instructions: `# Supermodel: Codebase Intelligence
Two tools for instant codebase understanding. Pre-computed graphs enable sub-second responses.
## Recommended workflow
1. \`overview\` first to learn architecture and key symbols (1 call)
2. \`symbol_context\` on 1-2 symbols from the issue to see source, callers, callees (1-2 calls)
3. Stop calling MCP tools. Use the results to make your fix.
## Anti-patterns
- >3 MCP calls total = diminishing returns. Aim for 1 overview + 1-2 symbol lookups.
- Chasing callers-of-callers burns iterations without helping.
## After fixing
Run the project's existing test suite (e.g. pytest). Do NOT write standalone test scripts.
## Tool reference
- \`overview\`: Architecture map, domains, hub functions, file counts. Zero-arg, sub-second.
- \`symbol_context\`: Source, callers, callees, domain for any function/class/method. Supports "Class.method" and partial matching.`,
