Chromium vs sqry

Chromium is a free, open-source browser project and codebase for developers who build, study, and contribute to it. The project publishes source code, design and architecture documents, testing information, and contribution guidance. It develops the V8 JavaScript engine and Blink rendering engine. Its documented security approach includes sandboxing, Safe Browsing, defense in depth, and safe defaults, with a security team reviewing architecture and helping address bugs. Chromium source code is released under a permissive BSD license, and Google uses the project as the basis for Google Chrome. Build instructions cover Windows, Mac, Linux, iOS, and Android; download archives list Mac, Windows, Linux, and ChromiumOS. Builds are supplied on a best-effort basis from arbitrary revisions, may differ from user-facing Chrome releases, do not auto-update, and do not include symbols. Site Isolation can increase memory use and has stated Android limitations.

sqry is an open-source code analysis tool from Verivus Pty Ltd. It parses source code into an abstract syntax tree and a graph of symbols and relationships, then answers structural questions such as which functions call another. Its documented queries cover callers, callees, implementations, dependency cycles and unused symbols. The project lists 37 language plugins: 28 support full relation tracking, while nine extract symbols and imports. Users build an index before querying; it persists so later queries can load the cached graph snapshot. sqry runs locally on Linux, macOS and Windows, under the MIT license. Its maker says source code stays on the machine and the tool has no telemetry. It offers an MCP server for AI assistants, with 39 tools in standalone mode and a curated subset of 16 in daemon mode. An LSP server works with VS Code, Neovim, Helix and LSP 3.17 clients. Installers are listed for the three desktop platforms, as is cargo installation. Windows executables require bundled MinGW runtime DLLs; the release ZIP includes them.
