FAQPage Schema

How do I onboard to a new codebase quickly?▼

Onboarding to a new codebase quickly involves automating parallel exploration of architecture, data models, APIs, auth, and deployment to synthesize a comprehensive onboarding document for immediate review.

What is parallel codebase exploration?▼

Parallel codebase exploration is the process of simultaneously investigating architecture, data models, APIs, auth, and deployment details to consolidate findings into a single synthetic onboarding document.

How do I generate an onboarding document for project setup?▼

Generate an onboarding document for project setup by launching parallel agents that explore architecture and key considerations, automatically consolidating the findings into a detailed project overview.

Can I use parallel agents to explore project architecture and APIs?▼

Yes, you can use parallel agents to explore project architecture and APIs, as the automated onboarding process simultaneously investigates these areas alongside data models, auth, and deployment configurations.

Does automated codebase onboarding work without dependencies?▼

Automated codebase onboarding works without external dependencies, requiring only parallel agent execution and document synthesis to investigate the project architecture and generate the final onboarding document.

What are the limitations of automated codebase onboarding?▼

The primary limitation of automated codebase onboarding is its strict reliance on parallel agent execution and document synthesis to map architecture and APIs, meaning it cannot function without these internal mechanisms.
