Night Market Skill — ported from claude-night-market/sanctum. For the full experience with agents, hooks, and commands, install the Claude Code plugin.
File Analysis#
When To Use#
- Before architecture reviews to understand module boundaries and file organization.
- When exploring unfamiliar codebases to map structure before making changes.
- As input to scope estimation for refactoring or migration work.
When NOT To Use#
- General code exploration - use the Explore agent
- Searching for specific patterns - use Grep directly
Required TodoWrite Items#
file-analysis:root-identified
file-analysis:structure-mapped
file-analysis:patterns-detected
file-analysis:hotspots-noted
Mark each item as complete as you finish the corresponding step.
Step 1: Identify Root ( file-analysis:root-identified)#
- Confirm the analysis root directory with
pwd.
- Note any monorepo boundaries, workspace roots, or subproject paths.
- Capture the project type (language, framework) from manifest files (
package.json, Cargo.toml, pyproject.toml, etc.).
Step 2: Map Structure ( file-analysis:structure-mapped)#
- Run
tree -L 2 -d or find . -type d -maxdepth 2 to capture the top-level directory layout.
- Identify standard directories:
src/, lib/, tests/, docs/, scripts/, configs/.
- Note any non-standard organization patterns that may affect downstream analysis.
Step 3: Detect Patterns ( file-analysis:patterns-detected)#
- Use
find . -name "*.ext" -not -path "*/.venv/*" -not -path "*/__pycache__/*" -not -path "*/node_modules/*" -not -path "*/.git/*" | wc -l to count files by extension.
- Identify dominant languages and their file distributions.
- Note configuration files, generated files, and vendored dependencies.
- Run
wc -l $(find . -not -path "*/.venv/*" -not -path "*/__pycache__/*" -not -path "*/node_modules/*" -not -path "*/.git/*" -name "*.py" -o -name "*.rs" | head -20) to sample file sizes.
Step 4: Note Hotspots ( file-analysis:hotspots-noted)#
- Identify large files (potential "god objects"):
find . -type f -exec wc -l {} + | sort -rn | head -10.
- Flag deeply nested directories that may indicate complexity.
- Note files with unusual naming conventions or placement.
Exit Criteria#
TodoWrite items are completed with concrete observations.
- Downstream workflows (architecture review, refactoring) have structural context.
- File counts, directory layout, and hotspots are documented for reference.
