What Ix Impact does
name: ix-impact description: Change risk analysis — blast radius, affected systems, and what to test. Depth scales with risk level; low-risk targets stop early. argument-hint:
Check `command -v ix` first. If unavailable, use Grep to find all usages and estimate impact manually.
Pro check (optional)
Run once at the start:
ix briefing --format llm 2>&1
If it returns JSON with a `revision` field, Pro is available. Extract `openBugs` for use in Pro steps be
