Error Codes

Source Directories

Search these locations in order:

1. Source/S2/Public/**/*.h
2. Source/S2/Private/**/*.h
3. Plugins/Sipher*/Source/*/Public/**/*.h
4. Plugins/Sipher*/Source/*/Private/**/*.h
5. Plugins/Frameworks/*/Source/*/Public/**/*.h
6. Plugins/Frameworks/*/Source/*/Private/**/*.h

Execution Steps

Step 1: Build Type List

From metadata, collect all types to resolve:

types_to_resolve = set()

# Add base class
types_to_resolve.add(metadata.baseClass)

# Add all referenced types
for type_name in metadata.referencedTypes:
    types_to_resolve.add(type_name)

# Clean type names (remove prefixes/suffixes)
# "SKEL_USipherGameplayAbility_C" -> "USipherGameplayAbility"

Step 2: Resolve Include Paths (Parallel)

For each type, search for its header:

# Search pattern for class declaration
grep -r "class\s+\w*_API\s+{ClassName}\s*:" Source/S2/Public --include="*.h" -l
grep -r "class\s+{ClassName}\s*:" Source/S2/Public --include="*.h" -l

# Search pattern for struct declaration
grep -r "struct\s+\w*_API\s+{ClassName}" Source/S2/Public --include="*.h" -l
grep -r "struct\s+{ClassName}" Source/S2/Public --include="*.h" -l

# Also search plugins
grep -r "class.*{ClassName}" Plugins/Sipher*/Source/*/Public --include="*.h" -l
grep -r "class.*{ClassName}" Plugins/Frameworks/*/Source/*/Public --include="*.h" -l

Build include map:

include_map = {}

for type_name in types_to_resolve:
    header_path = find_header(type_name)
    if header_path:
        # Convert absolute path to relative include path
        # {project.root}/Source/S2/Public/Core/ASC/SipherASC.h -> Core/ASC/SipherASC.h
        relative_path = make_relative(header_path, "Source/S2/Public/")
        include_map[type_name] = relative_path
    else:
        # Mark as not found
        include_map[type_name] = None

Step 3: Extract Base Class Signatures

Read the base class header and extract virtual methods:

# Find base class header
BASE_HEADER=$(grep -r "class.*{BaseClassName}.*:" Source/S2/Public Plugins/Sipher*/Source/*/Public Plugins/Frameworks/*/Source/*/Public --include="*.h" -l | head -1)

Parse header for virtual methods:

# Read header content
header_content = read_file(base_header_path)

# Extract virtual method declarations
# Pattern: virtual {return_type} {method_name}({params}) [const] [override] [= 0];
virtual_pattern = r'virtual\s+(\w+[\w\s\*\&<>,]*)\s+(\w+)\s*\(([^)]*)\)\s*(const)?\s*(override)?\s*(=\s*0)?'

virtual_methods = []
for match in re.finditer(virtual_pattern, header_content):
    return_type = match.group(1).strip()
    method_name = match.group(2)
    params = match.group(3)
    is_const = bool(match.group(4))

    virtual_methods.append({
        "name": method_name,
        "signature": match.group(0).rstrip(';'),
        "returnType": return_type,
        "isConst": is_const
    })

Extract member variables (to detect shadowing):

# Pattern: UPROPERTY(...) {type} {name};
# or plain: {type} {name};
member_pattern = r'(?:UPROPERTY[^)]*\))?\s*(\w+[\w\s\*\&<>,]*)\s+(\w+)\s*[;=]'

member_variables = []
for match in re.finditer(member_pattern, header_content):
    var_name = match.group(2)
    if var_name not in ['GENERATED_BODY', 'public', 'private', 'protected']:
        member_variables.append(var_name)

Step 4: Detect API Patterns

Check for known UE5.7 patterns in the codebase:

# Check UAITask_MoveTo delegate pattern
grep -r "OnMoveTaskFinished" Plugins/Frameworks/SipherAIScalableFramework --include="*.h" --include="*.cpp" | head -3
grep -r "OnMoveFinished" Plugins/Frameworks/SipherAIScalableFramework --include="*.h" --include="*.cpp" | head -3

# Check AbilityTask_WaitDelay usage
grep -r "UAbilityTask_WaitDelay" Source/S2 Plugins/Sipher* --include="*.cpp" | head -3

# Check TSoftObjectPtr loading pattern
grep -r "\.LoadSynchronous()" Source/S2 Plugins/Sipher* --include="*.cpp" | head -3

# Check attribute getter pattern
grep -r "GetCharacterAttributeValue" Source/S2/Public/BFL --include="*.h" -A2 | head -5

Build API patterns based on findings:

api_patterns = {}

if found_OnMoveTaskFinished and not_found_OnMoveFinished_public:
    api_patterns["UAITask_MoveTo"] = "Use OnMoveTaskFinished.AddUObject (public), NOT OnMoveFinished.AddDynamic (protected)"

if found_UAbilityTask_WaitDelay:
    api_patterns["AbilityWaitDelay"] = "Use UAbilityTask_WaitDelay::WaitDelay, NOT UGameplayTask_WaitDelay"

# Always include these known patterns
api_patterns["TSoftObjectPtr"] = "Call .LoadSynchronous() when assigning to raw pointer"
api_patterns["K2Functions"] = "Use native functions (SetActorLocation), NOT K2_ wrappers (K2_SetActorLocation)"

Step 5: Identify Potential Conflicts

Compare member variables with common local variable names:

potential_conflicts = []

common_local_names = ["AnimationData", "AbilityData", "CombatData", "CharacterData", "TargetData"]

for member in member_variables:
    if member in common_local_names:
        potential_conflicts.append(member)

Step 6: Return Context

{
  "success": true,
  "includeMap": { ... },
  "baseClassContext": {
    "className": "USipherGameplayAbilityRuntime",
    "headerPath": "GameplayAbilities/SipherGameplayAbilityRuntime.h",
    "fullHeaderPath": "{project.root}/Source/S2/Public/GameplayAbilities/SipherGameplayAbilityRuntime.h",
    "virtualMethods": [ ... ],
    "memberVariables": ["AnimationData", "AbilityData"]
  },
  "apiPatterns": { ... },
  "namingConventions": {
    "actorPrefix": "ASipher",
    "componentPrefix": "USipher",
    "structPrefix": "FSipher",
    "enumPrefix": "ESipher"
  },
  "potentialConflicts": ["AnimationData"]
}

Handling Missing Types

If a type cannot be found in project source:

1. Check Engine source (if available)
2. Mark as external in include map with module hint
3. Add to warnings for orchestrator

{
  "includeMap": {
    "UGameplayAbility": {
      "external": true,
      "module": "GameplayAbilities",
      "include": "Abilities/GameplayAbility.h"
    }
  }
}
