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.
