description	Use when planning a refactor, changing shared code, or making any modification whose blast radius is unclear - maps affected entities and traversal paths with Cortex before the first edit

Change Impact

cortex impact "<query-or-entity-id>" --json — get the blast radius and likely traversal paths for the change.
cortex related <entity-id> --json on the entities you plan to modify — find every caller and dependency.
cortex rules --json — check architectural rules the change must respect.

Summarize the affected surface (files, entities, rules) BEFORE editing.
A caller you did not list is a caller you will break: verify call sites found by impact/related against the actual code.
Rerun impact after large edits; the change may have altered the radius.
