Context graph is a term people understand and reach for. But most things called a context graph are one-way extractions you can read and never check anything against. The version worth wanting is the one you can verify code against, and that single requirement is what separates an index from a verifiable code IR. Here is what verification demands, and why it is the only honest test of a context graph.
Specs and code drift apart the day after you write the PRD, because they are two separate documents that nobody keeps in sync. A verifiable context layer derives the spec a codebase actually implements and then continuously checks the code against it. Here is how spec-driven development works on a brownfield codebase, and why it needs a verifiable code IR that checks code against intent.
Verifiable is the one word competitors cannot claim. A code graph extracts a shadow of your code and can never tell you whether the code still does what it is supposed to. A verifiable intermediate representation is a derived contract that every change gets checked against. Here is what verifiable actually means, why GraphRAG and vector search can only retrieve, and what continuous verification unlocks.
