mcp-code-graph: Command for Claude Code

.claude/commands/technical-debt-analyzer.md

technical-debt-analyzer is a command for Claude Code from diffbot/mcp-code-graph. It costs 0 tokens per session (195 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A repository-wide review of technical debt, meaning code problems that make software harder to change or maintain later. It looks for code smells, repeated code, inconsistent patterns, and outdated workarounds.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for a code-quality review, refactoring plan, or prioritized list of technical-debt work across the repository.
Why use it?
It helps reveal which maintenance problems exist, how they affect other parts of the system, and which ones should be addressed first.

Command for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: installed under .claude/.

This is diffbot/mcp-code-graph's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on mcp-code-graph itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything mcp-code-graph configures →

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

technical-debt-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 2mo ago.

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.

What it actually says

Complete Technical Debt Assessment

Assess technical debt across the entire repository.

This command provides comprehensive technical debt analysis by:

  1. Identifying code smells and anti-patterns throughout the codebase
  2. Analyzing complexity and maintainability metrics
  3. Finding duplicated code and inconsistent patterns
  4. Mapping technical debt impact across the entire system
  5. Prioritizing technical debt remediation

Follow these steps:

  1. Use nodes-semantic-search to find potentially problematic code patterns (TODO, FIXME, deprecated, hack, workaround)
  2. Get implementation details with get-code for analysis
  3. Analyze impact and dependencies with get-usage-dependency-links
  4. Find similar problematic patterns across the codebase
  5. Map relationships and impact with find-direct-connections
  6. Search for coding standards documentation with docs-semantic-search
  7. Generate prioritized technical debt remediation plan

This command is ideal for: code quality assessments, refactoring planning, and technical debt management.

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.
