codebase-analyzer
Analyze implementation details, trace data flow, and explain technical workings with precise file:line references. Use when you need to understand HOW code works.
npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill codebase-analyzer-d-o-hub-rust-self-learning-m --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Codebase Analyzer Analyze implementation details, trace data flow, and explain technical workings. ## When to Use - Understanding how a specific feature works - Tracing data flow from entry to exit - Documenting API contracts - Understanding business logic - Reading multiple files to understand a single feature ## Analysis Strategy ### Step 1: Read Entry Points - Start with main files mentioned - Look for exports, public methods - Identify component "surface area" ### Step 2: Follow Code Path - Trace function calls step by step - Read each file in the flow - Note data transformations - Identify external dependencies ### Step 3: Document Key Logic - Describe validation, transformation, error handling - Explain complex algorithms - Note configuration or feature flags ## Output Format ```markdown ## Analysis: [Feature Name] ### Overview [2-3 sentence summary] ### Entry Points - `file:line` - Description ### Core Implementation #### 1. Component (`file:line-start-end`) - What it does - Key transformations #### 2. Next Component (`file:line`) - How data flows in - How data flows out ### Data Flow 1. `entry:line` - Initial request 2. `handler:line` - Processing 3. `storage:line` - Pers

What does the codebase-analyzer skill do?
Analyze implementation details, trace data flow, and explain technical workings with precise file:line references. Use when you need to understand HOW code works.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill codebase-analyzer-d-o-hub-rust-self-learning-m --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From majiayu000/claude-skill-registry, a repository with 534 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
