Getting Started

Deck is designed to be your cognitive partner in software engineering. Unlike velocity tools that focus on writing code, Deck focuses on your comprehension of the system.

Core Concepts

• Knowledge Components (KCs): Discretized units of code logic tracked via Bayesian Knowledge Tracing.
• User-State-Aware RAG: Retrieval augmented generation that accounts for your specific knowledge gap.
• GraphRAG: Structural context analysis that reveals downstream architectural implications.

Installation

Install the Deck VS Code extension from the marketplace or via the CLI:

npm install deck-ai

Once installed, Deck will begin indexing your codebase locally to build your Code Knowledge Graph. No proprietary code is sent to the cloud.
