Could you build this?
Partial Creating a web interface to inspect codebase documentation is straightforward, but parsing multi-language ASTs, mapping deep architectural dependencies, and structuring full-codebase context for LLMs reliably is technically challenging.
What it would actually take: Requires an indexing pipeline using tree-sitter or LSP engines across dozens of languages to build a semantic and topological code graph. The difficult engineering challenges are incremental graph updates across large monorepos, low-latency graph retrieval, and synthesizing accurate architectural summaries without hallucinating. This necessitates expertise in compiler frontend tooling, graph databases, and retrieval architectures.
