Score: 6.5/10 (Innovation: 5, Technical: 7, Documentation: 8, Utility: 6)

Graf is a Rust rewrite of Graphify, a local code-graph tool for AI agents, using SQLite for persistent indexing and querying. It claims dramatic speedups (1000x search, 89x updates) by avoiding Python/NetworkX overhead and reloading the graph per query. It is a solid engineering reimplementation with strong benchmarks, though conceptually derivative.

Target audience: backend devs, AI agent developers, devops
