Explore the codebase to map conventions, reusable utilities, analogous features, and data flows relevant to a planned change. Returns raw findings (file paths, patterns, code snippets), does NOT produce a plan. Used by /flagrare:atdd-plan as its codebase understanding step.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Codebase Explore Return raw exploration findings for a planned change. No plan, no tests, no implementation steps. Just facts about the codebase that a planning skill needs to make informed decisions. --- ## When to Use - Called by `/flagrare:atdd-plan` before it writes acceptance tests - Called directly when you need to understand a codebase area before making decisions - User says "explore the codebase for X", "what exists for X", "find patterns for X" --- ## Inputs Receive one of: - A context brief (from `/flagrare:intake`) - A ticket summary describing what will be built - A plain-text description of the change --- ## Step 1: Check for prior attempts Search for branches, PRs, and commits related to this work: ```bash git branch -a | grep -i "<ticket-key-or-keyword>" git log --all --oneline | grep -i "<ticket-key-or-keyword>" gh pr list --search "<ticket-key-or-keyword>" --state all ``` If found, read them. They reveal: abandoned approaches, partial implementations, reviewer feedback, constraints discovered during prior attempts. --- ## Step 2: Identify the feature area …

How to install
mdr add flagrare/agent-skills/codebase-explore@sha256:67d16428cffdb9cfThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260611.9c42181, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
