Use when the user is debugging a bug, tracing an error, or asking why something fails. Examples: "Why is X failing?", "Where does this error come from?", "Trace this bug"

AI 生成的概览

指导使用 GitNexus 的仓库查询、调用图上下文和执行流追踪来调试代码缺陷与错误。

功能: 该技能提供了一套基于 GitNexus（一个 MCP 代码智能工具）的分步调试流程。它要求代理先绑定正确的已索引仓库，再搜索错误文本或症状，查看可疑符号的调用方与被调用方，读取执行流资源，并在需要时运行 Cypher 或 trace 查询以追踪自定义调用链。最终产出包含仓库与索引新鲜度的根因诊断，并附带检查清单和症状对应方法表。
适用场景: 适用于用户询问某功能为何失败、错误来自何处、谁调用了某个方法，或希望追踪缺陷与异常行为时。也适合处理已索引仓库中的间歇性故障、返回值错误、性能问题和近期回归。
运行要求: 需要访问 GitNexus 的 MCP 工具（list_repos、query、context、cypher、trace、detect_changes），以及一个已由 GitNexus 建立索引的仓库；索引过期时需通过 node .gitnexus/run.cjs analyze 重新分析。该技能不附带任何脚本。

Debugging with GitNexus

When to Use

"Why is this function failing?"
"Trace where this error comes from"
"Who calls this method?"
"This endpoint returns 500"
Investigating bugs, errors, or unexpected behavior

Bind the repository first

A root cause traced in the wrong repository is a wrong root cause.

Call list_repos {} before the first tool call. With one indexed repository, use the examples below as written. With more than one, pass repo on every call: an omitted repo normally errors, but under an MCP policy with a configured default it resolves to that default silently. If you cannot tell which repository is meant, stop and ask. This matters most for cypher, whose statement carries no in-band hint of which database it ran against.

list_repos is paginated, so page with offset: pagination.nextOffset until hasMore is false before concluding a repository is absent.

A stale index describes the code from before your bug, so refresh before trusting a trace, and state the repository and index freshness with the diagnosis.

Workflow

0. list_repos {}                                          → Bind repo1. query({search_query: "<error or symptom>"})            → Find related execution flows2. context({name: "<suspect>"})                    → See callers/callees/processes3. READ gitnexus://repo/{name}/process/{name}                → Trace execution flow4. cypher({statement: "MATCH path..."})                 → Custom traces if needed

0. list_repos {}                                          → Bind repo1. query({search_query: "<error or symptom>"})            → Find related execution flows2. context({name: "<suspect>"})                    → See callers/callees/processes3. READ gitnexus://repo/{name}/process/{name}                → Trace execution flow4. cypher({statement: "MATCH path..."})                 → Custom traces if needed

If "Index is stale" → run node .gitnexus/run.cjs analyze in terminal. Hot-tool staleness names which index answered (branch/lastCommit) and how fresh it is (status). Re-analyze only for behind or diverged — current is identity, unknown is unmeasurable.

Debugging Patterns

Symptom	GitNexus Approach
Error message	`query` for error text → `context` on throw sites
Wrong return value	`context` on the function → trace callees for data flow
Intermittent failure	`context` → look for external calls, async deps
Performance issue	`context` → find symbols with many callers (hot paths)
Recent regression	`detect_changes` to see what your changes affect — pass `worktree` for a linked worktree
"How does A reach B?"	`trace` between the two symbols — shortest call chain in one call

Tools

query — find code related to error:

query({search_query: "payment validation error", repo: "my-app"})→ Processes: CheckoutFlow, ErrorHandling→ Symbols: validatePayment, handlePaymentError, PaymentException

query({search_query: "payment validation error", repo: "my-app"})→ Processes: CheckoutFlow, ErrorHandling→ Symbols: validatePayment, handlePaymentError, PaymentException

context — full context for a suspect:

context({name: "validatePayment", repo: "my-app"})→ Incoming calls: processCheckout, webhookHandler→ Outgoing calls: verifyCard, fetchRates (external API!)→ Processes: CheckoutFlow (step 3/7)

context({name: "validatePayment", repo: "my-app"})→ Incoming calls: processCheckout, webhookHandler→ Outgoing calls: verifyCard, fetchRates (external API!)→ Processes: CheckoutFlow (step 3/7)

cypher — custom call chain traces. Pass repo alongside the statement; the Cypher text itself names no repository, so the result is unattributable without it:

cypher

MATCH path = (a)-[:CodeRelation {type: 'CALLS'}*1..2]->(b:Function {name: "validatePayment"})RETURN [n IN nodes(path) | n.name] AS chain

MATCH path = (a)-[:CodeRelation {type: 'CALLS'}*1..2]->(b:Function {name: "validatePayment"})RETURN [n IN nodes(path) | n.name] AS chain

trace — shortest call chain between two symbols ("how does A reach B?"), one call instead of chaining context hops:

trace({ from: "processCheckout", to: "fetchRates", repo: "my-app" })→ status: ok, hopCount: 3→ hops: processCheckout → validatePayment → verifyCard → fetchRates→ edges: CALLS (1.0), CALLS (0.95), CALLS (1.0)

trace({ from: "processCheckout", to: "fetchRates", repo: "my-app" })→ status: ok, hopCount: 3→ hops: processCheckout → validatePayment → verifyCard → fetchRates→ edges: CALLS (1.0), CALLS (0.95), CALLS (1.0)

When no path exists, trace reports the furthest reachable node — exactly where the chain breaks (dynamic dispatch, reflection, or an external boundary).

Example: "Payment endpoint returns 500 intermittently"

0. list_repos {}   → total: 2 (my-app, billing-api) — bind my-app explicitly on every call
1. query({search_query: "payment error handling", repo: "my-app"})   → Processes: CheckoutFlow, ErrorHandling   → Symbols: validatePayment, handlePaymentError
2. context({name: "validatePayment", repo: "my-app"})   → Outgoing calls: verifyCard, fetchRates (external API!)
3. READ gitnexus://repo/my-app/process/CheckoutFlow   → Step 3: validatePayment → calls fetchRates (external)
4. Root cause: fetchRates calls external API without proper timeout   Repository: my-app  Index: current

0. list_repos {}   → total: 2 (my-app, billing-api) — bind my-app explicitly on every call
1. query({search_query: "payment error handling", repo: "my-app"})   → Processes: CheckoutFlow, ErrorHandling   → Symbols: validatePayment, handlePaymentError
2. context({name: "validatePayment", repo: "my-app"})   → Outgoing calls: verifyCard, fetchRates (external API!)
3. READ gitnexus://repo/my-app/process/CheckoutFlow   → Step 3: validatePayment → calls fetchRates (external)
4. Root cause: fetchRates calls external API without proper timeout   Repository: my-app  Index: current

With a single indexed repository, step 0 returns total: 1 and the repo argument drops out of every call above.
