Totally agree. I used to work with a team that built a project for creating ontologies of Git repositories. The goal was to help LLMs onboard faster and navigate the repo better.
In the end, it became heavy overengineering: people no longer understood not only the repo itself, but also the extra layer describing it. Meanwhile, coding assistants are already quite good at reading codebases directly.
