Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about codebase architecture diagram generator

How does a codebase become an architecture diagram?

The AI reads what encodes the system rather than parsing every import: compose files, IaC, CI config, folder structure, service entry points. From that it draws a system-level picture of what runs, what talks to what, and where state lives, on a canvas you can edit and refine with follow-up instructions.

How do I keep the diagram in sync with the code?

Connect the repository through the repo sync feature. Datadef supports GitHub, GitLab, and Azure DevOps cloud repos, connected with a public URL or a read-only token, one branch or tag per diagram. A daily sync re-reads the code and regenerates the diagram, with manual refresh and MCP tools when you want it now, and the generated architecture doc embeds the live diagram when it is public. This is a paid-plan feature with a 7-day free trial, no card required.

Is this a UML or class diagram tool?

No. The output is system architecture: services, databases, queues, third-party APIs, and the connections between them. For class-level structure or call graphs, a static-analysis tool tied to your language is the better fit.

Can my coding agent draw the diagram instead?

Yes. Datadef ships an MCP server, so Claude Code, Cursor, or any MCP client with your repository open can drive the canvas directly and draw what it finds, using its full context of the code.
