Cross-Graph Tools

The cross-graph tool bridges the code graph and docs graph, giving you a unified view of a symbol across both source code and documentation.

info

This tool requires both the docs graph and code graph to be enabled.

docs_cross_references

Returns the complete picture for a symbol: its source code definition, documentation mentions, and code examples from docs.

Parameters

Parameter	Required	Description
symbol	Yes	Symbol name to look up (e.g. "hashPassword", "UserService")

Returns

{
  "definitions": [...],
  "documentation": [...],
  "examples": [...]
}

Field	Description
definitions	Source code symbols from the code graph (signatures, file locations)
documentation	Documentation sections that mention the symbol
examples	Code blocks from docs that reference the symbol

When to use

Use docs_cross_references when you need complete context about a symbol. Instead of making separate calls to code_search, docs_search, and docs_find_examples, this single tool gives you everything:

• The actual code definition (from source files)
• The documentation that explains it (from markdown)
• The usage examples (from code blocks in docs)

This is particularly useful before modifying a function or class — you see its implementation, how it is documented, and what examples reference it, all at once.
