Does this skill modify my source code?

No. This skill is explicitly configured to run in a read-only sandbox to ensure that analysis remains non-destructive and safe for any environment.

How long does a typical codebase scan take?

Simple analyses usually complete in 5-30 seconds, while comprehensive scans of large repositories with many files may take between 1 and 3 minutes.

What happens if the MCP tool is not available?

The skill includes a Bash fallback command that can execute the Codex CLI directly, provided you have enabled the appropriate permissions in your environment.

What is the benefit of using Codex for analysis?

Codex acts as an expert consultant, providing high-level architectural insights and identifying hidden patterns that simple grep searches might miss.

Can I use this for dependency auditing?

Yes, it is designed to find outdated packages, circular dependencies, and assess the bundle size impact of various libraries.

학습 및 문서화

Analyzes complex codebase structures and maps component dependencies using the Codex CLI in a secure, read-only environment.

소개

The Codebase Analysis skill leverages the Codex CLI to provide developers with a comprehensive overview of their project's architecture. It is specifically designed for high-stakes tasks such as onboarding to unfamiliar repositories, documenting legacy systems, and auditing technical debt. By running in a strictly enforced read-only sandbox, it safely extracts component relationships, authentication flows, and dependency trees, providing immediate clarity on how a system is constructed without the risk of accidental modifications.
