Installation¶

Download pre-built binary (recommended)¶

Download the latest release from GitHub Releases:

# Linux (amd64)
curl -L https://github.com/ugiordan/architecture-analyzer/releases/latest/download/arch-analyzer-linux-amd64 -o arch-analyzer
chmod +x arch-analyzer

# macOS (Apple Silicon)
curl -L https://github.com/ugiordan/architecture-analyzer/releases/latest/download/arch-analyzer-darwin-arm64 -o arch-analyzer
chmod +x arch-analyzer

Build from source¶

Requires Go 1.25+ and git.

git clone https://github.com/ugiordan/architecture-analyzer.git
cd architecture-analyzer
go build -o arch-analyzer ./cmd/arch-analyzer/

Verify installation¶

./arch-analyzer version

Expected output:

arch-analyzer 0.1.0

Optional: Add to PATH¶

# Move to a directory in your PATH
sudo mv arch-analyzer /usr/local/bin/

# Or add the project directory to PATH
export PATH="$PATH:$(pwd)"

Tree-sitter dependency¶

The code property graph and security scanning features use tree-sitter for Go source parsing. Tree-sitter is included as a Go dependency and compiled automatically during go build. No additional installation needed.

GitHub Actions¶

For CI/CD usage, the analyzer builds in the workflow and runs against repos. See CI Integration for workflow examples.
