The problem
Senior engineers answer the same questions all day, new joiners take weeks to find runbooks, and nobody knows which docs are stale.
What it does
Searches docs, runbooks, postmortems, decision records, code, tickets and commit messages
Every answer with file and line, last change, author and CODEOWNERS owner
Warns when the best answer hasn't been touched in a year
"Who owns billing?" answered from CODEOWNERS
Code-aware: rotateDbPassword matches "rotate the DB password"
Gaps report: the questions nobody could answer
Secret files skipped and secret values masked before indexing
Optional Claude answer that cites its sources

- Ask in the terminal or the browser
- Fix the gaps and stale docs it reports
Works with
Your data
