SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

zoom-out helps you quickly overcome unfamiliarity with a code area by expanding your view to the right level of abstraction, so you can understand how parts fit together and where they are used.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • High-level code mapping: Produces a structured overview of relevant modules and callers instead of staying trapped in local details.
  • Domain-vocabulary grounded: Explains relationships using the project's domain glossary vocabulary to keep terminology consistent.
  • Best for unclear ownership and wiring: Use when you need to find how a subsystem connects to the rest of the project before making changes or writing new code.

Quick Start

Ask the agent to zoom out for the current code area and return a map of relevant modules and callers using the project's domain glossary vocabulary.

FAQPage Schema
How do I map module callers and integration points in an unfamiliar code area?

To map module callers in unfamiliar code, identify relevant modules and trace their callers to reveal architecture and integration points. This produces a structured abstraction-layer map using project domain glossary vocabulary for consistent terminology across the codebase.

What is the best way to get broader context for code comprehension before making changes?

Getting broader context for code comprehension means expanding your view to the right abstraction level to see how parts fit together. It yields a high-level overview of relevant modules and their callers, avoiding the trap of local implementation details.

When do I need dependency tracing and architecture mapping for a codebase?

You need dependency tracing and architecture mapping when facing unclear ownership or wiring in a subsystem. Use these techniques to discover how a code area connects to the rest of the project before making changes or writing new code.

How do I generate an abstraction-layer map using domain glossary vocabulary?

Generating an abstraction-layer map using domain glossary vocabulary requires identifying relevant modules and their callers, then explaining their relationships with the project's domain terminology. This maintains consistent terminology and clarifies high-level code architecture.

Does code context expansion work for finding routing and integration points?

Code context expansion works for finding routing and integration points by identifying relevant modules and their callers. It applies when you need higher-level context to understand how a subsystem connects to the rest of the project before modifications.

Can I trace module callers to understand unfamiliar code architecture?

You can trace module callers to understand unfamiliar code architecture by identifying relevant modules and mapping their dependencies. This approach expands your view to the right abstraction level, revealing how different parts fit together and where they are used.
