Workflow Codebase Knowledge

Category: Content · Sub-category: content-misc · Last updated: 2026-05-21

type:audit type:review

Use to understand an unfamiliar codebase — presents architecture overview, module map, public API surfaces, and conventions as a layered mental model. Knowledge-presentation only: read-only sweep, no defect ranking, no reasoning chains. Distinct from workflow-codebase-audit (finding-oriented defect detection) and tech-writer / /swe-workbench:document (generates new prose artifacts). Ideal for onboarding, knowledge-handoff, and reviewer context-gathering.
