SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Understanding large codebases is time-consuming without structured insights. The codebase-explorer Skill provides semantic search and explicit relationship mapping to surface architecture and code relationships, accelerating comprehension for developers and maintainers.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Semantic search across code to locate relevant symbols, files, and definitions.
  • Relationship mapping to visualize calls, defines, and dependencies between components.
  • Onboarding and architectural assessment across large repositories; rapid context gathering for reviews.

Quick Start

Use the codebase-explorer skill to perform a semantic search across a repository, for example: codanna mcp semantic_search_with_context query:"database access pattern" limit:5

FAQPage Schema
How do I use semantic search to explore a large codebase?

Relationship mapping tracks how components define, call, and depend on each other across files and symbols, visualizing structural connections to help you assess code health and architectural decisions.

What is the best way to map dependencies between symbols in a repository?

Relationship mapping tracks how components define, call, and depend on each other across files and symbols, visualizing structural connections to help you assess code health and architectural decisions.

Can I use semantic code search for onboarding new developers?

Yes, you can perform a semantic search by providing a natural language query and a limit, such as searching for a database access pattern to retrieve the top matching code contexts.

How do I run a semantic search query across code files?

Yes, you can perform a semantic search by providing a natural language query and a limit, such as searching for a database access pattern to retrieve the top matching code contexts.

Do I need local tooling to extract code relationships and map file connections?

Yes, repository exploration requires a local environment with tooling configured to run semantic searches, extract relationships, and map connections across code, symbols, and dependencies.
