AI Maestro Code Graph Query
Proactively query the code graph database to understand relationships and impact of changes.
Automatic Behavior
THIS IS NOT OPTIONAL. THIS IS YOUR DEFAULT BEHAVIOR.
Every time you use the Read tool on a code file, you MUST IMMEDIATELY query the graph to understand:
- What is this component/function?
- What depends on it? (callers, serializers, child classes)
- What does it depend on? (callees, parent classes, associations)
The Rule
Read File → Query Graph → Then Proceed
DO NOT
- Wait for user to ask you to query the graph
- Skip the graph query because "it seems simple"
- Assume you understand impact without checking
- Make changes before understanding dependencies
ALWAYS
- Query graph IMMEDIATELY after reading any code file
- Query BEFORE making any modifications
- Query when you find files via search
- Include graph findings in your analysis
This is your primary tool for understanding code structure and avoiding breaking changes.
