Why it matters

Understand your codebase by asking questions and receiving answers grounded solely in your source code. This skill helps developers quickly grasp the functionality and location of code elements.

Outcomes

Search codebase for relevant files and extract evidence.

03

Synthesize answers with inline citations and key file mappings.

04

Identify insufficient information and suggest next steps.

Overview

Wiki Q&A

Answers repository questions grounded entirely in source-code evidence, citing files inline and including a Key Files table, never inventing or guessing. Use it when a user asks a question about a codebase or wants to understand a specific file, function, or component.

What it does

Answers repository questions grounded entirely in source-code evidence: detects the question's language and responds in kind, searches the codebase for relevant files, reads them to gather evidence, and synthesizes an answer with inline citations. Responses use ## headings, language-tagged code blocks, tables, and bullet lists, cite sources inline as (src/path/file.ts:42), and include a "Key Files" table mapping files to their roles. If the available information is insufficient, it says so and suggests files to examine rather than guessing.

When to use - and when NOT to

Use it when a user asks a question about a codebase, wants to understand a specific file, function, or component, or asks "how does X work" or "where is Y defined."

Inputs and outputs

Input: a natural-language question about a repository. Output: a cited, evidence-grounded answer with a "Key Files" table, using only information found in the actual source files - never invented, guessed, or drawn from external knowledge.

Who it's for

Developers who want a codebase question answered with verifiable file-and-line citations rather than a plausible-sounding guess.
