context-map
Generate a map of all files relevant to a task before making changes
Best use case
context-map is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt.
Generate a map of all files relevant to a task before making changes
Teams using context-map should expect a more consistent output, faster repeated execution, less prompt rewriting.
When to use this skill
- You want a reusable workflow that can be run more than once with consistent structure.
When not to use this skill
- You only need a quick one-off answer and do not need a reusable workflow.
- You cannot install or maintain the underlying files, dependencies, or repository context.

# Context Map
Before implementing any changes, analyze the codebase and create a context map.
## Task
{{task_description}}
## Instructions
1. Search the codebase for files related to this task
2. Identify direct dependencies (imports/exports)
3. Find related tests
4. Look for similar patterns in existing code
## Output Format
```markdown
## Context Map
### Files to Modify
| File | Purpose | Changes Needed |
|------|---------|----------------|
| path/to/file | description | what changes |
### Dependencies (may need updates)
| File | Relationship |
|------|--------------|
| path/to/dep | imports X from modified file |
### Test Files
| Test | Coverage |
|------|----------|
| path/to/test | tests affected functionality |
### Reference Patterns
| File | Pattern |
|------|---------|
| path/to/similar | example to follow |
### Risk Assessment
- [ ] Breaking changes to public API
- [ ] Database migrations needed
- [ ] Configuration changes required
