What problem does it solve?

Efficient codebase understanding using targeted scripts instead of brute-force file reading. Use when exploring unfamiliar code, planning features, debugging, or needing to understand how components connect. Triggers on "understand this codebase", "how does X work", "where is Y used", "what calls Z", or any task requiring codebase context.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Script-driven discovery: detect project type, map the skeleton, identify entry points, and surface core abstractions.
  • Targeted deep-dives: locate definitions and usages, trace data flow, and scope changes with minimal file reads.
  • Use Case: When joining a new codebase, run recon to quickly determine entry points, major modules, and dependencies before reading code.

Quick Start

Invoke the Recon workflow to discover the project, map its skeleton, and perform targeted deep-dives as needed.
