How it works
Three steps to reliable reference coverage
- 01
Connect GitHub
Sign in with GitHub and select the repositories you want to document. - 02
AI Analyzes Code
Claude AI parses your codebase, understanding structure, patterns, and relationships. - 03
Docs Generated
Get first-pass pages instantly, then keep them updated automatically when you push code.
auth.ts:2-4
- 1
export async function verifySession(token: string) { - 2
const session = await db.sessions.findUnique({ - 3
where: { token, active: true }, - 4
}); - 5
if (!session) throw new AuthError('EXPIRED'); - 6
return session.user; - 7

Deep Code Understanding
Tree-sitter parsing combined with Claude analyzes structure, signatures, and relationships to produce accurate technical writeups. - 02
Multiple Doc Types
Generate README files, API references, function notes, architecture overviews, and getting-started guides from your code. - 03
Auto-Sync on Push
GitHub webhooks trigger updates when you push code, so content stays current without manual maintenance. - 04
AI Chat for Code Questions
Ask questions about your codebase in plain English. Get instant answers with references to the exact files and functions. - 05
Instant Generation
Connect a repository and get first-pass pages in minutes. No complex setup required. - 06
Context-Aware Writing
Output adapts to your codebase's patterns, naming conventions, and architecture for a consistent voice.

Review
Human Review Workflow
Strong teams treat generated output as a draft, not a final source of truth. The fastest workflow is to generate first-pass pages, run a quick reviewer pass, and then publish with source links so readers can validate details without context switching.
- 01
Draft First
Generate baseline coverage so reviewers spend time improving clarity, not writing from scratch. - 02
Review Fast
Validate examples, edge cases, and naming conventions before release cutoffs. - 03
Sync Continuously
Keep pages aligned with code changes so references stay useful during active development.
