Frappe Inspector - Static analysis for Frappe and ERPNext projects
by•
Understand Frappe and ERPNext projects as one connected model. Navigate DocTypes, inspect relationships, catch migration risks and export findings across your editor, terminal, AI tools and CI—without uploading your source.

Hey Product Hunt 👋
I built Frappe Inspector after repeatedly running into the same limitation while working with Frappe and ERPNext projects.
Editors understand Python, JavaScript and JSON individually, but they usually do not understand the conventions connecting a DocType schema to its controller, client script, hooks, patches, fixtures, Custom Fields and related DocTypes.
Frappe Inspector builds that missing project model locally.
The free Community edition includes:
• Frappe bench and app discovery
• DocType and field exploration
• Related-file navigation
• Frappe-aware completion and definitions
• Conservative diagnostics
• DocType relationship graphs
• Local project scans and Markdown reports
Universal Pro adds deeper project-wide inference, Git-based migration comparisons, Custom Field and Property Setter analysis, JSON/SARIF reports, advanced MCP tools and GitHub Action features.
Project files are analyzed locally as text. Frappe Inspector does not execute project code, run Bench, connect to Frappe sites or upload source code during normal analysis.
It is available for VS Code, Cursor, JetBrains IDEs, CLI, MCP-compatible AI clients and GitHub Actions. Universal Pro covers VS Code, Cursor, CLI, MCP and GitHub Actions; JetBrains Marketplace licensing is separate.
I would particularly appreciate feedback about:
1. False positives and unsupported Frappe patterns
2. Performance on larger benches
3. Migration problems that should be detected earlier
4. Features that would genuinely save time in everyday Frappe development
Thanks for checking it out. Blunt and technical feedback is very welcome.

Would love to see a diff view that highlights which hooks or controllers actually changed between two commits, right now I have to dig through git history manually to trace why a custom script stopped firing after a refactor.
Such a promising launch—congrats on Frappe Inspector! Static analysis for Frappe and ERPNext projects is a clever idea. Wishing you a strong Product Hunt day! 🚀
