Rust Call Graph

Visualize function call relationships using LSP call hierarchy.

Usage

/rust-call-graph <function_name> [--depth N] [--direction in|out|both]

Options:

• --depth N: How many levels to traverse (default: 3)
• --direction: in (callers), out (callees), both

Examples:

• /rust-call-graph process_request - Show both callers and callees
• /rust-call-graph handle_error --direction in - Show only callers
• /rust-call-graph main --direction out --depth 5 - Deep callee analysis

LSP Operations

1. Prepare Call Hierarchy

Get the call hierarchy item for a function.

LSP(
  operation: "prepareCallHierarchy",
  filePath: "src/handler.rs",
  line: 45,
  character: 8
)

2. Incoming Calls (Who calls this?)

LSP(
  operation: "incomingCalls",
  filePath: "src/handler.rs",
  line: 45,
  character: 8
)

3. Outgoing Calls (What does this call?)

LSP(
  operation: "outgoingCalls",
  filePath: "src/handler.rs",
  line: 45,
  character: 8
)

Workflow

User: "Show call graph for process_request"
    │
    ▼
[1] Find function location
    LSP(workspaceSymbol) or Grep
    │
    ▼
[2] Prepare call hierarchy
    LSP(prepareCallHierarchy)
    │
    ▼
[3] Get incoming calls (callers)
    LSP(incomingCalls)
    │
    ▼
[4] Get outgoing calls (callees)
    LSP(outgoingCalls)
    │
    ▼
[5] Recursively expand to depth N
    │
    ▼
[6] Generate ASCII visualization

Analysis Insights

After generating the call graph, provide insights:

## Analysis

**Entry Points:** main, test_process_request
**Leaf Functions:** validate_header, serialize_body
**Hot Path:** main → run_server → handle_connection → process_request
**Complexity:** 12 functions, 3 levels deep

**Potential Issues:**
- `authenticate` has high fan-out (4 callees)
- `process_request` is called from 3 places (consider if this is intentional)
