# Impact Analysis with GitNexus ## When to Use - "Is it safe to change this function?" - "What will break if I modify X?" - "Show me the blast radius" - "Who uses this code?" - Before making non-trivial code changes - Before committing — to understand what your changes affect ## Workflow ``` 1. gitnexus_impact({target: "X", direction: "upstream"}) → What depends on this 2. READ gitnexus://repo/{name}/processes → Check affected execution flows 3. gitnexus_detect_changes() → Map current git changes to affected flows 4. Assess risk and report to user ``` > If "Index is stale" → run `npx gitnexus analyze` in terminal. ## Checklist ``` - [ ] gitnexus_impact({target, direction: "upstream"}) to find dependents - [ ] Review d=1 items first (these WILL BREAK) - [ ] Check high-confidence (>0.8) dependencies - [ ] READ processes to check affected execution flows - [ ] gitnexus_detect_changes() for pre-commit check - [ ] Assess risk level and report to user ``` ## Understanding Output | Depth | Risk Level | Meaning | | ----- | ---------------- | ------------------------ | | d=1 | **WILL BREAK** | Direct callers/importers | | d=2 | LIKELY AFFECTED | Indirect dependencies | | d=3 | MAY NEED TESTING | Transitive effects | ## Risk Assessment | Affected | Risk | | ------------------------------ | -------- | | <5 symbols, few processes | LOW | | 5-15 symbols,
