Query Dependencies

Query Issue Dependencies

Shows what blocks an issue and what it blocks.

Usage

When an agent needs to query dependencies:

gh api graphql -f query='
query {
  repository(owner: "joeczar", name: "code-graph-mcp") {
    issue(number: <issue-number>) {
      number
      title
      state
      blockedBy(first: 20) {
        nodes { number title state }
      }
      blocking(first: 20) {
        nodes { number title state }
      }
    }
  }
}' --jq '.data.repository.issue'

Example

Query dependencies for issue #10:

gh api graphql -f query='
query {
  repository(owner: "joeczar", name: "code-graph-mcp") {
    issue(number: 10) {
      number
      title
      state
      blockedBy(first: 20) {
        nodes { number title state }
      }
      blocking(first: 20) {
        nodes { number title state }
      }
    }
  }
}' --jq '.data.repository.issue'

Output Example

  "number": 10,
  "title": "parse_file tool",
  "state": "OPEN",

    "nodes": [
      {"number": 12, "title": "AST walker base class", "state": "OPEN"},

    ]
  },
