Developer Documentation and Codebase Assistant
Index README files, API docs, architecture decisions, code, and runbooks. Preserve file path, symbol, language, repository commit, branch, and line ranges. Hybrid search helps with exact identifiers and semantic questions. Respect repository permissions and refresh on commits, renames, and deletions.
Implementation example
{
"repository":"bytes4dev",
"commit":"abc123",
"path":"src/auth/session.js",
"symbol":"verifySession",
"startLine":20,
"endLine":58
}💡 Commit and line metadata support reproducibility and source tracing.
Key Takeaways
- Inspect the relevant pipeline stage instead of guessing.
- Preserve source provenance, versions, and access scope.
- Measure quality on representative queries.
