CXGRD CLI maps code dependencies to support safer AI-assisted changes

Summary

CXGRD is a TypeScript CLI for giving AI assistants architectural context about a codebase before they make changes. It scans a project and builds a dependency graph that the tool uses to analyze the blast radius of a proposed change. The `cxgrd prompt` command sends a subgraph to an LLM and returns an enriched prompt, while `cxgrd input` records change-related information in project history. Users can run `cxgrd check` to validate results using the graph and compiler output; the tool also supports circular-dependency checks and orphan detection. CXGRD can enforce merge policies through GitHub Actions, monitor dependency changes in real time, and install pre-commit checks. The documented workflow is to install the CLI, scan a project, assess a proposed change, generate a prompt, and validate the result. Authentication is required for Pro, Team, and Enterprise plans; `cxgrd doctor` checks toolchain readiness before strict checks.
