Individual skill
bom-explore
Explores and triages a CycloneDX BOM interactively with the cdxi REPL, using built-in commands for dependency trees, licenses, services, cryptographic assets, audit findings, evidence occurrences and callstacks, unpackaged container binaries, HBOM and OBOM categories, and Golem or Cargo hotspots. Use when asked to inspect, query, summarize, or triage an existing BOM, find what is inside an SBOM, or answer ad hoc questions about BOM contents without writing scripts.

# Explore a BOM interactively
`cdxi` is a REPL for querying a BOM without writing one-off `jq` pipelines. Use
it for ad hoc investigation and triage.
```bash
cdxi
cdxi /absolute/path/to/bom.json
cdxi /absolute/path/to/bom.evinse.json
```
If `bom.json` exists in the working directory, `cdxi` imports it automatically.
