Also build a file co-change graph (Jaccard similarity on shared commits) to cluster files by how they move together while ignoring large, noisy commits.\n\n## Requirements\n\n- Python 3\n- `networkx` (required; community detection is enabled by default)\n\nInstall with:\n\n```bash\npip install networkx\n```\n\n## Workflow\n\n1. Scope the repo and time window (optional `--since/--until`).\n2. Decide sensitivity rules (use defaults or provide a CSV config).\n3. Build the ownership map with `scripts/run_ownership_map.py` (co-change graph is on by default; use `--cochange-max-files` to ignore supernode commits).\n4. Communities are computed by default; graphml output is optional (`--graphml`).\n5. Query the outputs with `scripts/query_ownership.py` for bounded JSON slices.\n6. Persist and visualize (see `references/neo4j-import.md`).\n\nBy default, the co-change graph ignores common “glue” files (lockfiles, `.github/*`, editor config) so clusters reflect actual code movement instead of shared infra edits. Override with `--cochange-exclude` or `--no-default-cochange-excludes`. Dependabot commits are excluded by default; override with `--no-default-author-excludes` or add patterns via `--author-exclude-regex`.\n\nIf you want to exclude Linux build glue like `Kbuild` from co-change clustering, pass:\n\n```bash\npython skills/skills/security-ownership-map/scripts/run_ownership_map.py \\\n  --repo /path/to/linux \\\n  --out ownership-map-out \\\n  --cochange-exclude \"**/Kbuild\"\n```\n\n## Quick start\n\nRun from the repo root:\n\n```bash\npython skills/skills/security-ownership-map/scripts/run_ownership_map.py \\\n  --repo . \\\n  --out ownership-map-out \\\n  --since \"12 months ago\" \\\n  --emit-commits\n```\n\nDefaults: author identity, author date, and merge commits excluded. Use `--identity committer`, `--date-field committer`, or `--include-merges` if needed.\n\nExample (override co-change excludes):\n\n```bash\npython skills/skills/security-ownership-map/scripts/run_ownership_map.py \\\n  --repo . \\\n  --out ownership-map-out \\\n  --cochange-exclude \"**/Cargo.lock\" \\\n  --cochange-exclude \"**/.github/**\" \\\n  --no-default-cochange-excludes\n```\n\nCommunities are computed by default. To disable:\n\n```bash\npython skills/skills/security-ownership-map/scripts/run_ownership_map.py \\\n  --repo . \\\n  --out ownership-map-out \\\n  --no-communities\n```\n\n## Sensitivity rules\n\nBy default, the script flags common auth/crypto/secret paths. Override by providing a CSV file:\n\n```\n# pattern,tag,weight\n**/auth/**,auth,1.0\n**/crypto/**,crypto,1.0\n**/*.pem,secrets,1.0\n```\n\nUse it with `--sensitive-config path/to/sensitive.csv`.\n\n## Output artifacts\n\n`ownership-map-out/` contains:\n\n- `people.csv` (nodes: people)\n- `files.csv` (nodes: files)\n- `edges.csv` (edges: touches)\n- `cochange_edges.csv` (file-to-file co-change edges with Jaccard weight; omitted with `--no-cochange`)\n- `summary.json` (security ownership findings)\n- `commits.jsonl` (optional, if `--emit-commits`)\n- `communities.json` (computed by default from co-change edges when available; includes `maintainers` per community; disable with `--no-communities`)\n- `cochange.graph.json` (NetworkX node-link JSON with `community_id` + `community_maintainers`; falls back to `ownership.graph.json` if no co-change edges)\n- `ownership.graphml` / `cochange.graphml` (optional, if `--graphml`)\n\n`people.csv` includes timezone detection based on author commit offsets: `primary_tz_offset`, `primary_tz_minutes`, and `timezone_offsets`.\n\n## LLM query helper\n\nUse `scripts/query_ownership.py` to return small, JSON-bounded slices without loading the full graph into context.\n\nExamples:\n\n```bash\npython skills/skills/security-ownership-map/scripts/query_ownership.py --data-dir ownership-map-out people --limit 10\npython skills/skills/security-ownership-map/scripts/query_ownership.py --data-dir ownership-map-out files --tag auth --bus-factor-max 1\npython skills/skills/security-ownership-map/scripts/query_ownership.py --data-dir ownership-map-out person --person alice@corp --limit 10\npython skills/skills/security-ownership-map/scripts/query_ownership.py --data-dir ownership-map-out file --file crypto/tls\npython skills/skills/security-ownership-map/scripts/query_ownership.py --data-dir ownership-map-out cochange --file crypto/tls --limit 10\npython skills/skills/security-ownership-map/scripts/query_ownership.py --data-dir ownership-map-out summary --section orphaned_sensitive_code\npython skills/skills/security-ownership-map/scripts/query_ownership.py --data-dir ownership-map-out community --id 3\n```\n\nUse `--community-top-owners 5` (default) to control how many maintainers are stored per community.\n\n## Basic security queries\n\nRun these to answer common security ownership questions with bounded output:\n\n```bash\n# Orphaned sensitive code (stale + low bus factor)\npython skills/skills/security-ownership-map/scripts/query_ownership.py --data-dir ownership-map-out summary --section orphaned_sensitive_code\n\n# Hidden owners for sensitive tags\npython skills/skills/security-ownership-map/scripts/query_ownership.py --data-dir ownership-map-out summary --section hidden_owners\n\n# Sensitive hotspots with low bus factor\npython skills/skills/security-ownership-map/scripts/query_ownership.py --data-dir ownership-map-out summary --section bus_factor_hotspots\n\n# Auth/crypto files with bus factor <= 1\npython skills/skills/security-ownership-map/scripts/query_ownership.py --data-dir ownership-map-out files --tag auth --bus-factor-max 1\npython skills/skills/security-ownership-map/scripts/query_ownership.py --data-dir ownership-map-out files --tag crypto --bus-factor-max 1\n\n# Who is touching sensitive code the most\npython skills/skills/security-ownership-map/scripts/query_ownership.py --data-dir ownership-map-out people --sort sensitive_touches --limit 10\n\n# Co-change neighbors (cluster hints for ownership drift)\npython skills/skills/security-ownership-map/scripts/query_ownership.py --data-dir ownership-map-out cochange --file path/to/file --min-jaccard 0.05 --limit 20\n\n# Community maintainers (for a cluster)\npython skills/skills/security-ownership-map/scripts/query_ownership.py --data-dir ownership-map-out community --id 3\n\n# Monthly maintainers for the community containing a file\npython skills/skills/security-ownership-map/scripts/community_maintainers.py \\\n  --data-dir ownership-map-out \\\n  --file network/card.c \\\n  --since 2025-01-01 \\\n  --top 5\n\n# Quarterly buckets instead of monthly\npython skills/skills/security-ownership-map/scripts/community_maintainers.py \\\n  --data-dir ownership-map-out \\\n  --file network/card.c \\\n  --since 2025-01-01 \\\n  --bucket quarter \\\n  --top 5\n```\n\nNotes:\n- Touches default to one authored commit (not per-file). Use `--touch-mode file` to count per-file touches.\n- Use `--window-days 90` or `--weight recency --half-life-days 180` to smooth churn.\n- Filter bots with `--ignore-author-regex '(bot|dependabot)'`.\n- Use `--min-share 0.1` to show stable maintainers only.\n- Use `--bucket quarter` for calendar quarter groupings.\n- Use `--identity committer` or `--date-field committer` to switch from author attribution.\n- Use `--include-merges` to include merge commits (excluded by default).\n\n### Summary format (default)\n\nUse this structure, add fields if needed:\n\n```json\n{\n  \"orphaned_sensitive_code\": [\n    {\n      \"path\": \"crypto/tls/handshake.rs\",\n      \"last_security_touch\": \"2023-03-12T18:10:04+00:00\",\n      \"bus_factor\": 1\n    }\n  ],\n  \"hidden_owners\": [\n    {\n      \"person\": \"alice@corp\",\n      \"controls\": \"63% of auth code\"\n    }\n  ]\n}\n```\n\n## Graph persistence\n\nUse `references/neo4j-import.md` when you need to load the CSVs into Neo4j. It includes constraints, import Cypher, and visualization tips.\n\n## Notes\n\n- `bus_factor_hotspots` in `summary.json` lists sensitive files with low bus factor; `orphaned_sensitive_code` is the stale subset.\n- If `git log` is too large, narrow with `--since` or `--until`.\n- Compare `summary.json` against CODEOWNERS to highlight ownership drift.\n\n## Other files in this skill\n\n- [LICENSE.txt](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openai/skills/HEAD/skills/.curated/security-ownership-map/LICENSE.txt)\n- [agents/openai.yaml](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openai/skills/HEAD/skills/.curated/security-ownership-map/agents/openai.yaml)\n- [references/neo4j-import.md](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openai/skills/HEAD/skills/.curated/security-ownership-map/references/neo4j-import.md)\n- [scripts/build_ownership_map.py](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openai/skills/HEAD/skills/.curated/security-ownership-map/scripts/build_ownership_map.py)\n- [scripts/community_maintainers.py](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openai/skills/HEAD/skills/.curated/security-ownership-map/scripts/community_maintainers.py)\n- [scripts/query_ownership.py](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openai/skills/HEAD/skills/.curated/security-ownership-map/scripts/query_ownership.py)\n- [scripts/run_ownership_map.py](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openai/skills/HEAD/skills/.curated/security-ownership-map/scripts/run_ownership_map.py)\n\n## references/neo4j-import.md (verbatim)\n\n# Neo4j Import Notes\n\nUse these steps when persisting the ownership graph to Neo4j.\n\n## Quick import (LOAD CSV)\n\n1.
