summary
Analyze codebases and map task-relevant files before implementing changes.
- ›Automatically searches for related files, dependencies, tests, and similar code patterns to establish full context
- ›Generates structured markdown output with files to modify, dependency relationships, test coverage, and reference patterns
- ›Includes risk assessment checklist for breaking changes, migrations, and configuration updates
- ›Designed as a pre-implementation step to prevent missed dependencies and unin

Context Map
Before implementing any changes, analyze the codebase and create a context map.
Task
{{task_description}}
Instructions
- Search the codebase for files related to this task
- Identify direct dependencies (imports/exports)
- Find related tests
- Look for similar patterns in existing code
Output Format
## Context Map
### Files to Modify
| File | Purpose | Changes Needed |
|------|---------|----------------|
| path/to/file | description | what changes |
### Dependencies (may need updates)
| File | Relationship |
|------|--------------|
| path/to/dep | imports X from modified file |
### Test Files
| Test | Coverage |
|------|----------|
| path/to/test | tests affected functionality |
### Reference Patterns
| File | Pattern |
|------|---------|
| path/to/similar | example to follow |
### Risk Assessment
- [ ] Breaking changes to public API
- [ ] Database migrations needed
- [ ] Configuration changes required
Do not proceed with implementation until this map is reviewed.
