Day 1 of building Secrin

Day 1 of building Secrin: The Parser Sets SailToday, we built something big, a graph-based parser for Python and JavaScript. It’s the kind of thing that turns plain code into a map of meaning. Now, Secrin can look at a repo and understand how the code connects, not just what files exist.

The start wasn’t smooth. Each language had its own storms Python with its hidden indents and JavaScript with its chaotic syntax waves. For hours, it felt like fighting sea monsters that spoke two different dialects. But in the end, the crew made it through.

Now, the parser doesn’t just read files; it builds relationships between functions, classes, and modules. Each node is like an island, and each link a sea route together, they form the start of Secrin’s knowledge graph.

Tomorrow, we’ll sail toward visualization bringing this graph to life so we can see how knowledge connects. The seas ahead look promising.

The Grand Line of Open Source continues.
