## Post #1 by @pablo

Is there a way to display archetype dependencies in the CKM?

Like, if I'm on archetype A, which archetypes are used from A and which archetypes use A.

When I say "use", it would be:

1. any specializations/generalizations
2. there is a slot somewhere that matches the archetype ID (I know for the .* archetype slots, any archetype of the SLOT rm_type will match, but there are also more explicit slots)

Thanks!

Ping @sebastian.garde

See Related resources in CKM e.g.

Fixed explicit slots are very rare in CKM archetypes - examples are in

Thank you @ian.mcnicoll  (I have no idea why I did not get notified of either of the first two messages despite watching every post in this category and @pablo even pinging me explicitly...)
