explore-local

A command for analyzing a local project with the Repomix repository-exploration agent.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it with the current directory or another local path to investigate code structure, patterns, and specific areas such as authentication.
Why use it?
It provides a quick way to direct the analysis at a folder without manually preparing the repository for inspection.

Made for: Claude Code.

Per session 7 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 590 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan A 0 findings. Scan, not verified.
Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.
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

explore-local 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.

Analyze a local codebase using the repomix-explorer:explorer agent.

When the user runs this command, they want to explore and understand a local project's code structure, patterns, and content.

Note: This command is part of the repomix-explorer plugin, so the repomix-explorer:explorer agent is guaranteed to be available.

Usage

The user should provide a path to a local directory:

  • Absolute path (e.g., /Users/username/projects/my-app)
  • Relative path (e.g., ./src, ../other-project)
  • Current directory (use "." or omit)

Your Responsibilities

  1. Extract directory path from the user's input (default to current directory if not specified)
  2. Convert relative paths to absolute paths if needed
  3. Launch the repomix-explorer:explorer agent to analyze the codebase
  4. Provide the agent with clear instructions about what to analyze

Example Usage

/explore-local
/explore-local ./src
/explore-local /Users/username/projects/my-app
/explore-local . - find all authentication-related code

What to Tell the Agent

Provide the repomix-explorer:explorer agent with a task that includes:

  • The directory path to analyze (absolute path)
  • Any specific focus areas mentioned by the user
  • Clear instructions about what analysis is needed

Default instruction template:

"Analyze this local directory: [absolute_path]

Task: Provide an overview of the codebase structure, main components, and key patterns.

Steps:
1. Run `npx repomix@latest [path]` to pack the codebase
2. Note the output file location
3. Use Grep and Read tools to analyze the output incrementally
4. Report your findings

[Add any specific focus areas if mentioned by user]
"

Command Flow

  1. Parse the directory path from user input (default to current directory if not specified)
  2. Resolve to absolute path
  3. Identify any specific questions or focus areas from the user's request
  4. Launch the repomix-explorer:explorer agent with:
    • The Task tool
    • A clear task description following the template above
    • Any specific analysis requirements

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.
