    Use Cases & Benefits

    • Provides semantic version control with entity-level diffs, blame, and impact analysis across 28 languages using tree-sitter.
    • Enables precise code change tracking by identifying modifications at the function, class, or method level rather than line-based diffs.
    • Use for improving code review accuracy by highlighting exact entity changes in pull requests.
    • Use for AI coding agents to analyze code evolution and dependencies with structured semantic data.
    • Use for impact analysis to understand cross-file dependencies and potential breakages from code changes.

    Instead of lines changed, sem tells you what entities changed: functions, methods, classes.

    Or grab a binary from GitHub Releases.

    Works in any Git repo. No setup required. Also works outside Git for arbitrary file comparison.
