Codemap Skill

Codemap is a custom skill bundled with this repo.

It helps agents quickly build a high-quality mental model of an unfamiliar codebase by generating a structured codemap and tracking changes over time.

What it does

Codemap is designed for repository understanding and hierarchical codemap generation:

1. Selects relevant code/config files using LLM judgment
2. Creates .slim/codemap.json for change tracking
3. Generates codemap.md templates (per folder) for fixers to fill in
4. Migrates legacy .slim/cartography.json state to .slim/codemap.json

How to use

Codemap is installed automatically by the oh-my-opencode-slim installer when custom skills are enabled.

Run it (manual / local)

From a repo root (or with an explicit --root):

# Initialize mapping
node codemap.mjs init --root /repo --include "src/**/*.ts" --exclude "node_modules/**"

# Check what changed
node codemap.mjs changes --root /repo

# Update hashes
node codemap.mjs update --root /repo

Outputs

.slim/codemap.json

A change-tracking file with hashes for files/folders.

codemap.md (per folder)

Empty templates created in each folder so a Fixer-style agent can fill in:

• Responsibility
• Design patterns
• Data/control flow
• Integration points
