SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

When exploring a codebase, unfamiliar areas lack context. Zoom-out provides a higher-level map of the area to surface architecture, callers, and integration points.

Core Features & Use Cases

Create a map of a module's callers and collaborators.
Identify entry points and peer modules to understand integration points.
Provide orientation for onboarding or architecture reviews.

Quick Start

Describe the code area at a higher abstraction level by mapping its callers, collaborators, and entry points.

FAQPage Schema

How do I map code architecture to understand a module's callers and collaborators?▼

Mapping code architecture involves targeting a module or symbol to reveal its callers, collaborators, and entry points using read-only tooling, resulting in a hierarchical map that provides orientation for onboarding or reviews.

What is the best way to identify entry points and peer modules during codebase onboarding?▼

The best way to identify entry points during onboarding is to map the code target's architecture, which surfaces peer modules and integration points to provide a higher-level view of unfamiliar areas.

Can I analyze code dependencies and integration points without modifying the repository?▼

Yes, you can analyze dependencies without modifying the repository because the architecture mapping uses strictly read-only tools like Read, Grep, and Glob to enumerate relationships and output a hierarchical map.

Does mapping a package's architecture work for both high-level reviews and specific symbol analysis?▼

Yes, architecture mapping works for both high-level reviews and specific symbol analysis because the process applies to modules, packages, or symbols within a repository to reveal callers and collaborators at any abstraction level.

When should I use a code architecture map instead of reading individual files?▼

Use a code architecture map instead of reading individual files when exploring unfamiliar areas that lack context, as it surfaces higher-level architecture, callers, and integration points needed for onboarding or architecture reviews.
