What problem does it solve?
Solo builders stall on undocumented code because explaining modules manually pulls them out of the build loop.
Who is it for?
Indie developers documenting a codebase or unpacking unfamiliar files inside Claude Code or Cursor.
Skip if: Security audits, pentesting narratives, or teams forbidden from sending code snippets to remote APIs.
