someone open sourced a tool that reads your entire codebase and explains it back to you.
→ you join a new team with 200,000 lines of code and zero documentation → one command scans every file, function, class, and dependency → builds an interactive visual dashboard you can explore → semantic search ask “which parts handle auth?” and it finds everything → shows ripple effects of your changes before you commit → auto-groups code by architectural layer API, Service, Data, UI → works with Claude Code, Codex, Copilot, Gemini CLI, and more → completely free and open source
onboarding a new codebase will never be the same.
