How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
11 rules. 5 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 5 are very specific to this project.
5
Common
Most of the 5 edited versions we read keep these.
1
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
5
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Very specific: line 38
If it is --fast: strip the flag, run the scan workflow (passing remaining args including optional --focus).
- Very specific: line 39
If it is --query: strip the flag, run the intel workflow (passing remaining args as the subcommand).
- Very specific: line 43
Check for .planning/STATE.md - loads context if project already initialized
- Distinctive: line 46
Before /gsd-new-project (brownfield codebases) - creates codebase map first
- Common: line 47
After /gsd-new-project (greenfield codebases) - updates codebase map as code evolves
- Common: line 56
Before major refactoring (understand current state)
- Common: line 57
When STATE.md references outdated codebase info
- Very specific: line 65
Check if .planning/codebase/ already exists (offer to refresh or skip)
- Very specific: line 66
Create .planning/codebase/ directory structure
- Common: line 72
Wait for agents to complete, collect confirmations (NOT document contents)
- Common: line 73
Verify all 7 documents exist with line counts
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 5 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.
Files
<objective>
Analyze existing codebase using parallel gsd-codebase-mapper agents to produce structured codebase documents.Each mapper agent explores a focus area and writes documents directly to .planning/codebase/. The orchestrator only receives confirmations, keeping context usage minimal.
Output: .planning/codebase/ folder with 7 structured documents about the codebase state.
</objective>
<execution_context> @$HOME/.claude/get-shit-done/workflows/map-codebase.md </execution_context>
<flags>
- **--fast**: Lightweight scan mode — spawns one mapper agent instead of four. Accepts an optional `--focus` value: `tech`, `arch`, `quality`, `concerns`, or `tech+arch` (default). Faster and lower-context than the full map.
- **--query**: Codebase intelligence query mode. Sub-commands: `query <term>`, `status`, `diff`, `refresh`. Requires intel to be enabled in config (`intel.enabled: true`). Runs inline for query/status/diff; spawns an agent for refresh.
- **(no flag)**: Full parallel map — spawns 4 mapper agents to produce all 7 codebase documents.
</flags><context>
Arguments: $ARGUMENTSParse the first token of $ARGUMENTS:
- If it is
--fast: strip the flag, run the scan workflow (passing remaining args including optional --focus). - If it is
--query: strip the flag, run the intel workflow (passing remaining args as the subcommand). - Otherwise: pass all of $ARGUMENTS as focus area to the map-codebase workflow.
Load project state if exists: Check for .planning/STATE.md - loads context if project already initialized
This command can run:
- Before /gsd-new-project (brownfield codebases) - creates codebase map first
- After /gsd-new-project (greenfield codebases) - updates codebase map as code evolves
- Anytime to refresh codebase understanding
</context>
<when_to_use> Use map-codebase for:
- Brownfield projects before initialization (understand existing code first)
- Refreshing codebase map after significant changes
- Onboarding to an unfamiliar codebase
- Before major refactoring (understand current state)
- When STATE.md references outdated codebase info
Skip map-codebase for:
- Greenfield projects with no code yet (nothing to map)
- Trivial codebases (<5 files) </when_to_use>
<process>
1. Check if .planning/codebase/ already exists (offer to refresh or skip)
2. Create .planning/codebase/ directory structure
3. Spawn 4 parallel gsd-codebase-mapper agents:
- Agent 1: tech focus → writes STACK.md, INTEGRATIONS.md
- Agent 2: arch focus → writes ARCHITECTURE.md, STRUCTURE.md
- Agent 3: quality focus → writes CONVENTIONS.md, TESTING.md
- Agent 4: concerns focus → writes CONCERNS.md
4. Wait for agents to complete, collect confirmations (NOT document contents)
5. Verify all 7 documents exist with line counts
6. Commit codebase map
7. Offer next steps (typically: /gsd-new-project or /gsd-plan-phase)
</process><success_criteria>
- .planning/codebase/ directory created
- All 7 codebase documents written by mapper agents
- Documents follow template structure
- Parallel agents completed without errors
- User knows next steps </success_criteria>
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.
No reviews yet
People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.
- It worked
- Partly
- It didn't
Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
