Repowise
Repowise is a codebase index that lets coding agents answer questions about code, callers, risk and tests without re-reading every file.
What it is good for
- Reducing how many files a coding agent opens for each task
- Finding what breaks before changing a function
- Tracking dead code and files that need fixing first
- Generating docs for a codebase from its structure
