business-process-trace

A method for tracing a business process through existing software and code evidence. A brownfield system is an older system that must be understood before it is changed.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for documenting observed end-to-end product flows in legacy systems and identifying the code or tests that support each step.
Why use it?
It helps reveal how a real process crosses services, repositories, routes, jobs, and events without filling gaps with guesses.

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

business-process-trace 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 — 90 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/business-process-trace — Brownfield business process

Trace an observed end-to-end business process through legacy/code evidence. Do not invent missing hops. Curated product journeys stay under /journey (FLOW-*).

Owner: Processkit · Accelerators optional: CodeGraph · Docskit · ArtifactGraph

Modifiers (If /legacy is used)

Khi gọi kèm /legacy (vd: /legacy /business-process-trace):

  • Toàn bộ quá trình truy vết (trace) sẽ mặc định hướng về hệ thống cũ.
  • Tham chiếu source code từ legacy-repos.local.json.
  • Ghi nhận evidence với tư cách là "tài liệu khảo cổ", không dùng để build tính năng mới trực tiếp.

Load

Load Skip
Progressive map read (needed keys only) Treating FE docs as architecture SSOT
Cross-repo route/job/event evidence Writing new product FLOW-* without evidence
Step vocabulary in extract business-process-trace.md Full platform-repos.json / .local.json dump

Checkout resolution

For each step [system]:

System id Map
legacy-* (or clear legacy archaeology) legacy-repos.local.json
Otherwise (live portal/api/tests/…) platform-repos.local.json

In-repo-only traces need no map. Cross-repo with missing/empty .local.json or missing key → Gaps + handoff /configure-repo-maps (do not guess paths; do not bypass an empty map). After maps exist, remind platform-dna codegraph:wire if codegraph-<key> is absent. Ambiguous matches → ask the user or Gaps.

Workflow

  1. Discover entrypoint(s): page / API / webhook / command / schedule / job.
  2. Trace steps: page | api | call | persist | job | event | listener | command | mail.
  3. Per step record: system/repo, route/symbol, input/output, sync/async, evidence location.
  4. Mark unverified hops and process gaps; never invent missing calls.
  5. Handoff to /journey only when promoting a curated target journey; handoff to /legacy-spec for module IR.

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.

business-process-trace is a skill published in the GitHub repository raintr91/Processkit (1 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 33 tokens to every session and 951 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 2026-08-31.
