analyze

A pre-planning review for unclear or wide-ranging coding tasks. It examines possible approaches and how changes may affect connected parts of a project.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to frame ambiguous requirements, compare implementation approaches, identify open questions, and assess tasks spanning several modules or highly connected code.
Why use it?
It helps avoid writing code before the goal, constraints, and risks are understood. It also distinguishes tasks that need careful planning from simple fixes.

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

analyze 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 — 99 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/supergraph:analyze

Analyze first, implement never. No code until approach is approved.

Announce: "🔍 /supergraph:analyze — framing problem, checking graph risk..."

When

  • Ambiguous requirements
  • Multiple valid approaches
  • Task spans modules
  • Graph shows high blast-risk (hub/bridge nodes)
  • User says "how should I..." or "what's the best way..."

Skip for: typo fixes, config changes, clear mechanical edits.

Workflow

0. Read CONTEXT.md (if exists):

cat CONTEXT.md 2>/dev/null | head -60

Use existing domain vocabulary in all analysis — never invent new terms for concepts already named.

1. Frame the problem:

  • Goal: [one sentence]
  • Known constraints
  • Open questions

1b. Score ambiguity (before grilling):

Signal +1 if...
Ambiguous scope touches multiple modules without naming one
No explicit path no file/package/feature named
Multiple intents could be bug fix, feature, refactor, or question
First interaction no established context this session
Score Action
0–1 Skip grilling — proceed with best available info
2 Show 1-line routing summary, wait for confirm
3–4 Grill: ask focused questions with recommended options

Auto-skip grilling entirely if: user said "go"/"just do it", trivial fix (<15 lines, 1 file), explicit mode command, or active plan already exists.

Grilling rules: ONE question at a time, offer recommended answer, max 3 questions. Stop when goal + constraints are clear enough that approach won't reverse on new info.

2. Check graph risk: Reuse /supergraph:scan context (CBM_PROJECT, codebase-memory-mcp, see references/codebase-memory-contract.md). If targets identified, call detect_changes, search_graph, trace_path, get_architecture, recipes hubs/bridges/cross-boundary. Empty = evidence. >20 files STOP.

2b. Serena (optional): See serena/SKILL.md:Setup. If scan not run, call initial_instructions first, then find_referencing_symbols/find_implementations per target. Skip if unavailable.

Changes

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.

analyze is a skill published in the GitHub repository datit309/supergraph (21 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 33 tokens to every session and 926 once invoked, about $0.0002 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 2026-08-30.
