17
-
18
- ## 1. System Entry Points (Always Read First)
19
-
20
- ```
21
- Priority 1 Identify project type:
22
- package.json → dependencies, scripts, node version, framework version
23
- tsconfig.json → target, paths, strictness settings
24
- .env.example → required environment variables (reveals integrations)
25
-
26
- Priority 2 Framework-specific entry points:
27
- Next.js: app/layout.tsx, app/page.tsx, middleware.ts
28
- Express: src/app.ts or src/index.ts → where routes are registered
29
- Fastify: src/server.ts plugin registration order
30
- Prisma: prisma/schema.prisma complete data model
31
-
32
- Priority 3 Config files:
33
- next.config.js custom webpack, rewrites, headers
34
- tailwind.config.ts → design system tokens
35
- vitest.config.ts → test setup, coverage settings
36
- .github/workflows/ → exactly what CI runs (ground truth)
37
- ```
38
-
39
- ---
40
-
41
- ## 2. Dependency Graph Reading
42
-
43
- Before understanding the code, understand what it depends on:
44
-
45
- ```bash
46
- # What does this project use?
47
- cat package.json | jq '.dependencies, .devDependencies'
48
-
49
- # How old is this code? (Git history)
50
- git log --oneline -20 # Last 20 commits
51
-
52
- # What has active development?
53
- git log --stat --since="3 months ago" --name-only | grep -v commit | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn
54
- # → Files with highest change frequency are highest-impact areas
55
- ```
56
-
57
- ---
58
-
59
- ## 3. Architecture Pattern Identification
60
-
61
- ```
62
- Questions to answer from reading the codebase:
63
-
64
- Authentication: How is auth implemented?
65
- □ next-auth / auth.js (look for auth.ts, [...nextauth]/)
66
- JWT manually (look for jwt.verify in middleware)
67
- Clerk/Auth0 (look for clerkMiddleware or auth0 imports)
68
-
69
- Data layer: How is data accessed?
70
- □ Prisma (look for prisma/schema.prisma, imports from @prisma/client)
71
- Drizzle (look for drizzle.config.ts, imports from drizzle-orm)
72
- Raw SQL (look for pg, mysql2, better-sqlite3 imports)
73
-
74
- State management: How is client state managed?
75
- Zustand (look for create() from 'zustand')
76
- □ Redux (look for configureStore, createSlice)
77
- React Query (look for useQuery, QueryClient)
78
- useState only (simple apps — fine)
79
-
80
- API pattern: How is business logic exposed?
81
- Next.js Route Handlers (app/api/**/*.ts)
82
- □ Next.js Server Actions (functions with 'use server')
83
- □ Express routes (app.get/post/put/delete)
84
- □ tRPC (look for createTRPCRouter, trpc imports)
85
- ```
86
-
87
- ---
88
-
89
- ## 4. Dead Code Detection
90
-
91
- ```bash
92
- # Find files not imported anywhere
93
- # (Approximate won't catch dynamic imports)
94
- git ls-files --others --exclude-standard # Untracked files
95
-
96
- # TypeScript: identify exports not used
97
- npx ts-prune # Lists exported items with no external consumers
98
-
99

- ## 5. Impact Zone Analysis
106
-
107
- Before any modification, map the impact zone:
108
-
109
- ```bash
110
- # Who imports this file?
111
- grep -r "from '.*target-module'" src/ --include="*.ts" --include="*.tsx"
112
-
113
- # Who imports this specific function?
114
- grep -r "{ targetFunction }" src/ --include="*.ts" --include="*.tsx"
115
-
116
- # What does this file depend on?
117
- # Read the import statements at the top of the target file
118
- ```
119
-
120
- **Rule:** Never modify a file without first understanding who calls it and how many places would be affected.

- ## 6. Orientation Report Format
125
-
126
- ```markdown
127
- # Codebase Orientation Report [Project Name]
128
-
129
- ## Stack Identified
130
- - Framework: Next.js 15 App Router
131
- - Language: TypeScript 5.4 (strict mode)
132
- - Database: PostgreSQL via Prisma 6
133
- - Auth: next-auth v5 (new 'auth' package)
134
- - State: Zustand + TanStack Query
135
- - Styling: Tailwind CSS v4
136
-
137
- ## Architecture Pattern
138
- [Server-side rendering with RSC, Client Components only for interaction,
139
- Server Actions for mutations, Route Handlers for webhooks]
140
-
141
- ## Entry Points
142
- - Root layout: app/layout.tsx (fonts, theme, auth provider)
143
- - Auth guard: middleware.ts (protects /dashboard routes)
144
- - DB client: src/lib/db.ts (singleton Prisma instance)
145
-
146
- ## High-Traffic Files (High Change Frequency)
147
- - src/app/dashboard/page.tsx (modified 23 times last 3 months)
148
- - src/lib/auth.ts (modified 18 times)
149
-
150
- ## Dead Code Suspects
151
- - src/lib/legacy-api.ts (no imports found)
152
- - src/components/OldModal.tsx (no imports found)
153
-
154
- ## Technical Debt
155
- - 7 TODO comments in src/app/checkout/
156
- - 2 FIXME in src/lib/payment.ts
157
-
158
- ## Risk Areas (High Impact, High Complexity)
159
- - src/lib/auth.ts — 14 files import from this, any change has wide impact
160
- - prisma/schema.prisma — schema migrations affect all DB-touching code
161
- ```

166
-
167
- ### Pre-Delivery Checklist
168
-
169
- ```
170
- ✅ package.json read — framework, key dependencies, and versions identified
171
- ✅ .env.example read — all required integrations understood
172
- ✅ Framework entry points read (layout.tsx, middleware.ts, app.ts)
173
- ✅ Auth implementation identified (next-auth, Clerk, manual JWT)
174
- ✅ Data layer identified (Prisma, Drizzle, raw SQL)
175
- ✅ Impact zone mapped for any files to be modified
176
- ✅ Dead code suspects identified via import-grep scanning
177
- ✅ High-frequency change files identified via git log --stat
178
- ✅ Orientation report produced before any modification begins
179
- ✅ Risk areas (widely-imported files) flagged for careful modification
180

14
+
15
+ ## 1. System Entry Points (Always Read First)
16
+
17
+ ```
18
+ Priority 1 Identify project type:
19
+ package.json → dependencies, scripts, node version, framework version
20
+ tsconfig.json → target, paths, strictness settings
21
+ .env.example → required environment variables (reveals integrations)
22
+
23
+ Priority 2 Framework-specific entry points:
24
+ Next.js: app/layout.tsx, app/page.tsx, middleware.ts
25
+ Express: src/app.ts or src/index.ts → where routes are registered
26
+ Fastify: src/server.ts plugin registration order
27
+ Prisma: prisma/schema.prisma complete data model
28
+
29
+ Priority 3 Config files:
30
+ next.config.js custom webpack, rewrites, headers
31
+ tailwind.config.ts → design system tokens
32
+ vitest.config.ts → test setup, coverage settings
33
+ .github/workflows/ exactly what CI runs (ground truth)
34
+ ```
35
+
36
+ ---
37
+
38
+ ## 2. Dependency Graph Reading
39
+
40
+ Before understanding the code, understand what it depends on:
41
+
42
+ ```bash
43
+ # What does this project use?
44
+ cat package.json | jq '.dependencies, .devDependencies'
45
+
46
+ # How old is this code? (Git history)
47
+ git log --oneline -20 # Last 20 commits
48
+
49
+ # What has active development?
50
+ git log --stat --since="3 months ago" --name-only | grep -v commit | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn
51
+ # → Files with highest change frequency are highest-impact areas
52
+ ```
53
+
54
+ ---
55
+
56
+ ## 3. Architecture Pattern Identification
57
+
58
+ ```
59
+ Questions to answer from reading the codebase:
60
+
61
+ Authentication: How is auth implemented?
62
+ next-auth / auth.js (look for auth.ts, [...nextauth]/)
63
+ □ JWT manually (look for jwt.verify in middleware)
64
+ Clerk/Auth0 (look for clerkMiddleware or auth0 imports)
65
+
66
+ Data layer: How is data accessed?
67
+ Prisma (look for prisma/schema.prisma, imports from @prisma/client)
68
+ □ Drizzle (look for drizzle.config.ts, imports from drizzle-orm)
69
+ Raw SQL (look for pg, mysql2, better-sqlite3 imports)
70
+
71
+ State management: How is client state managed?
72
+ Zustand (look for create() from 'zustand')
73
+ □ Redux (look for configureStore, createSlice)
74
+ React Query (look for useQuery, QueryClient)
75
+ useState only (simple apps fine)
76
+
77
+ API pattern: How is business logic exposed?
78
+ Next.js Route Handlers (app/api/**/*.ts)
79
+ □ Next.js Server Actions (functions with 'use server')
80
+ Express routes (app.get/post/put/delete)
81
+ tRPC (look for createTRPCRouter, trpc imports)
82
+ ```
83
+
84
+ ---
85
+
86
+ ## 4. Dead Code Detection
87
+
88
+ ```bash
89
+ # Find files not imported anywhere
90
+ # (Approximate — won't catch dynamic imports)
91
+ git ls-files --others --exclude-standard # Untracked files
92
+
93
+ # TypeScript: identify exports not used
94
+ npx ts-prune # Lists exported items with no external consumers
95
+
96
+ # Find TODO/FIXME/HACK comments (technical debt markers)
97
+ grep -r "TODO\|FIXME\|HACK\|XXX" src/ --include="*.ts" --include="*.tsx"
98
+ ```
99
+
100
+ ---
101
+
102
+ ## 5. Impact Zone Analysis
103
+
104
+ Before any modification, map the impact zone:
105
+
106
+ ```bash
107
+ # Who imports this file?
108
+ grep -r "from '.*target-module'" src/ --include="*.ts" --include="*.tsx"
109
+
110
+ # Who imports this specific function?
111
+ grep -r "{ targetFunction }" src/ --include="*.ts" --include="*.tsx"
112
+
113
+ # What does this file depend on?
114
+ # Read the import statements at the top of the target file
115
+ ```
116
+
117
+ **Rule:** Never modify a file without first understanding who calls it and how many places would be affected.
