holistic-analysis
Forces a full step-back re-analysis when a fix or refactor is not working: traces the whole execution path end-to-end — entry point to exit, every block, every contract boundary, and the full data flow — instead of patching in isolation. Three modes: `fix` (default) for bugs and broken behavior, `refactor` for restructuring, and `review` for PR validation (returns intent-match and system-fit findings for the `pr-reviewer` agent to consume — never run standalone for routine review work). Trigger ONLY once at least one isolated fix attempt has already failed, or on an explicit request for a full execution-path analysis: "step back", "think holistically", "analyze the whole thing", "zoom out", "look at the bigger picture", and "rethink this" qualify in that context only. Never for trivial one-line fixes or first-attempt debugging. Also triggers on "/holistic", "/step-back", "/rethink", "/zoom-out".

Low-risk findings worth noting
W012: Unverifiable external dependency detected (runtime URL that controls agent).
What this means
The skill fetches instructions or code from an external URL at runtime, and the fetched content directly controls the agent’s prompts or executes code. This dynamic dependency allows the external source to modify the agent’s behavior without any changes to the skill itself.
Why it was flagged
The referenced `codexray` CLI repository URL (`https://github.com/mthines/codexray`) is common/reputable unofficial third-party content used as an optional call-graph accelerator, creating a medium operational dependency tier.
