Buzz
The language magusfiles are written in (the .buzz engine). Buzz in full.
Volatility
A target that fails once and passes on rerun is volatile, as opposed to a regression that started failing and stays failing. magus keeps per-target pass/fail history and a Wilson-score volatility rate to tell them apart and auto-retry the noise. Volatility in full.
Knowledge graph
The queryable graph of a workspace's spells, targets, docs, and code relationships; query it with magus query/explain/path. Knowledge graph in full.
MAGUS.md
The committed routing index at a workspace root, regenerated from the knowledge graph: it lists every node and points at the exact query for a given question, so it is the entry point an agent reads first. MAGUS.md in full.
Insight
The reports magus derives over the graph and history (hotspots, affinity, ownership, trend, volatility, unreferenced). Insight in full.
Hotspot
An insight lens: edit frequency times complexity, the prime refactoring targets. The project view heat-colors the dependency graph by churn; --files ranks individual files. Hotspot in full.
Affinity
An insight lens: projects that change together (temporal coupling). A pair that co-changes without either declaring a dependency on the other is a candidate architectural smell. Affinity in full.
Ownership
An insight lens for author concentration: the primary author and their share, the distinct-author count (the bus factor), and abandonment. Ownership in full.
Trend
An insight lens: the recent half of the window against the earlier half. A positive delta is a rising hotspot; a negative one is cooling. Trend in full.
