Use when the user asks about GitNexus itself — available tools, how to query the knowledge graph, MCP resources, graph schema, or workflow reference. Examples: "What GitNexus tools are available?", "How do I use GitNexus?"
Install with Codex or Claude Copy this prompt, paste it into Codex, Claude, or another assistant, and let it review the skill page and install it for you.
Based on SOC occupation classification
Use when the user needs to run GitNexus CLI commands like analyze/index a repo, check status, clean the index, generate a wiki, or list indexed repos. Examples: "Index this repo", "Reanalyze the codebase", "Generate a wiki"
Use when the user wants to review a pull request, understand what a PR changes, assess risk of merging, or check for missing test coverage. Examples: "Review this PR", "What does PR #42 change?", "Is this PR safe to merge?"
Use when the user needs to run GitNexus CLI commands like analyze/index a repo, check status, clean the index, generate a wiki, or list indexed repos. Examples: "Index this repo", "Reanalyze the codebase", "Generate a wiki"
Use when the user is debugging a bug, tracing an error, or asking why something fails. Examples: "Why is X failing?", "Where does this error come from?", "Trace this bug"
Use when the user asks how code works, wants to understand architecture, trace execution flows, or explore unfamiliar parts of the codebase. Examples: "How does X work?", "What calls this function?", "Show me the auth flow"
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?"

Quick reference for all GitNexus MCP tools, resources, and the knowledge graph schema.
For any task involving code understanding, debugging, impact analysis, or refactoring:
gitnexus://repo/{name}/context — codebase overview + check index freshnessIf step 1 warns the index is stale, run
npx gitnexus analyzein the terminal first.

|---|---|
query | Process-grouped code intelligence — execution flows related to a concept |
context | 360-degree symbol view — categorized refs, processes it participates in |
impact | Symbol blast radius — what breaks at depth 1/2/3 with confidence |
detect_changes | Git-diff impact — what do your current changes affect |
rename | Multi-file coordinated rename with confidence-tagged edits |
cypher | Raw graph queries (read gitnexus://repo/{name}/schema first) |
list_repos | Discover indexed repos |
