FAQPage Schema
How do I locate files relevant to a specific feature in a large codebase?

To locate files relevant to a feature in a large codebase, this skill searches common repository locations and returns categorized full paths. It organizes findings into implementation, tests, configuration, and documentation clusters.

What is the best way to map codebase locations without analyzing file contents?

Mapping codebase locations without analyzing contents involves matching file paths and directory structures against feature-oriented patterns. This approach surfaces related files and clusters them by category, aiding navigation and onboarding.

Can I use this to find test and configuration files across a monorepo?

Yes, you can find test and configuration files across a monorepo. The skill categorizes discovered paths into groups like tests, configuration, type definitions, and examples, providing structured results for feature-oriented code discovery.

How do I categorize codebase findings into implementation and documentation clusters?

Categorizing codebase findings into implementation and documentation clusters is handled automatically by grouping matched globs and paths. It returns full repository paths organized by functional role to aid code discovery and onboarding.

Does this codebase locator work across different programming languages?

Yes, the codebase locator works across different programming languages. It applies feature-oriented file discovery and organization to large codebases and monorepos by matching paths and globs rather than parsing language-specific syntax.
