Code-to-Spec

The Code-to-Spec functionality helps you modernize your older applications and codebases by importing an existing GitHub repository and converting it to a PRD.

The functionality is especially useful for understanding and updating codebases that are outdated, difficult to interpret, or written in older languages like COBOL. It helps teams efficiently analyze and modernize their code, streamlining upgrades, language conversions, and maintenance.

After importing the repository, the platform provides detailed insights into the code's structure, functionality, and key components.

During the process, the platform performs the following tasks:

• Clones the repository remotely.

• Chunks the codebase into manageable pieces.

• Interprets the structure and purpose of the files and folders.

• Summarizes each file (in parallel).

• Compiles the summaries into a final summary.

The platform then uses the final summary to create a PRD, which can be used to guide further development, upgrades, and maintenance.
