Abstract:
arXiv:2607.18356v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Maintaining up-to-date code documentation is difficult in fast-moving repositories because design knowledge is scattered across source files and pull requests. We present CODENS , a system that turns pull requests into living, accessible, and queryable documentation for production codebases. CODENS incrementally builds a typed software knowledge graph from pull requests, enriches components through schema-driven semantic extraction, derives typed
