchestration.

The Problem

Standard AI agents lack relational context:

They treat code and memories as flat text chunks, missing multi-hop dependencies.
They cannot explain the chain of reasoning behind a decision.
They lose organizational context: who authored a decision, why a rule exists, and which modules depend on it.
How FalkorDB Shapes the Agent
Multi-Hop Traversal: The agent answers questions with parameterized Cypher queries that trace paths such as (User)-[:AUTHORED]->(Decision)-[:AFFECTS]->(SourceFile)-[:IMPORTS]->(DependentFile).
Explainability Trace: Every answer cites the exact path traversed in FalkorDB, so users can see how it was derived.
Model Context Protocol (MCP) Integration: Exposes graph querying, impact tracing, and memory retrieval tools to any MCP-compatible agent or IDE.
Dynamic Codebase Ingestion: Scans JavaScript and TypeScript with the Babel AST parser and maps files, imports, and symbols as live nodes and edges in FalkorDB.
Persistent Memory Across Sessions: Stores episodic meeting notes, semantic concepts, and procedural review rules as graph nodes.
Tech Stack
Graph Database and Context Engine: FalkorDB (Cypher, node and range indexing, graph algorithms)
Backend and Orchestration: Node.js, Express, @babel/parser, @babel/traverse, falkordb SDK
Frontend Dashboard: React, Vite, vanilla CSS design system
Protocols and Standards: Model Context Protocol (MCP), REST API
Track Requirement Matrix
Track 01: Agents That Act on Connected Data
Multi-Hop Reasoning: The agent traces (Decision)-[:AFFECTS]->(File)-[:IMPORTS]->(Importer) and (File)-[:DEFINES]->(Symbol) to map multi-hop blast radius.
Graph Queries as Agent Tools: Parameterized Cypher tools (executeCypher, getDecisionImpactTrace, explainConnectionPath) run directly against FalkorDB.
Tool Selection via MCP: MCP endpoints expose falkordb_cypher_query, falkordb_trace_decision_impact, falkordb_explain_connection, and falkordb_get_agent_memory.
Actions Based on Graph Topology: When a user asks about modifying token.util.js, the agent warns that ADR-001 enforces userCode immutability on that module.
Explainable Results: The UI shows breadcrumb chip paths such as [Krish] -[:AUTHORED]-> [ADR-001] -[:AFFECTS]-> [token.util.js], showing the exact path traversed.
Track 02: Agent Memory and Coordination
Episodic, Semantic, and Procedural Memory:
Episodic: Retains meeting takeaways (e.g., Session #101 token revocation rules).
Semantic: Preserves durable best practices (e.g., the JWT numerical ID principle).
Procedural: Enforces code review rules (e.g., test regression guidelines).
Shared State and Multi-Agent Handoffs: Models collaboration with (:Agent)-[:HANDED_OFF_TO {task, status, handoffTime}]->(:Agent) and persists coordination state in FalkorDB.
Tenant and User Scoping: Memories and sessions carry tenantId and userId attributes for strict tenancy isolation.
Track 03: Company Brain
Docs, Tickets, and Chats in One Graph: Connects Jira tickets (SEC-402), engineering specs (DOC-88), chat sessions (Session #101), and ADRs in a single graph.
Ownership and Expertise: Explicit (:User)-[:OWNS]->(:SourceFile) and (:User)-[:EXPERT_IN]->(:Concept) relationships answer who owns what and who knows what.
Tracing Decisions to Source: Cypher queries trace any decision back to its originating ticket (-[:RESOLVES_TICKET]->) and specification (-[:CITES_DOCUMENT]->).
Answers with Clear Sources: Responses cite the exact authors, reviewers, ticket IDs, and URLs from the graph.
