What problem does it solve?

This Skill guides engineers to systematically explore and understand existing codebases, helping onboarding, refactoring planning, architecture reviews, and debt identification.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Entry-point discovery: identify the primary starting points to begin analysis.
  • Dependency tracing: map module relationships and import/export flows.
  • Pattern detection: surface architectural patterns (MVC, layered, hexagonal, etc.).
  • Technical debt identification: surface hotspots, missing tests, and aging code paths.
  • Use Case: When onboarding onto an unfamiliar project, generate a concise map of entry points, dependencies, and debt priorities to inform a plan.

Quick Start

Analyze a new repository by identifying entry points, tracing dependencies, detecting patterns, and surfacing technical debt.
