CodeDNA: AI Codebase Archaeologist Built with Gemma 4 Thinking Mode

You inherited this codebase 6 months ago. You can feel something went wrong around 2021. Bug reports spiked. Velocity dropped. The original authors left. The commit history has 3,000 entries — and every answer is in there.

Nobody has time to read 3,000 commits.

CodeDNA does.

What I Built

CodeDNA is an AI Codebase Archaeologist. You paste your git log, and Gemma 4 — using Thinking Mode — reconstructs the story of your codebase: bug storms, architectural pivots, refactor eras, feature bursts, and an overall health score with a transparent breakdown.
