Sense runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. Last commit 15 Sep 2026.
Codebase understanding for AI coding agents — symbol graph, blast radius, semantic search.

We found things in this code
Code changes quietly between releases, and nobody reads the diff of a dependency. We do, on every release — watch Sense and you get told the day something new turns up.
