How does this skill identify risks?

It parses your project's documentation, dependency tree, and design indexes to determine how many features are affected and if the change touches core architectural components.

What is the Katachi framework?

Katachi is a structured development approach that uses specific documentation patterns, like feature specs and ADRs, to manage complex software projects effectively within AI-assisted workflows.

Can it automatically update my files?

While it identifies what needs to change, it guides you through the process of updating specs or creating new ADRs via interactive prompts rather than overwriting files silently.

Do I need to have existing documentation?

Yes, this skill requires an initialized framework with documentation in the docs/ directory to provide a meaningful analysis of your project's features and dependencies.

生产力与工作流

Evaluates the systemic consequences of proposed code changes on project features, dependencies, and architectural documentation.

Analyze-impact is a sophisticated diagnostic tool for developers using the Katachi framework to understand the ripple effects of a change before implementation. By cross-referencing feature specifications, design designs, and Architecture Decision Records (ADRs), it identifies direct and transitive impacts, assigns risk levels from Isolated to Structural, and provides actionable recommendations. This skill ensures that complex systems remain coherent and that documentation stays in sync with evolving codebases, preventing regressions and technical debt.
