This AI Tool Maps Any Codebase Before You Touch It (Understand-Anything)

Описание: Understand-Anything is a new open-source AI tool that turns any codebase into an interactive knowledge graph so developers can understand large repos faster, onboard to legacy systems, and give AI coding agents better context.

In this video, I test Understand-Anything, a Claude Code plugin that also works with workflows like Cursor, Copilot, and Gemini CLI, to see whether it actually helps map a real codebase or if it is just another overhyped AI dev tool.
