Getting Started with RepoWise

Ever wished your AI coding assistant just knew your project? RepoWise makes that happen.

RepoWise scans your codebase and generates rich context files that tools like Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, and others read automatically. Your AI assistant understands your architecture, patterns, and conventions before writing a single line of code.

npm install -g repowise

How It Works​

  1. You connect a repo on the RepoWise dashboard
  2. AI analyzes your codebase - architecture, APIs, patterns, data models, conventions
  3. Context files are generated - structured Markdown files your AI tools read natively
  4. A background listener keeps them fresh - every time you push code, context updates automatically

Your AI tools read these files through their native config (CLAUDE.md, .cursorrules, .github/copilot-instructions.md, etc.) and instantly understand your project.

What You Get​

Here's a snippet from a real architecture.md context file:

## System Architecture

The application follows a serverless event-driven architecture:

- **API Layer**: AWS Lambda + API Gateway (REST)
- **Data Layer**: DynamoDB single-table design with GSI for access patterns
- **Pipeline**: Step Functions orchestrating clone → scan → generate → validate
- **Auth**: Cognito User Pools with OAuth2/PKCE

### Key patterns:

- Middy middleware chain for auth, validation, error handling
- Repository pattern for all DynamoDB access
- Zod schemas for request/response validation

Without RepoWise, your AI tool guesses. With RepoWise, it knows.
