codebase-pattern-finder

To find code patterns and usage examples across your codebase, scan your source files to surface API usage, structural patterns, and testing conventions. The tool collects file paths and line references to present concrete pattern instances with their context.

Documenting existing code conventions involves cataloging structural patterns and usage examples without editorial critique. This approach locates comparable implementations and extracts reusable patterns, showing code structure alongside file:line references to help developers understand and reuse proven approaches.

Yes, you can search for codebase patterns across varying languages. The pattern finder applies to codebases of varying sizes to surface API usage and structural patterns, identifying where patterns are employed across different modules and projects regardless of language.

To locate comparable implementations and reusable code structures, run a scan against your repository. This surfaces existing patterns with concrete file:line references, presenting actual pattern instances and variations to show where patterns are employed across modules.

No, cataloging codebase patterns requires no external dependencies. The tool operates directly on your source files to collect file paths and line references, extracting pattern usage context and presenting concrete examples without needing additional setup.

You should not use a pattern finder if you need editorial critique or refactoring of your source code. The tool strictly catalogs existing patterns and concrete examples to help locate and understand proven approaches, rather than evaluating or modifying the codebase.
