Use Cases

Real-world scenarios where Codehere helps you work faster and smarter.

For Individual Developers

Multi-File Refactoring with Dependency Awareness

Refactor across multiple files safely. Codehere understands dependencies, creates step-by-step plans, and makes changes in the right order.

Try This:

codehere orchestrate "Refactor authentication to use JWT tokens across all services"

What Makes It Special:

  • Analyzes dependencies between files automatically
  • Creates step-by-step plan with proper execution order
  • Validates each change before proceeding
  • Rolls back automatically if any step fails

Time Saved: 2-3 days → 2-4 hours

AI That Remembers Your Codebase

Codehere learns from every interaction. It remembers patterns, decisions, and context across sessions, unlike other tools that start fresh each time.

Try This:

codehere "Add the same logging pattern we used in user-service"

What Makes It Special:

  • Remembers patterns from previous refactors
  • Applies learned conventions automatically
  • Suggests solutions based on past decisions
  • Gets smarter with every use

Time Saved: No more explaining context repeatedly

Find Code by What It Does

Finds code by its structure and relationships, not just keywords. Understands how functions connect to each other.

Try This:

codehere "Find all functions that call the authentication service"

What Makes It Special:

  • Understands caller/callee relationships
  • Finds code by structure, not just text
  • Tracks symbol dependencies across files
  • More accurate than keyword search

Time Saved: Minutes instead of hours searching

Debug Complex Problems Step-by-Step

Codehere thinks through problems systematically. Investigates step-by-step to find root causes.

Try This:

codehere "Why is the payment service timing out in production?"

What Makes It Special:

  • Thinks through problems step-by-step
  • Uses tools to investigate (searches code, reads files, runs tests)
  • Tracks how data flows through your system
  • Finds root causes you might miss

Time Saved: Hours of debugging → 15-30 minutes

Context-Aware Changes with Git Integration

Understands your git history and current branch. Makes changes that respect your workflow and commit patterns.

Try This:

codehere plan "Add feature flags for the new auth system"

What Makes It Special:

  • Reads git context to understand current state
  • Respects branch naming conventions
  • Suggests appropriate commit messages
  • Integrates with your existing workflow

Time Saved: No context switching between tools

Review Changes Before Applying

See exactly what will change before any code is modified. Review the changes, then approve or reject. Stay in control.

Try This:

codehere orchestrate "Refactor auth to JWT" --review

What Makes It Special:

  • Structured summaries showing files, checks, and risk
  • Review changes before they're applied
  • Automatic validation (compilation, tests, syntax)
  • Approval workflow for safe automation

Time Saved: Catch issues before they break production

For Development Teams

Pattern Learning & Cross-Team Sharing

Codehere learns patterns from one project and applies them to others. Share best practices across teams automatically.

Try This:

codehere "Apply the error handling pattern from project-alpha to this service"

What Makes It Special:

  • Extracts patterns from successful implementations
  • Shares patterns across projects and teams
  • Maintains consistency without manual enforcement
  • Preserves team knowledge

Time Saved: Weeks of manual pattern documentation

Remembers Your Decisions

Never lose context. Codehere remembers decisions you've made, why you made them, and how your codebase evolved.

Try This:

codehere "Why did we choose Redis over Memcached?"

What Makes It Special:

  • Records why decisions were made
  • Remembers the reasoning behind choices
  • Preserves knowledge when team members leave
  • Builds team memory over time

Time Saved: No more lost team knowledge

Plan Complex Features Step-by-Step

Break down complex features into manageable tasks. Codehere creates plans that understand dependencies and executes them safely.

Try This:

codehere plan "Implement user authentication with OAuth, JWT, and refresh tokens"

What Makes It Special:

  • Creates step-by-step plans with dependencies
  • Breaks complex tasks into smaller steps
  • Executes in correct order automatically
  • Tracks progress across multiple files

Time Saved: Days of planning → Automated execution

Onboarding New Team Members 70% Faster

New developers get up to speed faster. Codehere explains architecture, patterns, and decisions in context.

Try This:

codehere "Explain the authentication architecture and why we use this pattern"

What Makes It Special:

  • Understands codebase structure automatically
  • Explains patterns and conventions
  • Shows examples from actual code
  • Answers questions in context

Time Saved: 2 weeks → 3-4 days onboarding

Safe Code Editing with Validation

Every change goes through automatic validation: compilation checks, syntax validation, and rollback protection. Policy guardrails prevent risky edits.

Try This:

codehere fix src/auth.ts "Add input validation" --review

What Makes It Special:

  • Automatic compilation checks before applying
  • Syntax validation and error detection
  • Automatic rollback on failure
  • Policy guardrails (line limits, restricted folders)

Time Saved: Prevents broken code from being applied

Track What Works

See which commands work best for your codebase. Track success rates and make better decisions about automation.

Try This:

npm run analyze:feedback

What Makes It Special:

  • Success rates for different commands
  • See which operations succeed or fail
  • Identify which features are most reliable
  • Set quality standards for automated workflows

Time Saved: Make informed decisions about automation

Real-World Success Stories

Migrating from REST to GraphQL

The Challenge:

Need to refactor 50+ API endpoints across 12 services while maintaining backward compatibility

The Solution:

codehere orchestrate "Migrate all REST endpoints to GraphQL while maintaining REST compatibility layer"

The Result:

Codehere created a step-by-step plan, identified dependencies, made changes in the right order, and completed the migration in 2 days instead of 2 weeks

Impact: 12 services, 50+ endpoints, 2 weeks → 2 days

Adding Comprehensive Logging

The Challenge:

Add structured logging across 8 microservices with consistent format and correlation IDs

The Solution:

codehere plan "Add structured logging with correlation IDs to all services"

The Result:

Codehere learned the logging pattern from one service, applied it consistently across all services, and ensured correlation IDs flow through the entire request chain

Impact: 8 services, 100+ files, 1 week → 1 day

Security Audit & Fix

The Challenge:

Security team found 20+ vulnerabilities. Need to fix them across multiple services without breaking functionality

The Solution:

codehere "Fix all SQL injection vulnerabilities found in the security audit"

The Result:

Codehere identified all vulnerable code paths, understood the context, applied secure fixes with proper parameterization, and validated each change

Impact: 20+ vulnerabilities, 5 services, 3 days → 4 hours
