About
About Sourcegraph Cody
Context at monorepo scale
Cody’s differentiator is Sourcegraph-shaped code intelligence: answers and edits that know about more than the open tab. The pain it targets is “our service graph is huge and chatbots hallucinate paths.”
When the investment pays
You already run Sourcegraph, or you are willing to. Solo apps with two packages rarely need this weight. Polyglot orgs with shared libraries across dozens of repos feel the upside.
Practical trial
Ask Cody to locate every caller of a deprecated API and draft a migration note. If it misses half the graph, the integration is not ready. If it maps the blast radius honestly, you found the job.
