Codebase Research

Read-only investigation of a Datex Studio branch to answer questions about the current state of the code — components, flow source, type definitions, datasources, and configuration — without changing anything.

This is a utility skill. It produces a grounded answer that other skills can consume. It does not create, modify, validate, or deploy anything.

When to Use

Invoke this skill when a task needs facts about the current codebase before it can proceed. Typical consumers:

  • impact-analysis — needs to understand what a config does before reverse-tracing callers.
  • requirements-gathering — needs to inspect an existing report/flow/datasource to extract effective requirements.
  • report-creator — needs to confirm field shapes, datasource output, or existing report patterns before authoring.
  • Any future skill that needs grounded, source-of-truth inspection without mutating state.

Also invoke directly when the user asks questions like:
