Hyrax

Hyrax is an AI engineering tool that maps codebases and turns improvements into verified pull requests.

Hyrax is a codebase architect for AI-native engineering teams that maps services, dependencies, boundaries, and conventions across your repository. It uses six specialized agents to evaluate security, correctness, maintainability, performance, architecture, and operations. The platform turns high-use work into verified GitHub pull requests that run through an isolated worktree with your tests and build checks. An engineer reviews and approves every pull request before it merges into the repository. Hyrax connects via GitHub and integrates with webhooks and Linear for automated workflows. All AI inference runs in an AWS Bedrock account, and customer code is never used for model training.
