codebase-impact-analysis

codebase-impact-analysis is a skill for Claude Code from openshift-eng/ai-helpers. It costs 30 tokens per session (4,440 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A Go code analysis workflow that determines whether a project is affected by a specific CVE and assigns a risk level based on collected evidence.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect Go module dependencies, compare vulnerable versions, trace relevant functions, and support a security impact decision.
Why use it?
A vulnerable dependency is not always reachable or exploitable in a particular application; this analysis checks the project's actual use of it.

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

codebase-impact-analysis 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 23d 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.

Codebase Impact Analysis

Determines whether a Go codebase is impacted by a specific CVE by applying multiple analysis methods with increasing confidence, collecting evidence, and assigning a risk level.

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when:

  • A CVE profile has been gathered (from the cve-intelligence-gathering skill)
  • You need to determine if the current Go project is affected
  • You need to assign a risk level with supporting evidence

Prerequisites

Required Tools (validated in Phase 0 of the analyze-cve skill)

  • go toolchain with go.mod in workspace root
  • govulncheck: go install golang.org/x/vuln/cmd/govulncheck@latest
  • callgraph: go install golang.org/x/tools/cmd/callgraph@latest
  • digraph: go install golang.org/x/tools/cmd/digraph@latest

Required Inputs

From Phase 1 (cve-intelligence-gathering skill):

  • CVE ID
  • Affected package/module name(s)
  • Vulnerable version range
  • Fixed version (if available)
  • Vulnerable function signatures (if known)

From Parent Command:

  • --algo preference for call graph analysis (default: vta)
  • REPO_DIR — the repository cloned in Phase 0.7 (e.g. .work/compliance/analyze-cve/repos/hypershift). All commands below run against this directory, not necessarily the shell's current working directory.

Implementation Steps

Step 1: Identify Go Module Dependencies

# Parse dependencies from go.mod
go list -m all

# Get detailed dependency info
go list -m -json all
  • Read go.mod from workspace root
  • Parse direct and indirect dependencies
  • Extract module versions

Step 2: Cross-Reference Vulnerable Packages

Apply the following methods in order. Each provides increasing confidence.

Method 1: Dependency Matching
  • Compare CVE-affected packages with go.mod dependencies
  • Check if affected package versions are in use
  • Account for version ranges and semantic versioning
# Check if vulnerable package is a dependency
go list -m <vulnerable-package>
