FAQPage Schema
How do I map codebase integration points and data flows for a new feature?

Mapping codebase integration points requires identifying entry points across CLI, APIs, events, and configuration to trace data flows and module dependencies. This surfaces architectural patterns, handoffs, and potential bottlenecks to accelerate feature scoping.

What is the best way to identify architectural patterns and conflicts during codebase exploration?

Identifying architectural patterns during codebase exploration involves analyzing module dependencies and data paths to reveal structural gaps. This process surfaces potential conflicts and integration risks, providing traceable file and line references for accurate architectural review.

How do I conduct a deep-dive codebase analysis to trace module dependencies and entry points?

Conducting a deep-dive codebase analysis requires selecting a specific topic and depth level to systematically trace entry points and module dependencies. This generates structured findings detailing data flows, architectural patterns, and conflicts with precise file and line references.

Can I perform a quick-scan codebase investigation to assess feature scoping risks?

You can perform a quick-scan codebase investigation by specifying a topic and a quick-scan depth to rapidly assess feature scoping risks. This targets relevant data flows and dependencies, quickly surfacing potential conflicts without exhaustive file-by-file analysis.

Does codebase exploration work for standalone investigations or only phase-based research?

Codebase exploration works for both standalone investigations and phase-based research. It adapts to quick-scan, standard-research, or deep-dive depths, mapping integration points and data flows with traceable file references regardless of the investigation scope.

Why do I need to specify a topic and depth when exploring codebase integration points?

Specifying a topic and depth when exploring codebase integration points focuses the analysis on relevant data flows and dependencies. This structured input ensures the output accurately maps entry points and conflicts at the desired investigation granularity.
