| description | Query the local code graph (functions, classes, calls, imports) through the Deeplake mount at memory/graph/. Use when the user asks structural questions about the codebase — "what calls X?", "what does Y import?", "where is Z defined?", "what is the architecture / which subsystems exist?". The graph is an AST-derived map of the repo, queried as files (no build needed — it rebuilds automatically). |

Hivemind Code Graph
A deterministic, AST-derived map of the current repository — every function,
class, method, interface, type, enum, const, and module, plus the edges between
them (calls, imports, extends, implements, method_of). It is queried as
synthesized files under the Deeplake mount; there are no real files on disk and
no network call in the read path.
The graph builds and refreshes automatically (on Stop / SessionEnd, gated by
a rate limit + git diff). You never run a build command — just read it.
Use it as a fast INDEX to locate the few files/symbols that matter, then open
them with Read to answer. It is not a substitute for the source.
When to use this skill
Activate when the user asks a structural / relational question about the code:
- "What calls
pushSnapshot?" / "Who uses this function?"
- "What does
deeplake-pull.ts import?" / "What depends on X?"
- "Where is
GraphSnapshot defined?" / "Find the function that handles Y."
- "What are the main subsystems / the architecture here?"
- "If I change this signature, what's affected?" → use
impact/<symbol> (transitive blast radius)
When NOT to use this skill
- Reading the body of a symbol you already located → use
Read on the real
source file. The graph gives location + relationships, not full source.
- Code that isn't committed/built yet — the graph can lag uncommitted edits.
If a file's mtime is newer than the build timestamp, read the live source.
- Languages outside TypeScript, JavaScript, and Python (Go, Rust, …) — the
extractor covers those three, with cross-file
calls/imports resolved for
named imports. For anything else, fall back to grep/read.

Workflow
- Broad? Start at
index.md to see subsystems and the biggest files.
- Looking for a symbol?
find/<name> (or query/<name>) → pick the handle.
- Want relationships?
show/<handle> / neighborhood/<file> → callers/callees, imports.
- Tracing a flow?
path/<from>/<to>. Change impact? impact/<symbol>.
- Need the actual code? Take the
source_file:line and Read it — don't answer from the graph alone.
Anti-patterns (read these)
- "Incoming (0)" does NOT mean dead code. Cross-file
calls are resolved for
named imports (TS/JS/Python), but instance-method dispatch (obj.method()),
dynamic calls, and nested/inner functions are NOT — a zero-incoming symbol may
still be reached via one of those. Confirm in the source before calling it unused.
- The graph can be stale. It rebuilds at most once per rate-limit window. The
SessionStart inject prints the build age; if it's old or you've just edited a
file, prefer the live source for that file.
- Don't try to build it. There is no user-facing build step in normal use;
the hooks handle it. Just read the mount.
find/ is lexical, not semantic. It matches substrings, not meaning —
find/auth won't surface login/credentials unless those strings appear in
the id/label. Try multiple keywords if the first misses.
