gitnexus-impact-analysis

Use when the user wants to know what will break if they change something, or needs safety analysis before editing code. Examples: "Is it safe to change X?", "What depends on this?", "What will break?"

Impact Analysis with GitNexus

When to Use

  • "Is it safe to change this function?"
  • "What will break if I modify X?"
  • "Show me the blast radius"
  • "Who uses this code?"
  • Before making non-trivial code changes
  • Before committing — to understand what your changes affect

Workflow

1. gitnexus_impact({target: "X", direction: "upstream"})  → What depends on this
2. READ gitnexus://repo/{name}/processes                   → Check affected execution flows
3. gitnexus_detect_changes()                               → Map current git changes to affected flows
4. Assess risk and report to user

If "Index is stale" → refresh through scripts/lib/code_intel_index.sh "$PWD" gitnexus fast only from the main checkout; in a linked worktree, use Serena for live branch truth.

Checklist

- [ ] gitnexus_impact({target, direction: "upstream"}) to find dependents
- [ ] Review d=1 items first (these WILL BREAK)
- [ ] Check high-confidence (>0.8) dependencies
- [ ] READ processes to check affected execution flows
- [ ] gitnexus_detect_changes() for pre-commit check
- [ ] Assess risk level and report to user

Tools

gitnexus_impact — the primary tool for symbol blast radius:

gitnexus_impact({
  target: "validateUser",
  direction: "upstream",
  minConfidence: 0.8,
  maxDepth: 3
})

→ d=1 (WILL BREAK):
  - loginHandler (src/auth/login.ts:42) [CALLS, 100%]
  - apiMiddleware (src/api/middleware.ts:15) [CALLS, 100%]

→ d=2 (LIKELY AFFECTED):
  - authRouter (src/routes/auth.ts:22) [CALLS, 95%]

gitnexus_detect_changes — git-diff based impact analysis:

gitnexus_detect_changes({scope: "staged"})

→ Changed: 5 symbols in 3 files
→ Affected: LoginFlow, TokenRefresh, APIMiddlewarePipeline
→ Risk: MEDIUM

Example: "What breaks if I change validateUser?"

1. gitnexus_impact({target: "validateUser", direction: "upstream"})
   → d=1: loginHandler, apiMiddleware (WILL BREAK)
   → d=2: authRouter, sessionManager (LIKELY AFFECTED)

2. READ gitnexus://repo/my-app/processes
   → LoginFlow and TokenRefresh touch validateUser

3. Risk: 2 direct callers, 2 processes = MEDIUM

Update Claude Code (the CC CLI / "clog code") to a new version, or bump the pinned CC version. Use when the user asks to update Claude Code, bump the CC pin, evaluate a new CC release, or says "clog code update". Routes to the canonical, standardized process in docs/reference/cc-compatibility.md — do NOT re-derive the update mechanism by grepping every time. Do NOT use for general "what changed in CC" trivia with no intent to update.

This skill should be used when a session's job is to DRIVE OPEN PRs TO MERGE rather than to write new code — "close out the open PRs", "review and fix the open PRs", "what's blocking our PRs", "which PRs are mergeable". It owns the In Review column: it reads each PR's gate status, verifies and fixes review findings on PRs OTHER sessions built, replies in-thread, and stops at the merge gate for the user's per-PR approval. Do NOT load it for building a feature and opening its PR — that is a build session (`genesis-development`).

End-to-end content creation and publishing. Takes a topic (or generates one), drafts in the user's voice, gets approval via Telegram, and publishes to Medium via browser automation. Invoke with "publish a post about X", "write and publish to Medium", "content-publish", or when an ego-dispatched session needs to create and distribute content.
