Scan the configured ROS 2 workspace for packages and basic package.xml metadata. This read-only tool does not build, run, or modify the workspace, and it does not perform full dependency, launch, interface, or robot-description analysis.

Statically inspect one package selected by package_name or workspace-relative path. Returns detailed manifest, build, executable, and file metadata without importing, building, running, or modifying package code.

Parse package.xml dependency declarations and build a deterministic workspace graph. With no selector it analyzes the workspace; with package_name or relative_path it analyzes that package scope. It does not run rosdep, query the network, or install anything.

Statically parse .msg, .srv, and .action files in one package selected by name or relative path, optionally filtering by interface_name. It validates local syntax and classifies type references without ROS generators, imports, builds, or file changes.

Statically analyze one workspace-relative Python, XML, or YAML ROS 2 launch file. Returns declared nodes, includes, arguments, environment changes, and processes; Python uses AST and YAML uses safe loading. It never executes launch actions or commands.

Statically inspect one workspace-relative URDF or Xacro file. URDF returns links, joints, kinematic validation, and mesh references; Xacro returns an explicitly unexpanded macro/property/include summary. It never runs xacro or ROS.

Run a bounded, read-only diagnosis of the configured workspace by reusing package, dependency, interface, launch, and robot-description analyzers. Returns compact severity summaries and deduplicated issues; it does not build, execute, or modify files.
