- Keywords: code history, git blame, track changes, who wrote this, when was it changed, root cause, code archaeology
When NOT to Use
- Code review (use codex-review)
- Feature development (use feature-dev)
- Just want to read code (use Read directly)
Command
/git-investigate src/service/xxx.ts:123 # Specific line
/git-investigate processToken # Function name
/git-investigate "error message" # Keyword
Workflow
Locate code -> git blame -> find commit -> trace history -> analyze changes -> report
Investigation Framework
| Question | Method |
|---|---|
| Who wrote it? | git blame |
| When was it changed? | git log --follow |
| Why was it changed? | commit message + PR |
| What was missed? | git diff compare original vs problematic version |
Common Patterns
| Pattern | Symptom | Root Cause |
|---|---|---|
| Type removed | Enum value deleted | Assumed no longer needed |
| Condition simplified | If conditions reduced | Missed during refactoring |
| Rename | Partially unchanged | Incomplete search-and-replace |
| Boundary ignored | Only handles main flow | Edge cases not considered |
Verification
- Report includes: investigation target, author info, timeline, original vs problematic code
- Root cause has clear analysis
- Fix recommendation is specific and actionable
