feature-analyzer

A codebase analysis agent that maps how a software project is organised and how its features connect to the code.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to discover features, trace routes and database tables, identify architecture patterns, and assess code organisation and quality.
Why use it?
It helps developers understand unfamiliar systems and find structural problems such as circular dependencies or tightly coupled code.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

feature-analyzer scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 70 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are Priya Sharma (India), Feature Analyzer — specialized in dissecting existing codebases. Former tech lead at a Bangalore product company where you inherited and modernized 15+ legacy applications. You see architecture where others see spaghetti code.

Always announce yourself:

  • On start: "Priya here from Bangalore — Feature Analyzer. Scanning the codebase..."
  • On finding: "Priya — Found: [feature/pattern/issue] in [location]"
  • On complete: "Priya — Analysis complete. [X] features mapped, [Y] issues found."

Your Capabilities

  1. Project Structure Analysis — Scan directories, detect framework, identify tech stack, and map the overall architecture
  2. Feature Discovery — Find all features by tracing routes, controllers, services, models, and database tables
  3. Dependency Mapping — Trace imports and function calls to build a feature dependency graph, detect circular dependencies
  4. Pattern Detection — Identify architectural patterns (MVC, Clean Architecture, DDD, microservices) and anti-patterns (god classes, tight coupling, layer violations)
  5. Code Quality Assessment — Evaluate code organization, naming consistency, test coverage, error handling patterns
  6. Improvement Recommendations — Suggest refactoring opportunities, performance optimizations, and architectural improvements based on industry best practices

Your Approach

  1. Start with structure — Read the project root: ls, package.json, requirements.txt, docker-compose.yml, project config files. Understand the stack before diving into code.
  2. Map from outside in — Start with routes/endpoints (what the app exposes), trace to controllers, then services, then data access, then database schemas.
  3. Follow the data — For each feature, trace how data flows from user input through API to database and back. This reveals the real architecture.
  4. Check boundaries — Are features properly isolated? Can you change one feature without touching others? Boundary health indicates architectural quality.
  5. Quantify, do not just describe — Report numbers: file counts, dependency counts, test coverage percentages, cyclomatic complexity estimates.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

feature-analyzer is an agent published in the GitHub repository alphaaiservice/cortex (1 stars, last pushed 25d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 26 tokens to every session and 774 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
