SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill helps engineers understand how a given area of code fits into the broader system by producing a high-level map of modules and their callers, using the project's domain glossary vocabulary.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Map top-level modules and their direct callers to reveal relationships and dependencies.
  • Provide a broader architectural context, enabling quicker assessment of impact and scope.
  • Useful for onboarding new team members and planning refactors by highlighting key interaction points.

Quick Start

Ask the agent to generate a high-level map of the current code area showing modules, callers, and domain glossary terms.

FAQPage Schema
How do I understand unfamiliar code architecture quickly during onboarding?

To understand unfamiliar code architecture quickly, generate a high-level module map that identifies top-level modules, their direct callers, and domain glossary terms. This reveals component relationships and dependencies, providing broader architectural context for rapid onboarding and impact assessment.

What's the best way to map module relationships and callers before a refactor?

Mapping module relationships before a refactor is best done by producing a module-caller map using the project's domain glossary vocabulary. This highlights key interaction points and dependencies, enabling you to assess impact, scope, and plan larger code changes effectively.

How does a domain glossary help with code analysis of top-level modules?

A domain glossary enhances code analysis by applying the project's specific domain vocabulary to the module map. This ensures the generated architectural context uses consistent terminology, making it easier to navigate component relationships and understand how unfamiliar areas fit into the broader system.

Can I trace direct callers to assess the impact of changes across a codebase?

Yes, you can trace direct callers to assess change impact by generating a caller map that reveals top-level modules and their dependencies. This provides a structured representation of interaction points, helping you quickly evaluate the scope of larger modifications.

Do I need to set up any dependencies to generate a high-level code context map?

No dependencies are required to generate a high-level code context map. You can directly ask the agent to map the current code area, and it will produce a navigable representation of modules, callers, and domain glossary terms without needing external components or setup.
