SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It prevents users from wasting time figuring out how to use GitNexus by centralizing the available tools, queryable resources, and knowledge-graph schema in one place.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Tool navigation for code intelligence: Quickly map a task (architecture, impact, debugging, refactoring) to the right GitNexus entry points.
  • Knowledge graph schema reference: Understand node types and relationship edges to write or interpret graph queries.
  • Workflow starting checklist: Provide a consistent first step for analysis, including handling stale indexes and which resources to read.

Quick Start

Ask about “how GitNexus works” or “which tools/resources are available” and have the AI read gitnexus://repo/{name}/context first, then use this guide to pick the correct tool or schema reference.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I query the GitNexus knowledge graph for code intelligence tasks?

Query the GitNexus knowledge graph by reading the gitnexus://repo/{name}/context resource first, then consult a consolidated guide to map your architecture, impact analysis, debugging, or refactoring task to the correct tools and schema definitions.

What MCP resources are available in GitNexus for code understanding?

GitNexus provides MCP resources like gitnexus://repo/{name}/context to retrieve repository context, alongside a workflow reference that explicitly lists available tool names, resource names, and their expected outputs for code analysis.

How do I define node and edge types when constructing GitNexus graph queries?

Define node and edge types for reliable graph query construction by referencing the GitNexus schema reference, which explicitly lists the knowledge-graph node types and relationship edges required for your code understanding tasks.

What is the best way to start an impact analysis or debugging workflow with GitNexus?

Start an impact analysis or debugging workflow by following the GitNexus starting checklist, which provides a consistent first step for analysis, including handling stale indexes and identifying which MCP resources to read.

Can I use GitNexus for code refactoring and architecture analysis without prior schema knowledge?

Yes, you can perform architecture analysis and refactoring without prior schema knowledge by using a centralized GitNexus guide that maps tasks to entry points and defines the graph schema for reliable query construction.

Why does my GitNexus query return stale data during code analysis?

GitNexus queries may return stale data if indexes are not updated; the workflow starting checklist addresses this by providing a consistent first step for analysis that includes handling stale indexes before querying.
