How to give an agent a compact brief of a code area with Hyperfide

Pull matching symbols, callers, callees, and routes into one budgeted context call.

Who it is forA developer or reviewer about to change unfamiliar code who wants a fast, bounded summary before editing.

The problemAgents wander a repository file by file, which costs time and tokens and still misses who depends on the code.

The outcomeOne context packet with ranked symbols, snippets, callers, callees, related routes, and an explicit count of anything cut by the budget.

What you need first

  • A Hyperfide binary built or installed from the repository (install steps are not in the README excerpt, so check the full README)
  • A git repository or a project folder you want indexed
  • Codex CLI or Claude Code installed if you plan to use spec run or fleet up
  • OPENROUTER_API_KEY or CENTRA_API_KEY only if you want the optional model-backed features

Steps

  1. Run hyperfide context followed by the symbol or area name you plan to change.
  2. Read the returned symbols, callers, and callees before editing.
  3. Run hyperfide changes to see the blast radius of your uncommitted edits.
  4. Run hyperfide guard to check whether an edit drifts outside the declared scope.

Prompt for your agent

In the Hyperfide repository, run `hyperfide context` on <symbol or area> and summarize the matching symbols, callers, and callees. Then run `hyperfide changes` and list the affected symbols. Verify that any omitted items are reported as omitted, not silently dropped.

Caveat. The README describes the context command's default budget of 4000 tokens, and language coverage varies by family, so check the coverage matrix for your language.
