A powerful tool for retrieving rich, contextual information about specific software development entities, providing formatted details based on entity type. When to use this tool: - Retrieving detailed information about a specific project, component, feature, or other development entity - Exploring relationships between software development entities - Examining project status, components, features, tasks, and issues - Understanding the structure and elements of a software component - Reviewing milestone progress and completion metrics - Examining task details, dependencies, and task sequencing - Exploring feature implementations and technical requirements - Analyzing the project knowledge graph to understand entity relationships - Preparing for work on a specific entity by establishing context Key features: - Provides contextually rich, formatted information about software development entities - Adapts output format based on entity type (project, component, feature, task, etc.) - Presents both direct entity information and related elements - Organizes information in a clear, hierarchical structure - Automatically identifies entity relationships and presents them systematically Parameters explained: - entityName: Required - The name of the entity to retrieve context for * Example: "AuthService", "UserProfile", "LoginFeature" - entityType: Optional - The type of entity being retrieved * Default: "project" * Accepted values: "project", "component", "task", "issue", "milestone", "decision", "feature", "technology", "documentation", "dependency", "developer" * Helps the system format the output appropriately - sessionId: Optional - The current session identifier * Typically provided by startsession * Used for tracking entity views within the session Each entity type returns specialized context information: - Project: Shows status, components, active features, active tasks, active issues, upcoming milestones, team members, recent decisions, and task sequencing information - Component: Displays parent projects, implemented features, technologies used, active issues, documentation, and dependencies - Feature: Shows status, priority, description, requirements, implementing components, and related tasks - Task: Displays project, status, priority, description, related issues, blocking items, preceding tasks, and following tasks - Milestone: Shows status, progress percentage, and tasks grouped by completion status (complete, active, inactive) - Other Entity Types: Shows observations and both incoming and outgoing relationships within the knowledge graph You should: - Specify the exact entity name for accurate retrieval - Provide the entity type when possible for optimally formatted results - Start with project entities to get a high-level overview - Explore components to understand technical architecture - Examine features to see functional requirements and implementations - Review tasks to understand specific work items and their status - Analyze task sequencing to understand dependencies and workflow - Use status information to focus on active or incomplete work - Consider priority information when planning next steps - Use milestone context to track progress toward completion - After retrieving context, follow up on specific entities of interest - Use in conjunction with startsession to maintain session tracking - Remember that this tool only retrieves existing information; use buildcontext to add new entities
