What it does

Use when you need to generate an onboarding guide for new team members joining a project

/understand-onboard

Generate a comprehensive onboarding guide from the project's knowledge graph.

Graph Structure Reference

The knowledge graph JSON has this structure:

  • project, {name, description, languages, frameworks, analyzedAt, gitCommitHash}
  • nodes[], each has {id, type, name, filePath?, summary, tags[], complexity, languageNotes?}
    • Code node types: file, function, class, module, concept
    • Non-code node types: config, document, service, table, endpoint, pipeline, schema, resource
    • Domain/knowledge node types: domain, flow, step, article, entity, topic, claim, source
    • IDs use the node type as prefix, e.g. file:path, function:path:name, config:path, article:path
  • edges[], each has {source, target, type, direction, weight}
    • Key types: imports, contains, calls, depends_on, configures, documents, deploys, triggers, contains_flow, flow_step, related, cites
  • layers[], each has {id, name, description, nodeIds[]}
  • tour[], each has {order, title, description, nodeIds[]}

How to Read Efficiently

  1. Use Grep to search within the JSON for relevant entries BEFORE reading the full file
  2. Only read sections you need, don't dump the entire graph into context
  3. Node names and summaries are the most useful fields for understanding
  4. Edges tell you how components connect, follow imports and calls for dependency chains

Instructions

  1. Resolve the data directory $UA_DIR. Run UA_DIR=$([ -d .understand-anything ] && echo .understand-anything || echo .ua), this is the legacy .understand-anything/ when it already exists, otherwise the new .ua/. Check that $UA_DIR/knowledge-graph.json exists. If not, tell the user to run /understand first.
