SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

When exploring unfamiliar code, it provides a higher-level view by identifying relevant modules and their callers, helping you understand how the pieces fit together.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Generates a map of core modules and their call relationships.
  • Supports domain glossary terminology to improve communication with the team.
  • Use Case: when you enter a new code area, request a top-level map to see module boundaries and key collaborators.

Quick Start

Ask the agent to map all relevant modules and callers for the current code area.

FAQPage Schema
How do I get a high-level map of an unfamiliar codebase?

A codebase map provides a higher-level view by identifying core modules and their call relationships. It generates an abstract map of dependencies and key relationships across layers to show how components fit together.

What is the best way to understand module boundaries in a new code area?

Understanding module boundaries requires mapping the most relevant modules and their callers. This provides a top-level view of the codebase to reveal key collaborators and structural limits across domains.

Can I use domain glossary terminology to map codebase dependencies?

Yes, you can use domain glossary terminology to map codebase dependencies. This applies domain-specific vocabulary to the abstract map of modules and relationships, improving communication with your team.

How do I map callers and modules across different domains and layers?

To map callers and modules across domains and layers, you generate an abstract dependency map highlighting key relationships. This higher-level view exposes how separate components fit together within the codebase.

When do I need to generate an abstract map of codebase dependencies?

You need to generate an abstract map of codebase dependencies when exploring unfamiliar code areas. It is specifically applied when you need to understand how components fit together across layers and domains.
