SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Provide a one-call orientation of an unfamiliar codebase by returning a structured map of key facts (languages, frameworks, build-tools, entrypoints, dependencies, and README highlights) so you can jump in quickly without manual grepping. Stateless, no network, local-file analysis using stdlib Python.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Surface languages, frameworks, and build-tools from manifests and config files.
  • Identify top-level entrypoints and dependencies to guide onboarding and exploration.
  • Surface README highlights to establish project scope and usage context.

Quick Start

Run repo-analyze to generate a compact, structured overview of a repository, including languages, entrypoints, frameworks, and README highlights.

Frequently Asked Questions about repo-analyze

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I get a quick overview of an unfamiliar codebase?▼

To get a quick codebase overview, you can analyze the repository structure to surface languages, frameworks, build-tools, entrypoints, and README highlights in a single call. This stateless local analysis returns a compact, structured payload for fast orientation without manual grepping.

What is the best way to identify entrypoints and dependencies in a new repository?▼

Identifying entrypoints and dependencies in a new repository is done by parsing manifests and config files. This local file analysis extracts top-level dependencies and entrypoints to guide onboarding and exploration, returning a structured map of key project facts.

Can I analyze a repository without network access?▼

Yes, you can analyze a repository without network access because the tool operates using stateless local file analysis with stdlib Python. It requires no network connection to surface languages, frameworks, and build-tools from your local codebase.

Does repo-analyze require any external dependencies to run?▼

No, repo-analyze does not require external dependencies to run. It uses stateless local-file analysis with standard library Python, allowing you to generate a structured overview of frameworks and entrypoints without installing additional packages.

How do I surface frameworks and build-tools from manifests and config files?▼

You surface frameworks and build-tools from manifests and config files by running a local file analysis on the target codebase. This extracts the core tech stack and returns a compact, structured payload detailing the project's languages and build configuration.
