Find out why your code exists before changing it.
What it does

When to use it
Use when investigating why code exists, who introduced it, or what historical constraints matter before a rewrite or refactor.
How to use it
Give it a repository and tracked file, optionally narrowed to current lines; it returns a historical explanation with confidence, evidence, and change risks.
