Quick start

This page is the fastest path to the real v5.5 workflow.

1. Install or run directly

bash

npx sigmap

You can also install globally:

bash

npm install -g sigmap
sigmap

bash

sigmap

That writes the default context file and builds the signature index your tools will use.

bash

sigmap ask "explain the auth flow"

This creates a focused context file for the current task instead of forcing the model to reason over the whole repo.

bash

sigmap validate --query "auth login token"

If coverage is low, fix that before trusting the answer.

Save the model answer to a file, then score its groundedness:

bash

sigmap judge --response response.txt --context .context/query-context.md

That tells you whether the answer looks supported by the supplied code context.

If you want SigMap to stay fresh in the background:

bash

sigmap --setup
sigmap --watch

--setup installs the git hook and MCP config. --watch is best during active coding.

If a file was especially helpful or misleading, reinforce that locally:

bash

sigmap learn --good src/auth/service.js
sigmap weights
