The problem: Joining a new codebase is slow and frustrating. Docs go stale, the people who wrote the code have moved on, and searching by keyword only gets you part of the way: you still don't know if that function is actually used anywhere, or which of five similar-looking files is the real one.
The solution: Onboarding Buddy is a chat assistant you point at any codebase. Point it at a GitHub repo or a folder on your computer, add your onboarding docs, and start asking questions in plain English. "How does login work here?" "What would break if I changed this function?" "Where's the payment logic?" Every answer comes with clickable citations that jump straight to the exact lines of code it's talking about, so you're never left wondering if the answer is made up. It also understands how the code connects, so it can answer "what depends on this" questions, not just "what does this look like."
