FAQPage Schema
How do I visualize codebase architecture and map dependencies?

To visualize codebase architecture, this skill scans project files to build an interactive knowledge graph mapping components and dependencies. It identifies logical layers and how different parts of the system interact for architectural insights.

What is the best way to onboard new developers to an unfamiliar codebase?

The best way to onboard developers is generating guided tours that create step-by-step learning paths. This skill automatically maps architecture and relationships to help new team members explore specific features.

Does this codebase visualization tool support multiple programming languages?

Yes, this codebase visualization tool supports incremental updates and full project scans across multiple programming languages and frameworks. It automatically assigns logical layers and maps dependencies regardless of language.

Can I identify technical debt using a knowledge graph of my project?

Yes, you can identify technical debt by analyzing the generated knowledge graph to map dependencies and architectural layers. This skill highlights structural relationships and potential issues across your codebase.

How do I generate an interactive dependency graph for my current project?

Run this skill on your current directory to generate a dependency graph and launch an interactive dashboard. It scans your codebase structure to produce nodes and edges representing code, config, and infrastructure.

When do I need an architectural knowledge graph for my codebase?

You need an architectural knowledge graph when navigating complex, unfamiliar codebases becomes difficult. This approach maps architecture, components, and their relationships to solve onboarding challenges and identify technical debt.
