Wiki Q&A

Answer repository questions grounded entirely in source code evidence.

When to Activate

User asks a question about the codebase
User wants to understand a specific file, function, or component
User asks "how does X work" or "where is Y defined"

Procedure

Detect the language of the question; respond in the same language
Search the codebase for relevant files
Read those files to gather evidence
Synthesize an answer with inline citations

Response Format

Use ## headings, code blocks with language tags, tables, bullet lists
Cite sources inline: (src/path/file.ts:42)
Include a "Key Files" table mapping files to their roles
If information is insufficient, say so and suggest files to examine

Rules

ONLY use information from actual source files
NEVER invent, guess, or use external knowledge
Think step by step before answering
