You can save the analysis and those are your docs. But your workflow has to maintain them in sync with the code.
I have no idea about token cost working for a FAANG, it’s a blind spot for me. One of these days I’m going to try to get QWen coder going for some personal projects on my M3 Max (I can run 30b or even 80b heavily quantized), and see if I can get something going that’s thrifty with the resources provided by a local LLM.
I’m not actually paying for tokens. Just trying to be a good citizen. And also trying to figure out how to set everyone in my organization up to do the same.
Interestingly while playing with Claude Code I just learned that /init actually does analyze and record findings.
