- **`README.md`** - Project Overview - Add automated code analysis to core capabilities
- **`src/core/analysis/`** - Technical Implementation - Code analysis engine modules
### Content Location Map
- **Feature Overview**: See `docs/code-analysis-guide.md` (Section: "What is Code Analysis")
- **Repository Scanning**: See `docs/code-analysis-guide.md` (Section: "Repository Analysis")
- **Setup Instructions**: See `docs/code-analysis-guide.md` (Section: "Configuration")
- **MCP Tools**: See `docs/mcp-guide.md` (Section: "Code Analysis Tools")
- **Examples**: See `docs/code-analysis-guide.md` (Section: "Usage Examples")
### User Journey Validation
- [ ] **Primary workflow** documented end-to-end: Point to repo → Analyze code → Get deployment recommendations → Deploy
- [ ] **Secondary workflows** have complete coverage: Configuration analysis, dependency detection, optimization suggestions
- [ ] **Cross-references** between manual and automated recommendation workflows work correctly
- [ ] **Examples and commands** are testable via automated validation
## Implementation Requirements
- [ ] **Core functionality**: Repository scanning and code analysis - Documented in `docs/code-analysis-guide.md` (Section: "Analysis Engine")
- [ ] **User workflows**: Automated intent generation and configuration recommendations - Documented in `docs/code-analysis-guide.md` (Section: "Automated Workflows")
- [ ] **Performance optimization**: Efficient code analysis with caching and parallel processing
### Success Criteria
- [ ] **Analysis accuracy**: Accurately identify application type, dependencies, and requirements from code
- [ ] **Recommendation quality**: Generated deployment recommendations match or exceed manual descriptions
- [ ] **Repository support**: Support for major programming languages and frameworks
- [ ] **Integration seamless**: Code analysis integrates smoothly with existing recommendation workflows
