Guides on auto-generated documentation, MCP tools for AI agents, git intelligence, and how repowise compares to other tools.
Declining code health is usually a slow-burn problem. Teams feel it as “everything takes longer” long before they see a hard failure. The trick is not…
Hidden coupling is the code you do not see in imports. Two files have no direct dependency on paper, yet they still move together every few weeks because…
Nested complexity is the metric people reach for when cyclomatic complexity stops telling the truth. Cyclomatic complexity counts decision paths. Nested…
Most teams do not have a refactoring problem. They have a refactoring priorities problem. There is always more code that could be cleaned up than time to…
Untested hotspots are the files most likely to break your product and the least likely to catch it in CI. The signal is simple: high churn, low or zero…
What is code health? It is the part of a codebase that tells you whether the system will stay easy to change next week, next month, and next quarter. Code…
Claude Code large codebase work fails for a simple reason: the model can only reason over what fits in its context window. A big repo does not fit. A good…
Cursor MCP works best when you stop treating it like a magic search box and start treating it like a source of structured codebase context. Cursor’s own docs…
A code health scorer works because one number is only useful if it is built from signals that map to real maintenance cost. A file can look clean and still…
A deterministic PR review bot can do useful review work without calling an LLM once. That sounds odd until you break “review” into smaller jobs: parse the…
Read an unfamiliar codebase fast by treating the first pass like an incident review, not a refactor: four lenses, an hourly workflow, and a repeatable audit memo.
A production incident creates one question fast: who changed this code? The answer is rarely “the last commit.” It is usually a chain of changes, ownership…
