The Scenario
You are a lead developer joining a new project and need to understand a massive, undocumented legacy codebase quickly.
Before & after
The old way
Manually skimming a 500-page PDF or 50 source files to find specific information could take 4-6 hours.
With AI
Use Claude Sonnet 5 to process large codebases or documents in seconds. Total time: 1-2 minutes for the AI to ingest and summarize.
The Prompt
I am uploading [SYSTEM_ARCHITECTURE_DOCS] and [SOURCE_CODE_FILES]. Based on these, explain how the authentication flow works and identify any potential security bottlenecks.
Claude Sonnet 5 features a 1M token context window, allowing you to feed it entire books or massive code repositories at once without losing coherence.
