Understand before editing.
Explore an inherited repository without guessing where things live.
Explore this project without modifying files. Locate entry points, configuration and the path of a request. Use the Ñaupa graph if available and check that the index matches the current code. Cite paths and symbols you actually read. Separate facts, inferences and unknowns.
Paths exist, the flow cites code and the report identifies gaps. Do not accept a convincing map without sources.
