Generate concise summaries of source code at multiple scales. Use when users ask to summarize, explain, or understand code - whether it's a single function, a class, a module, or an entire codebase. Handles function-level code by explaining intention and core logic, and large codebases by providing high-level overviews with drill-down capabilities for specific modules.
