Build a higher-level map of an unfamiliar code area. Use when you need to understand how modules, callers, data flow, boundaries, and project concepts fit together before changing code.

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

# Zoom Out

Create an architectural map before explaining or changing an unfamiliar code area.

## Workflow

1. Identify requested area and nearest entry points.
2. Read relevant project instructions, glossary, architecture notes, and package
   configuration.
3. Trace imports, callers, message or data flow, and important side effects.
4. Inspect related tests and build/runtime boundaries.
5. Separate verified facts from assumptions and unknowns.
6. Do not edit files, run mutating commands, or propose implementation details
   until the map is complete.

## Response

Use concise labeled sections:

- **Purpose:** What the area does and why it exists.
- **Map:** Relevant modules and responsibilities.
- **Flow:** Control or data movement through the area.
- **Callers:** Important entry points and consumers.
- **Boundaries:** Browser, process, API, storage, build, or module boundaries.
- **Dependencies:** External services, shared utilities, configuration, and
  contracts.
- **Tests:** Relevant coverage and what it verifies.
- **Risks:** Coupling, side effects, fragile assumptions, or likely change points.
- **Unknowns:** Questions the codebase does not answer.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add mithunwijayasiri/dotclaude/zoom-out@sha256:855fbc9df5435a52

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261010.1ebf38d, 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.
