Inspect World-Model

You have access to Cartographer's stored world-model. Use it to answer questions about the codebase with evidence-grounded responses.

Available MCP Tools

• cartographer_query — Search for entities/relationships by kind, name, or involvement
• cartographer_get_entity — Get full details including evidence and relationships
• cartographer_get_summary — See what's in the model

How to Answer Questions

1. Query first — check cartographer_query or cartographer_get_entity before reading source
2. Cite evidence — when the model has source anchors, cite file:line in your answer
3. Flag gaps — if the model doesn't have what's needed, say so and offer to analyze further
4. Separate proven from inferred — tell the user which parts are proven vs inferred

Example Questions

• "What calls the payment handler?" → query relationships involving that entity
• "What are the main boundaries?" → query entities of kind boundary
• "How does auth work?" → get the auth boundary entity, then its relationships
• "What side effects does checkout have?" → query side-effect entities related to checkout

When the Model Is Empty

If cartographer_get_summary shows 0 entities, suggest the user run /cartographer analyze first to populate the world-model.
