Code Analyzer

Provide comprehensive code explanation through multi-agent analysis for architecture, patterns, security, and performance insights.

When to Activate

• User asks "what does this code do?"
• User wants code explained
• User asks about security or performance
• User wants to understand patterns in code
• Before making changes to unfamiliar code

Quick Process

1. Structure Analysis: Understand architecture and patterns
2. Dependency Mapping: Trace imports and dependencies
3. Risk Assessment: Identify vulnerabilities and issues
4. Performance Analysis: Evaluate complexity
5. Pattern Recognition: Identify design patterns

Analysis Depth

Depth	Description	Agents Used
overview	Quick summary	code-explainer
deep	Comprehensive analysis	code-explainer, security-analyzer, performance-analyzer
architectural	System-level context	All agents + context-loader

Focus Areas

• patterns: Design patterns, SOLID, anti-patterns
• security: Vulnerabilities, input validation, auth
• performance: Algorithm complexity, memory, queries
• all: Complete analysis (default)

Output Includes

• Summary: Purpose, complexity, maintainability score
• Architecture: Patterns, layers, coupling analysis
• Functionality: Main purpose, data flow, side effects
• Dependencies: Imports, exports, circular dependencies
• Risks: Security, performance, maintainability issues
• Improvements: Quick wins and refactoring suggestions

Delegation

For simple explanations, use code-explainer-agent directly.

For deep analysis, coordinate:

• code-explainer-agent: Architecture and patterns
• security-analyzer-agent: Vulnerability assessment
• performance-analyzer-agent: Complexity analysis
• context-loader-agent: System-level context

Examples

"Explain src/auth/login.ts to me"
"What does this API endpoint do?"
"Analyze the security of the payment module"
"Is there anything wrong with this code?"
