FAQPage Schema
How do I generate an architecture summary from a source code repository?

An architecture summary systematically extracts components, dependencies, and interfaces from a repository, outputting a structured GENERATED_ARCHITECTURE.md file in the repository root. It provides traceable documentation for architecture reviews and security diagrams.

Can I automatically create security diagrams and dependency documentation from my codebase?

Yes, automatically generating security diagrams and dependency documentation involves analyzing repository contents to map potential risks and interfaces. This yields structured markdown tables for compliance and onboarding directly from your codebase.

What is the best way to document component dependencies and interfaces for a platform?

Documenting component dependencies and interfaces involves generating a comprehensive architecture summary with structured markdown tables. This approach maps repository contents to produce traceable documentation for platform components and architecture reviews.

Does generating an architecture summary require specific external dependencies or components?

No, generating an architecture summary requires no specific external dependencies or components. It directly analyzes the target platform component repository to produce the GENERATED_ARCHITECTURE.md file in the repository root.

When do I need to generate a structured architecture summary for a repository?

You need to generate a structured architecture summary when platform components require documentation for architecture reviews, audits, or onboarding. It produces traceable markdown tables mapping components, dependencies, interfaces, and security diagrams.
