SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires gitnexus.

What problem does it solve? Developers using GitNexus need a single reference for its MCP tools, resources, and graph schema before they can query a codebase knowledge graph effectively. This Skill provides that quick reference so you know which tool or resource to use for architecture exploration, impact analysis, debugging, or refactoring. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Tool Reference: Documents the seven GitNexus MCP tools (query, context, impact, detect_changes, rename, cypher, list_repos) and what each returns. - Resource Navigation: Lists lightweight gitnexus:// resources for repo context, clusters, processes, and schema discovery. - Graph Schema & Cypher: Defines the node types (File, Function, Class, Method) and edge relations (CALLS, IMPORTS, EXTENDS) with example Cypher queries. - Use Case: When you ask "What GitNexus tools are available?" or "How do I trace what breaks if I change this function?", this Skill routes you to the right tool, resource, or sibling skill workflow. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to show which GitNexus tool to use for analyzing the impact of renaming a function in the indexed repository.

FAQPage Schema
How do I query a codebase knowledge graph with GitNexus?▼

Start by reading the gitnexus://repo/{name}/context resource to check index freshness, then use the query tool for concept-based execution flows or the cypher tool for raw graph queries. Read the schema resource before writing Cypher.

What tools does the GitNexus MCP server provide?▼

GitNexus provides seven tools: query for process-grouped code intelligence, context for 360-degree symbol views, impact for blast radius analysis, detect_changes for git-diff impact, rename for coordinated renames, cypher for raw graph queries, and list_repos for discovering indexed repositories.

How do I analyze what breaks if I change a function?▼

Use the impact tool, which returns the symbol's blast radius at depths 1, 2, and 3 with confidence scores. For uncommitted changes, use detect_changes to see what your current git diff affects.

Does GitNexus require indexing before use?▼

Yes, the repository must be indexed first by running npx gitnexus analyze in the terminal. The context resource warns if the index is stale, in which case you should re-run the analysis.

What graph schema does GitNexus use for Cypher queries?▼

The graph contains File, Function, Class, Interface, Method, Community, and Process nodes connected by CodeRelation edges typed CALLS, IMPORTS, EXTENDS, IMPLEMENTS, DEFINES, MEMBER_OF, and STEP_IN_PROCESS.
