Borda NOT for: $codemap-py:scan-codebase, $codemap-py:rename-refs, $codemap-py:test-impact.
Test-impact split: one-off structural fact → test-impact <target> here; full workflow → $codemap-py:test-impact.
Runtime note
No Codex plugin-root variable or shell persistence. Resolve the installed launcher once as PLUGIN_ROOT/bin/codemap-py; retain its literal in reasoning.
Workflow
Exact file+symbol local edit: skip Codemap only with no unresolved caller/dependency/blast-radius/test-impact/import/source slice. Lifecycle boundary (callback/hook, cancellation/exception, scheduling/cleanup, state transfer): inspect source + named test/oracle; fn-rdeps for caller, fn-deps for callee. Explicit structural/tool requirement overrides. Choose the smallest complete query set.
| Need | Query |
|---|---|
| production module importers / blast radius | rdeps <module> --exclude-tests |
| production centrality / highest in-degree | central --top N --exclude-tests |
| rank/threshold a known candidate set | central --among <a,b,c> --exclude-tests |
| internal-import coupling (not centrality) | coupled --top N |
| direct production callers | fn-rdeps <module::symbol> --exclude-tests |
| callers plus test-module importers | fn-rdeps <module::symbol> --exclude-tests, then rdeps <module> |
| transitive callers / function blast | fn-blast <module::symbol> |
| broken Sphinx cross-references | xrefs --broken <module> |
Routing shortlist, not the parser's full surface. Known syntax: no preliminary help/doctor/scan/freshness. Unknown argument: query <subcommand> --help; unknown operation: query --help. Never guess. Direct/every/all/production/blast-radius callers → fn-rdeps <module::symbol> --exclude-tests; fn-blast <module::symbol> only for explicit transitive, closure, hops, or all-levels requests. test-impact <target> selects transitive tests; direct test-module imports: rdeps <module>, then filter/report tests.
symbol <name> accepts authenticate or MyClass.method; imports: symbol <name> --with-imports; module::symbol belongs to fn-* call-graph queries. Chain module+qualified_name → <module>::<qualified_name> (mypackage.module::MyClass.method). Requested qualified extension method: symbol MyClass.add_feature, not nearby symbol MyClass/symbols <module> listing.
find-symbol '<ClassSuffix>\.<method>$' --exclude-tests --limit 0 finds same-name override candidates, not inheritance proof; verify ancestry/package boundaries in source.
Run each compact query alone: PLUGIN_ROOT/bin/codemap-py query --compact <subcommand> [arguments]. Independent read-only queries may run concurrently as separate commands on a prepared stable index with self-heal disabled (SCAN_NO_AUTOBUILD=1); dependent queries wait. Refresh/self-heal/index writes run serially. Custom-root index: --index <emitted-index-path> --root <same-root>; --root is path resolution only.
fn-blast: never --depth; never invent flags. A complete, untruncated result settles its own graph fact, not distinct sibling queries; do not re-query/read/grep that same fact. Complete-query paths are caller-repo-relative, never Skill-relative. Ordinary repository reads remain allowed for a distinct independent AST/oracle view or source-body implementation/runtime detail. Else name/target only the gap. Missing index: request $codemap-py:scan-codebase.
Counts and scoped rankings come from the query, never hand work on its output: no counting a returned list, no subtracting one call from another, no eyeballing repo-wide central against a candidate set. Rank a set from a prior result with central --among; unmatched names what it skipped. rdeps --exclude-tests reports importer_count and excluded_test_importer_count together.
Truncation at 20 items is a real cap (symbol/find-symbol default); --limit 0 removes it. rdeps --limit N previews static imported_by; default/--limit 0 is exhaustive. dynamic_imported_by/config_refs stay exhaustive. query_complete is graph coverage only: true may mean 20-of-N. index.confidence: exact whole set, partial capped/stale; index.truncated+index.total_available give N. Re-run capped lists with --limit 0; truncated rdeps never settles exhaustive callers.
No arbitrary total-call cap for needed facts. Bounded targeted correction retries per query; if the same correction failure recurs, stop and report the unfinished fact. Never retry a completed fact.
