Opensrc Inspect

Use this skill when source-level dependency inspection is materially useful and API docs alone are not enough.

Workflow

1. Read the repo AGENTS.md.
2. Check existing snapshots first:
   • opensrc list
   • cat opensrc/sources.json when present
3. Prefer safe fetches that avoid repo mutation:
   • opensrc <package> --modify=false
   • opensrc pypi:<package> --modify=false
   • opensrc crates:<package> --modify=false
   • opensrc <owner>/<repo> --modify=false
4. Inspect the fetched source path and cite exact files and versions when using it in analysis.
5. Refresh snapshots after meaningful dependency upgrades if internals changed.

Use When

• You need to inspect a package implementation, not just its docs or types.
• You need source-level evidence for a migration, bug, or compatibility question.

Do Not Use When

• Official docs, types, or direct code inspection already answer the question.
• The task is broad web research or release-note discovery.

Guardrails

• Default to --modify=false.
• Treat opensrc/ as read-only source context.
• Use Context7, Exa, or web.run for official/latest docs and changelogs; use opensrc only for implementation internals.

Outputs

• fetched source target and version summary
• exact local paths used for analysis
• concise recommendation on whether deeper source inspection changed the conclusion
