Ontoly Software Graph
Use this skill when a user asks codebase-understanding questions that should be answered from Ontoly's graph evidence before manual file search.
Workflow
- Check whether the repository already has an Ontoly graph.
- If the graph is missing or stale, build it:
ontoly build .
- Review graph diagnostics, trust, graph hash, and framework detection.
- Query Ontoly through the CLI or MCP before inspecting source files directly.
- Cite graph evidence in answers: node IDs, edge types, route paths, package names, source locations, diagnostics, and confidence.
- Only fall back to file search when Ontoly cannot answer, reports low confidence, or the user explicitly asks for source-level review.
Useful Commands
ontoly build .
ontoly inspect
ontoly graph
ontoly trace
ontoly mcp
Guardrails
- Do not invent architecture relationships that are not present in the graph.
- Separate measured graph facts from inferred observations.
- If evidence is missing, explain which Ontoly query or validation step should run next.
