SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Helps identify and report import violations that cross apps or packages within a monorepo, ensuring architectural boundaries are respected.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated Boundary Discovery: Scans for forbidden cross-app and cross-package imports using fast pattern matching, enabling early detection during architectural reviews.
  • Deterministic Deduplication & Issue Tracking: Hashes findings to avoid duplicates and appends new issues to tasks/issues.md with a structured template for traceability.
  • Guided Remediation: Provides a reproducible workflow for triaging violations and enforcing export boundaries across apps.

Quick Start

Run the scan commands exactly as shown and review the resulting issues in tasks/issues.md.

Frequently Asked Questions about scan-boundaries

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I detect cross-package import violations in a monorepo?▼

To detect cross-package import violations in a monorepo, run an automated scan using ripgrep to identify forbidden app-to-app imports, disallowed relative paths, and improper package exports across architectural boundaries.

How does static analysis handle duplicate import boundary issues?▼

Static analysis handles duplicate import boundary issues by hashing findings to deduplicate results. This deterministic approach avoids duplicates and appends only new issues to tasks/issues.md with a structured template for traceability.

What is the best way to enforce architectural boundaries across apps?▼

The best way to enforce architectural boundaries across apps is to use deterministic static analysis to spot cross-app imports that violate boundaries. This provides a reproducible workflow for triaging violations and enforcing export boundaries.

Can I use ripgrep to scan for disallowed relative paths in a monorepo?▼

Yes, you can use ripgrep to scan for disallowed relative paths in a monorepo. The scan uses fast pattern matching with ripgrep to target and identify improper package exports and relative path violations.

What are the limitations of automated boundary scanning for large monorepos?▼

A limitation of automated boundary scanning for large monorepos is the strict 30-second timeout enforced during the ripgrep scan. This prevents indefinite execution but may truncate analysis on exceptionally large codebases.
