SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Helps engineering teams focus on what changed and its ripple effects by performing impact-aware delta reviews, reducing unnecessary context load.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Update and validate the current graph state before reviewing changes.
  • Retrieve and inspect review context including changed files, impacted nodes, and blast radius.
  • Analyze blast radius to identify high-risk changes, impacted dependents, and potential inheritance concerns.
  • Produce structured findings with risk assessment, coverage gaps, and actionable recommendations.
  • Use cases include PR reviews, post-commit audits, and pre-merge checks for critical code paths.

Quick Start

Update the graph with build_or_update_graph_tool(), then fetch the review context with get_review_context_tool() to see changes and the blast radius.

FAQPage Schema
How do I perform an impact analysis for a code review in Git?

Impact analysis for code reviews identifies changed files and their ripple effects. This delta-review process extracts changed nodes and impacted dependents to reduce context load and highlight high-risk modifications before merging.

What is blast radius analysis in version-controlled codebases?

Blast radius analysis in version-controlled codebases measures the downstream impact of code changes. It identifies impacted dependents and inheritance concerns to help teams focus on high-risk modifications during incremental reviews.

How do I automate pre-merge checks for incremental code reviews?

Automate pre-merge checks for incremental reviews by updating the dependency graph and retrieving review context. This workflow validates graph state, fetches changed files, and packages blast-radius data for structured risk reporting.

Can I use delta reviews for post-commit audits in CI pipelines?

Yes, delta reviews work for post-commit audits in CI pipelines. They retrieve review context for changed files, analyze the blast radius to find impacted dependents, and produce structured findings with actionable recommendations.

What is the best way to minimize review toil for critical code paths?

Minimize review toil for critical code paths by performing token-efficient delta reviews. This approach focuses on what changed and its ripple effects, producing structured findings with risk assessments and coverage gap identification.

Do I need to maintain a dependency graph before reviewing code changes?

Yes, you must maintain a dependency graph before reviewing code changes. Update and validate the current graph state first, then retrieve review context to inspect changed files, impacted nodes, and the blast radius.
