Enter an unfamiliar project through a concrete task
Instead of summarizing the entire repository, trace a request or a proposed change. CodeGryphon helps connect documentation to the actual implementation.
Example: understand an unfamiliar billing service
A new teammate needs to change pricing logic in a service with a long history.
- Locate entry points, calculation rules and external dependencies.
- Trace one payment flow in code without making a real payment.
- Map the modules and list questions for the system owner.
What you get
A code guide with file references and a clear starting point for the change.
Begin with a question
Choose a user flow, entry point or requirement. Connect code, run instructions and available architecture documents.
Build a map with evidence
Identify related modules, key functions and data flows with file references. Ask for unknowns and discrepancies between documentation and implementation.
Validate understanding through a change
Pick a small area, agree on a plan and define acceptance criteria. After verification, update shared project knowledge so the next contributor can get started more easily.
