# repo-scan

> Every ecosystem has its own dependency manager, but no tool looks across C++, Android, iOS, and Web to tell you: how much code is actually yours, what's third-party, and what's dead weight.

## When to Activate

- Taking over a large legacy codebase and need a structural overview
- Before major refactoring — identify what's core, what's duplicate, what's dead
- Auditing third-party dependencies embedded directly in source (not declared in package managers)
- Preparing architecture decision records for monorepo reorganization

## Installation

```bash
# Copy into your Claude Code skills directory
git clone https://github.com/haibindev/repo-scan.git
cp -r repo-scan ~/.claude/skills/repo-scan
```

> Review the source before installing any agent skill.

## Core Capabilities

| Capability | Description |
|---|---|
| **Cross-stack scanning** | C/C++, Java/Android, iOS (OC/Swift), Web (TS/JS/Vue) in one pass |
| **File classification** | Every file tagged as project code, third-party, or build artifact |
| **Library detection** | 50+ known libraries (FFmpeg, Boost, OpenSSL…) with version extraction |
| **Four-level verdicts** | Core Asset / Extract & Merge / Rebuild / Deprecate |
| **HTML reports** | Interactive dark-theme pages with drill-down navigation |
| **Monorepo support** | Hierarchical scanning with summary + sub-project reports |

## Analysis Depth Levels

| Level | Files Read | Use Case |
|---|---|---|
| `fast` | 1-2 per module | Quick inventory of huge directories |
| `standard` | 2-5 per module | Default audit with full dependency + architecture checks |
| `deep` | 5-10 per module | Adds thread safety, memory management, API consistency |
| `full` | All files | Pre-merge comprehensive review |

## Workflow

1. **Scan**: `/repo-scan` runs a pre-scan pass to classify files and detect dependencies
2. **Analyze**: AI reviews the structured data and assigns verdicts per module
3. **Report**: Interactive HTML report generated with verdict distribution and drill-down

## Real-World Example

On a 50,000-file C++ monorepo:
- Found FFmpeg 2.x (2015 vintage) still in production
- Discovered the same SDK wrapper duplicated 3 times
- Identified 636 MB of committed Debug/ipch/obj build artifacts
- Classified: 3 MB project code vs 596 MB third-party

## Best Practices

- Start with `standard` depth for first-time audits
- Use `fast` for monorepos with 100+ modules to get a quick inventory
- Run `deep` incrementally on modules flagged for refactoring
- Review the cross-module analysis for duplicate detection across sub-projects
