> I'm aware of the _why_ but this is why the tools aren't useful for my case. If they cannot consume the codebase in a reasonable amount of time and provide value from that then they generally aren't useful in areas where I would want to use them (navigating large codebases).

I challenge you to explore different perspectives.

You are faced with a service that handles any codebase that's thrown at it with incredible ease, without requiring any tweaking or special prompting.

For some reason, the same system fails to handle your personal codebase.

What's the root cause? Does it lie in the system that works everywhere with anything you throw at it? Or is it in your codebase?
