git-history-recon

git-history-recon is a Codebase audits & code health skill for AI agents, published by Jamie-BitFlight in the claude_skills repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates git-history-recon F (54/100) and it passed the safety scan; the rating is based on static analysis only.

Analyze git repository history to produce a codebase risk profile before code review. Probes repo size, runs 7 parallel git analysis pipelines (hotspots, bug magnets, bus factor, contributor momentum, firefighting frequency, newly added files), cross-references hotspots with bug magnets to identify high-risk files with primary owner annotation, and writes walkthrough/recon-report.md. Use before code review to prioritize reviewer attention, at the start of linear-walkthrough Phase 1 Discovery to weight file coverage, or when onboarding to an unfamiliar codebase.

What the scanner flagged

  • over-broad allowed-tools ('*')

Not checked yet

  • Not judged on the rubric yet (not a contender in its category)
  • No blind task eval yet
  • Scope (portable / vendor / repo-internal) not assessed; only the top of each category is read for scope
  • Sibling files (scripts, references) not fetched; security scan covers SKILL.md only
