Analyzes code change impact with risk scoring and affected-node mapping. Use before merging to understand what a change touches and what lacks test coverage

Blast Radius Analysis
Analyze the impact of current code changes using the code knowledge graph.
Prerequisites
This skill requires the gauntlet plugin for graph data. Check if it's available:
GRAPH_QUERY=$(find ~/.claude/plugins -name "graph_query.py" -path "*/gauntlet/*" 2>/dev/null | head -1)
If gauntlet is not installed (GRAPH_QUERY is empty):
Fall back to a manual impact analysis using git diff
and grep to trace imports and call sites. Skip graph
steps and go directly to step 3 (manual mode).
If gauntlet is installed but no graph.db exists:
Tell the user: "Run /gauntlet-graph build first."
Steps
1. Show current changes: Run git diff --stat to
show the user what files changed.
2. Run impact analysis (requires gauntlet):
python3 "$GRAPH_QUERY" \
--action impact --base-ref HEAD --depth 2
Fallback tier 1 (sem available, no gauntlet): Use sem for cross-file dependency tracing:
if command -v sem &>/dev/null; then
sem impact --json
fi
This traces real function-level dependencies instead
of filename matching. See leyline:sem-integration
for detection patterns.
Fallback tier 2 (no sem, no gauntlet): Trace callers of changed functions with rg (or grep):
# Prefer rg for speed; fall back to grep
if command -v rg &>/dev/null; then
git diff --name-only HEAD | while read f; do
rg -l "$(basename $f .py)" --type py . 2>/dev/null
done | sort -u
else
git diff --name-only HEAD | while read f; do
grep -rl "$(basename $f .py)" --include="*.py" . 2>/dev/null
done | sort -u
fi
3. Display results in priority order:
Format the output as a table:
Risk | Node | File | Reason
0.85 | auth.py::verify_token | auth.py:45 | untested, security
0.62 | db.py::execute_query | db.py:112 | high fan-in
0.41 | api.py::handle_request | api.py:78 | flow participant
4. Highlight untested functions: List any affected functions that lack test coverage (no TESTED_BY edge).
5. Show overall risk: Display the overall risk level (low/medium/high) based on the maximum risk score.
6. Suggest actions: - For high-risk nodes: "Consider adding tests before merging" - For security-sensitive nodes: "Review authentication and authorization logic carefully" - For high-fan-in nodes: "Changes here affect many callers; verify backward compatibility"
Risk Scoring Model
Five weighted factors (sum capped at 1.0):
| Factor | Weight | Meaning | |--------|--------|---------| | Test gap | 0.30 | No test coverage | | Security | 0.20 | Auth/crypto/SQL keywords | | Flow participation | 0.25 | Part of execution flows | | Cross-community | 0.15 | Called from other modules | | Caller count | 0.10 | High fan-in function |
