Tools & Capabilities Breakdown

Myopic Tools (9)

mr_review_status

MR metadata + every discussion thread + resolved/unresolved, in one call

mr_changed_files

a content-free manifest of changed files (paths, stats, noise flags) — no diff content, so it stays small even on a huge MR

mr_diff_sections

the diff grouped by function/class (AST-aware), budget-bounded

mr_diff_lines

the diff as line-numbered hunks — exact positions for inline comments — budget-bounded

dependency_impact

everywhere a changed symbol is used — the blast radius (ripgrep + tree-sitter)

trace_call_chain
