Sylvan FAQs

Question 1

How does Sylvan reduce token consumption for AI agents?

Accepted Answer

Sylvan indexes your codebase into a structured database, allowing AI agents to request specific information (e.g., function signatures, dependencies) rather than reading entire files. This precision typically leads to token savings exceeding 80%.

Question 2

What is Sylvan and how does it help AI agents?

Accepted Answer

Sylvan is a code intelligence platform designed to empower AI agents. It enables them to efficiently search, analyze, and navigate codebases using precise MCP tools, drastically reducing token costs by providing only the necessary code snippets.

Question 3

Does Sylvan provide insights into token efficiency?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Sylvan features a web dashboard with live token efficiency tracking per session and all-time, along with comprehensive code quality reports. This provides valuable insights into agent performance and cost savings.

Question 4

What are Sylvan's key features for code analysis?

Accepted Answer

Sylvan offers 52 MCP tools for search, analysis, and refactoring. Key features include hybrid search (full-text + vector similarity), blast radius analysis, dependency graphs, code quality reports, and support for 34 programming languages via tree-sitter.

Question 5

Can Sylvan help with refactoring and impact analysis?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Sylvan includes powerful blast radius analysis, allowing you to visualize the potential impact of changes before executing any code refactors. This helps agents understand consequences and plan modifications effectively.
