agentlens
Navigate and understand codebases using agentlens hierarchical documentation. Use when exploring new projects, finding modules, locating symbols in large files, finding TODOs/warnings, or understanding code structure.
Why this skill is useful
Provides a structured navigation framework for understanding complex codebases that the AI wouldn't reliably generate on its own.

What this skill does
AgentLens - Codebase Navigation Before Working on Any Codebase Always start by reading .agentlens/INDEX.md for the project map. Navigation Hierarchy Level File Purpose ------- ------ --------- L0 INDEX.md Project overview, all modules listed L1 modules/{slug}/MODULE.md Module details, file list L1 modules/{slug}/outline.md Symbols in large files L1 modules/{slug}/memory.md TODOs, warnings, business rules L1 modules/{slug}/imports.md File dependencies L2 files/{slug}.md Deep docs for complex files Navigation Flow When To Read What You Need Read This ---------- ----------- Project overview .agentlens/INDEX.md Find a module INDEX.md, search module name Understand a module modules/{slug}/MODULE.md Find function/class in large file modules/{slug}/outline.md Find TODOs, warnings, rules modules/{slug}/memory.md Understand file dependencies modules/{slug}/imports.md Best Practices 1. Don't read source files directly for large codebases - use outline.md first 2. Check memory.md before modifying code to see warnings and TODOs 3. Use outline.md to locate symbols, then read only the needed source sections 4. Regenerate docs with agentlens command if they seem stale For detailed navigation patterns, see references/navigation.md For structure explanation, see references/structure.md
