Experimental toolkit for auto‑generating codebase documentation using LLMs

Autodoc, from Context Labs, is a command‑line toolkit that automatically generates comprehensive documentation for codebases using large language models like GPT‑4 or Alpaca. It's designed to integrate easily into Git repositories—setup takes just about five minutes—by traversing your code and invoking an LLM to produce markdown summaries at both file and folder levels. The generated documentation is fully versioned alongside your code, and users can query it interactively using natural language via the doc q command to get context‑rich answers linked directly to source files . Although Autodoc is fully functional, it's still early-stage and considered experimental—not yet suited for production without additional review. Performance can vary based on code complexity and the LLM model used. For best results, using GPT‑4 is strongly recommended .
