Launches a local web dashboard that visualizes your codebase's knowledge graph.

What it does

This skill starts the Understand Anything dashboard so you can explore a project's knowledge graph in the browser.

  • Resolves the project directory (argument or current folder) and picks the .understand-anything/ or .ua/ data folder.
  • Verifies knowledge-graph.json exists and tells you to run /understand first if it doesn't.
  • Searches multiple install roots (Claude Code plugin root, ~/.understand-anything-plugin, Codex, OpenCode, Copilot, plain clone) to locate the dashboard package.
  • Fast path: runs a version-pinned, self-contained viewer tarball from GitHub Releases via npx — no install or build. Falls back to pnpm install plus a Vite dev server.
  • Extracts and shares the tokenized ?token= URL so you aren't blocked by the access gate.

Who it's for

  • Developers already using the Understand Anything plugin who want a visual view of the analysis.
  • Teams onboarding onto large or legacy codebases and needing a dependency map.
  • Tech leads who want a shareable structural overview during code walkthroughs.

Examples

  1. Run /understand in the current repo, then /understand-dashboard to open the graph in your browser.
  2. Point at another project: /understand-dashboard ~/work/legacy-api to inspect only that codebase's graph.
  3. During onboarding, keep the dashboard running in the background while you walk a new hire through core modules and service call paths.

Install in Claude Code

Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code

Install the skill I found on Claude Skill Mart.
Copy the understand-anything-plugin/skills/understand-dashboard folder from the GitHub repo Egonex-AI/Understand-Anything into my ~/.claude/skills/understand-dashboard/.
When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.

Install with a command instead

git clone https://github.com/Egonex-AI/Understand-Anything.git ~/understand-anything && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r ~/understand-anything/understand-anything-plugin/skills/understand-dashboard ~/.claude/skills/

⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.

  1. Make sure Node.js (18+ recommended), pnpm, and git are installed.
  2. Clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/Egonex-AI/Understand-Anything.git ~/understand-anything
  3. Copy the skill into your skills folder: mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r ~/understand-anything/understand-anything-plugin/skills/understand-dashboard ~/.claude/skills/
  4. Create the symlink the skill looks for: ln -s ~/understand-anything/understand-anything-plugin ~/.understand-anything-plugin
  5. Restart Claude Code, then run /understand inside the project you want to inspect so a knowledge graph is generated.
  6. Run /understand-dashboard (optionally with a project path) and open the printed URL that includes ?token=.
  7. If port 5173 is busy, the next free port is used automatically — always use the exact URL that was reported.
