Legacy Code Documentation:
the workflow in practice.

Selected subsystem-to-documentation draft

FROM INPUT TO HANDOFF

A clear job
for every step.

This is a proposed workflow pattern. We confirm data access, permissions, integration options and review ownership with your team before implementation.

Do not expose secrets from configuration. Static analysis cannot prove every runtime path or production configuration.

Explore the architecture behind the pattern ↗
01

Start with a defined trigger

An engineering owner selects a bounded subsystem for documentation.

02

Assemble the right context

Read authorized code, configuration examples, existing tests and relevant operational notes.

03

Perform the bounded task

Draft entry points, dependencies and data flow, linking statements to code and flagging assumptions.

04

Review before taking action

Maintainers verify the explanation and validate important runtime behavior in an appropriate environment.

05

Deliver and record the result

Store accepted documentation alongside the code with ownership and a review date.

Build an improvement loop
around real work.

Measure incorrect claims, missing dependencies, investigation questions answered and maintenance effort.

Keep the input, relevant context, review decision and final result connected. When a reviewer corrects something, use that evidence to improve the instructions or integration, then validate the change against representative cases.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT SUPPORT

Build it. Build with us.
Or have us manage it.

The workflow stays centered on your business. The engagement determines who learns, implements and operates it.

DIY

Your team owns the build.

Start with AI workflow training and the Factory Line source package. Workshop support is available when you need feedback.
