About this codebase
Rowboat indexes email, meetings, Slack, and assistant conversations into a living Obsidian-style backlinked knowledge graph by running a local, per-user assistant pipeline on your machine that syncs through a Space hosted on Harbor and publishes room-visible results back into the thread as structured artifacts. Inputs enter via your local Rowboat (e.g., message/meeting/transcript content plus your interaction intent), the pipeline normalizes and links that content into an evidence-backed graph, and the outputs are (1) a browsable, backlinked knowledge graph surfaced in the client UI and (2) Space thread receipts that reflect what your Rowboat posted in context.

Code health
This codebase scores 6.0 out of 10 for code health, which we rate fair. It also scores maintainability 6.7 and static performance 9.8 out of 10. The three are scored separately and never blended into one number. Risk is concentrated, as it usually is: 339 of 1,451 files are git hotspots, and they average 4.3 — which is where the fixes pay off most.

apps/x/packages/core/src/knowledge/sync_calendar.ts:447
syncCalendarWindow nests its control flow deeply, and part of it is duplicated, so splitting it also removes a copy; 3 files import it, changed 9 times in 90 days.

AI coworker with memory and collaboration This page is a map of the rowboatlabs/rowboat repository, written primarily in TypeScript, rebuilt from the source each time it is indexed. Repowise parses every symbol, computes a dependency graph, scores per-file code health from complexity, duplication, test coverage and churn, mines git history for hotspots and ownership, and lifts the architectural decisions into documentation you can read here or query through MCP.
The codebase has 1,451 files and 12,164 symbols in 1 module, led by TypeScript, JavaScript and Shell. Code health is 6.0 out of 10, rated fair.
