Hi HN! I’m Omar from Mutable.ai. We want to introduce Auto Wiki (https://wiki.mutable.ai/), which lets you generate a Wiki-style website to document your codebase. Citations link to code, with clickable references to each line of code being discussed. Here are some examples of popular projects:

React: https://wiki.mutable.ai/facebook/react

Ollama https://wiki.mutable.ai/jmorganca/ollama

D3: https://wiki.mutable.ai/d3/d3

Terraform: https://wiki.mutable.ai/hashicorp/terraform

Bitcoin: https://wiki.mutable.ai/bitcoin/bitcoin

Mastodon: https://wiki.mutable.ai/mastodon/mastodon

Auto Wiki makes it easy to see at a high level what a codebase is doing and how the work is divided. In some cases we’ve identified entire obsolete sections of codebases by seeing a section for code that was no longer important. Auto Wiki relies on our citations system which cuts back on hallucinations. The citations link to a precise reference or definition which means the wiki generation is grounded on the basis of the code being cited rather than free form generation.

We’ve run Auto Wiki on the most popular 1,000 repos on GitHub. If you want us to generate a wiki of a public repo for you, just comment in this thread! The wikis take time to generate as we are still ramping up our capacity, but I’ll reply that we’ve launched the process and then come back with a link to your wiki when it’s ready.

For private repos, you can use our app (https://app.mutable.ai) to generate wikis. We also offer private deployments with our own model for enterprise customers; you can ping us at info@mutable.ai. Anyone that already has access to a repo through GitHub will be able to view the wiki, only the person generating the wikis needs to pay to create them. Pricing starts at $4 and ramps up by $2 increments depending on how large your repo is.

In an upcoming version of Auto Wiki, we’ll include other sources of information relevant to your code and generate architectural diagrams.

Please check out Auto Wiki and let us know your thoughts! Thank you!
