Step 1: Identify Project Root

Locate project root by finding manifest files:

1. Search for package manager files:

   • package.json (Node.js/JavaScript/TypeScript)
   • requirements.txt, pyproject.toml, setup.py (Python)
   • go.mod (Go)
   • Cargo.toml (Rust)
   • pom.xml, build.gradle (Java/Maven/Gradle)
   • composer.json (PHP)

2. Identify project root:

   • Directory containing primary package manager file
   • Handle monorepos (multiple package.json files)
   • Detect workspace configuration

3. Validate project root:

   • Check for .git directory
   • Verify source code directories exist
   • Ensure manifest files are parsable

Step 2: Detect Project Type

Classify project based on manifest files and directory structure:

1. Frontend Projects:

   • Indicators: React, Vue, Angular, Svelte dependencies
   • Directory: src/components/, public/, assets/
   • Frameworks: Next.js, Nuxt.js, Gatsby, Vite

2. Backend Projects:

   • Indicators: Express, FastAPI, Django, Flask, Gin dependencies
   • Directory: routes/, controllers/, models/, api/
   • Frameworks: Next.js API routes, FastAPI, Express

3. Fullstack Projects:

   • Indicators: Both frontend and backend frameworks
   • Directory: Combined frontend + backend structure
   • Frameworks: Next.js, Remix, SvelteKit, Nuxt.js

4. Library/Package Projects:

   • Indicators: No application-specific directories
   • Files: index.ts, lib/, dist/, build/
   • Manifests: library field in package.json

5. CLI Projects:

   • Indicators: bin field in package.json
   • Files: CLI entry points, command parsers
   • Dependencies: Commander, Yargs, Inquirer

6. Mobile Projects:

   • Indicators: React Native, Flutter, Ionic dependencies
   • Files: android/, ios/, mobile/
   • Frameworks: React Native, Expo, Flutter

7. Monorepo Projects:

   • Structure: Multiple packages in subdirectories
   • Tools: Turborepo, Nx, Lerna

8. Microservices Projects:

   • Indicators: Multiple service directories
   • Files: docker-compose.yml, service configs
   • Structure: Service-based organization

Step 3: Framework Detection

Identify frameworks from manifest files and imports:

1. Read package.json dependencies (Node.js):

   • Parse dependencies and devDependencies
   • Detect framework versions
   • Categorize by type (framework, ui-library, testing, etc.)

2. Read requirements.txt (Python):

   • Parse Python dependencies
   • Detect FastAPI, Django, Flask
   • Identify version constraints

3. Analyze imports (optional deep scan):

   • Scan source files for import statements
   • Detect used vs declared dependencies
   • Identify framework-specific patterns

4. Framework Categories:

   • Framework: React, Next.js, FastAPI, Express
   • UI Library: Material-UI, Ant Design, Chakra UI
   • State Management: Redux, Zustand, Pinia
   • Testing: Jest, Vitest, Cypress, Playwright
   • Build Tool: Vite, Webpack, Rollup, esbuild
   • Database: Prisma, TypeORM, SQLAlchemy
   • ORM: Prisma, Sequelize, Mongoose
   • API: tRPC, GraphQL, REST
   • Auth: NextAuth, Auth0, Clerk
   • Logging: Winston, Pino, Bunyan
   • Monitoring: Sentry, Datadog, New Relic

5. Confidence Scoring:

   • 1.0: Framework listed in dependencies
   • 0.8: Framework detected from imports
   • 0.6: Framework inferred from structure

Step 4: File Statistics

Generate quantitative project statistics:

1. Count files by type:

   • Use glob patterns for common extensions
   • Exclude: node_modules/, .git/, dist/, build/
   • Group by language/file type

2. Count lines of code:

   • Read source files and count lines
   • Exclude empty lines and comments (optional)
   • Calculate total LOC per language

3. Identify largest files:

   • Track file sizes (line count)
   • Report top 10 largest files
   • Flag files > 1000 lines (violates micro-service principle)

4. Calculate averages:

   • Average file size (lines)
   • Average directory depth
   • Files per directory

5. Language Detection:

   • Map extensions to languages:
     • .ts, .tsx → TypeScript
     • .js, .jsx → JavaScript
     • .py → Python
     • .go → Go
     • .rs → Rust
     • .java → Java
     • .md → Markdown
     • .json → JSON
     • .yaml, .yml → YAML

Step 5: Structure Analysis

Analyze project structure and architecture:

1. Identify root directories:

   • Classify directories by purpose:
     • source: src/, app/, lib/
     • tests: test/, __tests__/, cypress/
     • config: config/, .config/
     • docs: docs/, documentation/
     • build: dist/, build/, out/
     • scripts: scripts/, bin/
     • assets: assets/, static/, public/

2. Detect entry points:

   • Main entry: index.ts, main.py, app.py
   • App entry: app.ts, server.ts, app/page.tsx
   • Handler: handler.ts, lambda.ts
   • CLI: cli.ts, bin/

3. Detect architecture pattern:

   • MVC: models/, views/, controllers/
   • Layered: presentation/, business/, data/
   • Hexagonal: domain/, application/, infrastructure/
   • Microservices: Multiple service directories
   • Modular: Feature-based organization
   • Flat: All files in src/

4. Detect module system:

   • Check package.json for "type": "module" (ESM)
   • Scan for import/export (ESM) vs require (CommonJS)
   • Identify mixed module systems

Step 6: Dependency Analysis

Analyze dependency health:

1. Count dependencies:

   • Production dependencies
   • Development dependencies
   • Total dependency count

2. Check for outdated packages (optional):

   • Run npm outdated or equivalent
   • Parse output for outdated packages
   • Identify major version updates (breaking changes)

3. Security scan (optional):

   • Run npm audit or equivalent
   • Identify vulnerabilities by severity
   • Flag critical security issues

Step 7: Code Quality Indicators

Detect code quality tooling:

1. Linting Configuration:

   • Detect: .eslintrc.json, eslint.config.js, ruff.toml
   • Tool: ESLint, Ruff, Flake8, Pylint
   • Run linter if configured (optional)

2. Formatting Configuration:

   • Detect: .prettierrc, pyproject.toml (Black/Ruff)
   • Tool: Prettier, Black, Ruff

3. Testing Framework:

   • Detect: Jest, Vitest, Pytest, Cypress
   • Count test files
   • Check for coverage configuration

4. Type Safety:

   • Detect TypeScript: tsconfig.json
   • Check strict mode: "strict": true
   • Detect Python typing: mypy, pyright

Step 8: Pattern Detection

Identify common patterns and anti-patterns:

1. Good Practices:

   • Modular component structure
   • Comprehensive test coverage
   • TypeScript strict mode enabled
   • CI/CD configuration present

2. Anti-Patterns:

   • Large files (> 1000 lines)
   • Missing tests
   • Outdated dependencies
   • No linting configuration

3. Neutral Patterns:

   • Specific architecture choices
   • Framework-specific patterns

Step 9: Technical Debt Analysis

Calculate technical debt score:

1. Debt Indicators:

   • Outdated Dependencies: Count outdated packages
   • Missing Tests: Low test file ratio
   • Dead Code: Unused imports/exports (optional)
   • Complexity: Large files, deep nesting
   • Documentation: Missing README, docs
   • Security: Known vulnerabilities
   • Performance: Bundle size, load time

2. Debt Score (0-100):

   • 0-20: Excellent health
   • 21-40: Good health, minor issues
   • 41-60: Moderate debt, needs attention
   • 61-80: High debt, refactoring recommended
   • 81-100: Critical debt, major overhaul needed

3. Remediation Effort:

   • Trivial: < 1 hour
   • Minor: 1-4 hours
   • Moderate: 1-3 days
   • Major: 1-2 weeks
   • Massive: > 2 weeks

Step 10: Generate Recommendations

Create prioritized improvement recommendations:

1. Categorize Recommendations:

   • Security: Critical vulnerabilities, outdated auth
   • Performance: Bundle optimization, lazy loading
   • Maintainability: Refactor large files, add tests
   • Testing: Increase coverage, add E2E tests
   • Documentation: Add README, API docs
   • Architecture: Improve modularity, separation of concerns
   • Dependencies: Update packages, remove unused

2. Prioritize by Impact:

   • P0: Critical security, blocking production
   • P1: High impact, affects reliability
   • P2: Medium impact, improves quality
   • P3: Low impact, nice-to-have

3. Estimate Effort and Impact:

   • Effort: trivial, minor, moderate, major, massive
   • Impact: low, medium, high, critical

Step 11: Validate Output

Validate analysis output against schema:

1. Schema Validation:

   • Validate against project-analysis.schema.json
   • Ensure all required fields present
   • Check data types and formats

2. Output Metadata:

   • Analyzer version
   • Analysis duration (ms)
   • Files analyzed count
   • Files skipped count
   • Errors encountered

</execution_process>

• Target: < 30 seconds for typical projects (< 10k files)
• Optimization:
  • Skip large directories: node_modules/, .git/, dist/
  • Use parallel file processing
  • Cache results for incremental analysis
  • Limit deep scans to essential files
  • Use streaming for large file counts

Integration with Other Skills:

• rule-selector: Auto-select rules based on detected frameworks
• repo-rag: Semantic search for architectural patterns
• dependency-analyzer: Deep dependency analysis

<best_practices>

1. Progressive Disclosure: Start with manifest analysis, add deep scans if needed
2. Performance First: Skip expensive operations for large projects
3. Fail Gracefully: Handle missing files, parse errors
4. Validate Output: Always validate against schema
5. Cache Results: Store analysis output for reuse
6. Incremental Updates: Re-analyze only changed files </best_practices>
