Automated summary
Builds a structural AST index of code (classes, functions, imports, call graph) for 12 languages via tree-sitter and allows symbol queries.
Strengths
- Indexes code structure rather than raw text
- Auto-updates via a Claude Code stop hook
- Supports 12 common programming languages
Limitations
- Requires installing a global CLI
- Only works with tree-sitter supported languages
- May be overkill for very small projects
Use it when exploring an unfamiliar codebase or quickly locating symbols before resorting to grep.
Avoid it when you need simple text search or do not want to install additional tooling.
Security analysis
CautionThe skill uses Bash to install an external CLI tool globally and modifies Claude Code configuration. While the commands themselves are not overtly destructive, they rely on an unvetted npm package that could be compromised, and the hook installation alters the user's environment in a way that could be abused. No direct exfiltration or destruction is instructed.
- •Instructs global npm install of third-party package graphify-ts, introducing supply-chain risk
- •Writes to ~/.claude/settings.json to install a Stop hook, which could modify Claude Code behavior
Examples
/graphify build ./graphify query graph.json MyFunctionname: graphify description: "Use when exploring unfamiliar codebases, before searching for code, or after editing files. Builds a structural AST index (classes, functions, imports, call graph) from 12 languages via tree-sitter. Trigger: /graphify" allowed-tools: Bash(graphify:*)

graphify — Code Navigation Layer
Structural index of the codebase. Know what exists, where, and how it connects — before you grep.
Requires CLI: npm i -g graphify-ts
Auto-update recommended: Run graphify hook install once. After that, the graph updates automatically at the end of every Claude Code session via a Stop hook.
First-time setup
npm i -g graphify-ts # install CLI
graphify hook install # install Stop hook for auto-update
Then per project:
graphify build .
Commands
/graphify build — Build index (first time only)
graphify build .
/graphify query <name> — Search for symbols
graphify query graphify-out/graph.json <name>
/graphify update <files...> — Manual incremental update
Usually not needed — the Stop hook handles updates automatically.
/graphify hook install | uninstall | status
Manage the Claude Code Stop hook. Writes to ~/.claude/settings.json.
When to Use
Before searching code: Query the graph before Glob or Grep.
You do NOT need to manually update after editing. The Stop hook handles it.
Supported Languages
Python, JavaScript, TypeScript (JSX/TSX), Go, Rust, Java, C, C++, Ruby, C#, Kotlin, Scala, PHP
From the file to a first result
The download contains exactly the content displayed on this page. This copy may differ from the latest version in the source repository.
View the source and supporting filesThis download contains SKILL.md only. Any scripts, references, templates and dependencies are not included. Get the required files from the source, preserving their directory structure, before continuing.
1. Download the file
Download SKILL.mdFrom the root of a test project, save the file as .skill-downloads/graphify-code-navigation-mryiqg0e/SKILL.md, or use the command below. This folder is for inspecting the skill before installation.
Command for macOS/Linux or WSL: requires a POSIX shell and curl. On Windows without WSL, use the download button and create the folder manually.
mkdir -p '.skill-downloads/graphify-code-navigation-mryiqg0e' && curl --fail --show-error --location 'https://skills-guides.com/api/skills/graphify-code-navigation-mryiqg0e/download' --output '.skill-downloads/graphify-code-navigation-mryiqg0e/SKILL.md.part' && mv '.skill-downloads/graphify-code-navigation-mryiqg0e/SKILL.md.part' '.skill-downloads/graphify-code-navigation-mryiqg0e/SKILL.md'2. Check prerequisites
Read SKILL.md before using it. If it references scripts or external services, inspect them and prepare the required access in your test environment.
Tools declared by the author (check availability in your agent): Bash(graphify:*)
No recognized prerequisites section in this file. This does not mean it is self-contained: libraries, tools and access requirements may be mentioned elsewhere in the content or source repository.
The platforms on this page are catalog indications. The paths below follow tool documentation; they do not prove this skill has been run in those tools. No minimum tool version is confirmed for this listing.
3. Load the skill
After inspection, copy the complete folder into your project using one of the commands below, then open a new tool session. The command stops if a folder with the same name already exists: compare the files before replacing it.
Claude Code
test -f '.skill-downloads/graphify-code-navigation-mryiqg0e/SKILL.md' && test -s '.skill-downloads/graphify-code-navigation-mryiqg0e/SKILL.md' && mkdir -p '.claude/skills' && test ! -e '.claude/skills/graphify' && cp -R '.skill-downloads/graphify-code-navigation-mryiqg0e' '.claude/skills/graphify'OpenSkills
OpenSkills must already be installed. The local install/read procedure is checked with OpenSkills 1.5.0, which requires Node.js ≥ 20.6.0. Catalog slugs are not resolved automatically.

For an agent that reads AGENTS.md, then sync the index. This command changes AGENTS.md: review the diff before using it.
openskills syncManual method or another tool: attach SKILL.md to a conversation, or open it in an agent that can read files. Include any required supporting resources. No universal folder is recognized by every tool.
4. Try a first task
Use a short, synthetic input: an API endpoint, a small document or an interface brief. In a new conversation, attach the file or give the agent its path, then adapt this request:
Read .skill-downloads/graphify-code-navigation-mryiqg0e/SKILL.md and apply its instructions to this example: [describe a test input]. Identify any missing files, dependencies or access. Produce the result requested by the skill without inventing data or running unreviewed scripts.Expected result: output matching the skill instructions, or a precise list of missing prerequisites. A read confirmation alone does not validate a first use. If an external resource is unavailable, that path remains untested.
React Hook Form Best Practices
Development
Master React Hook Form: avoid anti-patterns, manage subscriptions, and handle reset, dirty state, and controlled inputs correctly.
Emotion to Mantine Migration
Development
Migrate Emotion styled-components to Mantine components with style props and CSS modules. Use when converting .styled.tsx files or removing @emotion imports.
Scope Creep Detector
Development
Analyzes git diffs against a stated intent to detect scope creep, unrelated files, broad PRs, and oversized changes, then suggests keep, split, or justify actions.
