Understand

Before you start: read this whole install prompt, tell me in a few lines what this skill does and what installing it involves, and wait for my go-ahead before you do anything else. Prerequisites — Use-time prerequisite, disclosed up front: this skill is one of the Understand-Anything plugin's skills. It assumes the Understand-Anything plugin is installed and its core is built (pnpm install in the plugin, then building packages/core, the @understand-anything/core package) — installing this listing only copies the skill folder below; it does not install or build the plugin. The skill works locally on the knowledge graph in your project's data directory (.ua/knowledge-graph.json, or the legacy .understand-anything/knowledge-graph.json when that directory already exists). No account, key or payment is needed to install this listing. Install "Understand" for me. It is the producer skill of the Understand-Anything family: it analyzes a codebase and produces the knowledge graph the other Understand-Anything skills consume. It works in phases (pre-flight, scan, batching, per-file analysis with analyzer subagents, assembly review, architecture layers, guided tour, validation, save) and writes knowledge-graph.json into the project's data directory (.ua/, or the legacy .understand-anything/ when present), with options for full rebuilds, incremental updates, output language and extra exclusions. Its folder is large because it ships its own tooling: deterministic Node and Python helper scripts for scanning, batching, structure and import extraction, graph merging and validation, plus reference guides (10 framework addenda, 22 language guides, 7 locale files for output language). Repository: https://github.com/Egonex-AI/Understand-Anything (the skill is the whole understand-anything-plugin/skills/understand/ folder at the pinned commit: SKILL.md plus 54 companion files, 55 files in total) Pinned version: install the code at commit e24fcf6d371bcfa529bc110bacb1bb43de1b8d33 exactly. Do not substitute a newer version. If this commit is unreachable, stop and tell me. 1. Clone https://github.com/Egonex-AI/Understand-Anything into a temporary folder, check out commit e24fcf6d371bcfa529bc110bacb1bb43de1b8d33, and copy the understand-anything-plugin/skills/understand/ folder from that checkout. Then compare every file in the folder with the fingerprints recorded for this listing on 2026-10-22: [FINGERPRINTS] - SKILL.md: SHA-256 12a224cbe2dfdb49c7262949a30b90fdaed784fe436df23fcec45485e663e625 -

Read SKILL.md in full, and tell me in plain words: what the skill does when used, what it connects to, whether it reads or sends any personal information or credentials, and anything that seems unusual. Stop on any red flag and tell me before going further. Confirm these points from the files: - The folder holds 55 files: SKILL.md (58,941 bytes, frontmatter name understand) plus 54 companions — deterministic helper scripts (.mjs and .py: project scan, batch computation, structure/import extraction, graph merging, incremental validation), 10 frameworks/*.md addenda, 22 languages/*.md guides and 7 locales/*.md files. Those scripts are companions the skill runs at use time on my own project; none of them runs during this install. - Nothing is sent anywhere during installation itself; the only download at install time is the repository from GitHub at the pinned commit. - At use time everything runs locally on a codebase I point it at: the skill text runs pnpm install and builds the plugin core (@understand-anything/core) in the plugin root if that has not been done, dispatches analyzer subagents inside my own agent session, reads my project files, and writes the graph and its config into the project's data directory (.ua/, or legacy .understand-anything/). It reads no credentials and describes no third-party send. - Do not analyze any codebase, do not run pnpm or any companion script, and do not use the skill in any way during this install: using it is a separate step that only starts when I ask for it later. 3. When I say "yes, install", install it as a skill: copy the whole understand folder into the agent's skills directory, in a folder named exactly "understand", keeping its 55 files in their original relative layout (SKILL.md at its root). 4. Verify with no network calls: frontmatter valid (name: understand), the 55 files in place with matching fingerprints. Do not run anything from the folder and do not use the skill to verify. 5. Report what was installed, where, and what I still need to do myself (for example: that the Understand-Anything plugin must be installed with its core built (pnpm install plus building packages/core) before this skill can run, that it writes its graph into the analyzed project's data directory (.ua/ or legacy .understand-anything/), and that using it is a separate step that only starts when I ask for it later). GitHub is optional: if I have a GitHub account or the gh CLI, you may use it; otherwise public access is fine. Never require it unless it's in the prerequisites above. Rules: don't touch anything outside the temp folder and the install target. If anything looks off, stop and ask me.
