Gitnexus Guide

Use when the user asks about GitNexus itself — available tools, how to query the knowledge graph, MCP resources, graph schema, or workflow reference. Examples: "What GitNexus tools are available?", "How do I use GitNexus?"

File contents

GitNexus Guide

Quick reference for all GitNexus MCP tools, resources, and the knowledge graph schema.

Always Start Here

For any task involving code understanding, debugging, impact analysis, or refactoring:

Read gitnexus://repo/{name}/context — codebase overview + check index freshness
Match your task to a skill below and read that skill file
Follow the skill's workflow and checklist

If step 1 warns the index is stale, run direnv exec . gitnexus analyze --embeddings --skip-agents-md from this repo root after the LM Studio embedding server is running.

Skills

Task	Skill to read
Understand architecture / "How does X work?"	`gitnexus-exploring`
Blast radius / "What breaks if I change X?"	`gitnexus-impact-analysis`
Trace bugs / "Why is X failing?"	`gitnexus-debugging`
Rename / extract / split / refactor	`gitnexus-refactoring`
Tools, resources, schema reference	`gitnexus-guide` (this file)
Index, status, clean, wiki CLI commands	`gitnexus-cli`

Tools Reference

Tool	What it gives you
`query`	Process-grouped code intelligence — execution flows related to a concept
`context`	360-degree symbol view — categorized refs, processes it participates in
`impact`	Symbol blast radius — what breaks at depth 1/2/3 with confidence
`detect_changes`	Git-diff impact — what do your current changes affect
`rename`	Multi-file coordinated rename with confidence-tagged edits
`cypher`	Raw graph queries (read `gitnexus://repo/{name}/schema` first)
`list_repos`	Discover indexed repos

Resources Reference

Lightweight reads (~100-500 tokens) for navigation:

Resource	Content
`gitnexus://repo/{name}/context`	Stats, staleness check
`gitnexus://repo/{name}/clusters`	All functional areas with cohesion scores
`gitnexus://repo/{name}/cluster/{clusterName}`	Area members
`gitnexus://repo/{name}/processes`	All execution flows
`gitnexus://repo/{name}/process/{processName}`	Step-by-step trace
`gitnexus://repo/{name}/schema`	Graph schema for Cypher

Graph Schema

Nodes: File, Function, Class, Interface, Method, Community, Process Edges (via CodeRelation.type): CALLS, IMPORTS, EXTENDS, IMPLEMENTS, DEFINES, MEMBER_OF, STEP_IN_PROCESS

MATCH (caller)-[:CodeRelation {type: 'CALLS'}]->(f:Function {name: "myFunc"})
RETURN caller.name, caller.filePath
