UCE

Universal Compatibility Engine

Know your project before it breaks. UCE is an open-source software engineering tool designed to analyze software projects and identify compatibility problems before they become development blockers.

About UCE

UCE — Universal Compatibility Engine — is an open-source software engineering tool designed to analyze software projects and identify compatibility problems before they become development blockers.

Modern software projects depend on many interconnected technologies: runtimes, frameworks, packages, configurations, environments and deployment systems. A small version mismatch or configuration problem can result in hours of debugging. UCE helps developers discover these problems earlier.

Capabilities

What UCE Does

Compatibility Analysis

Examine runtimes, dependencies, configurations, environments and deployment systems.

Deterministic Engine

Same project + same rules = consistent, reproducible analysis every time.

Privacy-first

Local-first architecture keeps your source code under your control.

No AI Dependency

Transparent rules instead of unpredictable AI-generated conclusions.

Open Source

Inspect, study, modify and contribute to the engine.

Structured Reports

Clear severity, compatibility scores and actionable recommendations.

UCE analyzes a software project and builds an understanding of its technology stack and project structure. The engine evaluates the project using defined compatibility rules and produces a structured report showing detected technologies, potential issues, severity, compatibility scores and recommendations.

Process

How It Works

Project
Parse
Detect
Analyze
Evaluate
Report

A project can be provided for analysis through supported project import methods. UCE processes the project, identifies relevant files and technologies, applies its compatibility rules and generates an understandable analysis report.

Find compatibility problems before development gets blocked.

Deterministic by Design

No AI. No Cloud Dependency.

UCE is built around a deterministic analysis engine. The analysis is based on defined rules and detectable project information rather than an AI model generating unpredictable answers.

This makes the reasoning behind an analysis easier to understand, inspect and improve. Same project + same rules = consistent analysis.

No AI dependency
No mandatory cloud analysis
No unnecessary project upload
Greater control over source code
Open Source

UCE is being developed as an open-source engineering project. The source code is available for developers to inspect, study, modify and contribute to.

Open source allows the community to understand how the engine works instead of depending on a completely closed compatibility system.

Built for Developers

Made for the people who build software.

Whether you are starting a new project or maintaining an existing one, UCE aims to help you understand potential compatibility problems earlier.

Principles

The UCE Philosophy

Detect Early

Find problems before they become blockers.

Understand Clearly

Turn complex compatibility information into understandable reports.

Stay Private

Keep project analysis as local and controlled as possible.

Stay Deterministic

Use transparent rules instead of unpredictable AI-generated conclusions.

Stay Open

Give developers the freedom to inspect and improve the technology.

Built by Ryzova

UCE is an engineering project developed by Ryzova, alongside other independent software projects focused on practical, privacy-conscious and future-oriented technology.

Build software that gives developers more control over their technology.

Universal Compatibility Engine

Open source. Local-first. Deterministic. Developer-focused.

Analyze your project. Understand the risks. Fix problems before development is blocked.
