Does it work with monorepos?

Yes, it automatically detects workspace configurations like Turbo, Nx, and Lerna, mapping both intra-monorepo packages and external outbound dependencies.

What happens if no GitHub organization is detected?

The skill will skip the GitHub search phase and rely entirely on local filesystem scans and code signal analysis to build the ecosystem map.

How does StackShift Discover find related repositories?

It scans for 10 specific signal categories including scoped npm packages, Docker Compose services, environment variables, API client calls, shared databases, and CI/CD triggers.

What output does the discovery process provide?

It generates an ecosystem-map.md file containing a Mermaid dependency graph and a session JSON file used for subsequent batch operations.

Can I manually adjust the discovered ecosystem map?

Yes, the skill includes a review step allowing you to add, remove, or confirm repositories before the final handoff to other StackShift tools.

Deployment & DevOps

Maps complex software ecosystems by scanning repositories for integration signals and generating visual dependency graphs.

The StackShift Discover skill automates the intensive process of reverse-engineering and mapping microservice architectures or multi-repo platforms. Starting from a single repository, it analyzes ten distinct signal categories—including Docker Compose files, API calls, and environment variables—to identify related services across local filesystems and GitHub organizations. It generates a comprehensive ecosystem map with confidence scoring and Mermaid diagrams, providing a clear visualization of dependencies before initiating large-scale code transformations or batch analysis workflows.

Key Features

01Interactive Mermaid dependency graph generation for visualization

02Confidence scoring for discovered repository relationships

03Multi-layered signal scanning across npm, Docker, CI/CD, and API calls

041 GitHub stars

05Automated GitHub organization and local filesystem cross-referencing

06Seamless handoff to StackShift batch processing and reimagination tools

Use Cases

01Discovering all dependencies within a large-scale GitHub organization

02Mapping legacy microservice architectures for migration or documentation

03Identifying hidden service connections before performing system-wide updates
