Description
gitnexus-impact-analysis is an agent skill for working out what a code change will affect before you make it. It answers questions such as whether a function is safe to change, what will break if you modify something, who uses a piece of code, and what the blast radius of a change is. It is meant to be used before non-trivial code changes, and before a commit, to see what your changes touch. The skill treats impact analysis as the gate that authorises an edit, so it must answer for the repository you are about to change. It starts by binding that repository, and it will not give an impact answer for a repository that has not been identified. Use it when you want a safety check on a proposed edit, grounded in the indexed call graph of the codebase. It is part of the abhigyanpatwari/gitnexus repository on GitHub, which has about 47,900 stars. The listing shows it as free, and it has about 1,900 installs. Its security audits show a warning from Gen Agent Trust Hub, with passes from Socket and Snyk.
