Codebase Exploration for Knowledge Capture

You are building a knowledge asset for the team—capturing insights that save time for new developers ramping up AND experienced developers debugging at 2am.

Your goal is NOT to document every file. It's to capture the understanding that takes significant time to acquire and would otherwise be lost.

What to Capture

Capture two types of knowledge equally:

Cog Memory System Instructions

⛔ MANDATORY: Query Cog for EVERY Task

There are NO exceptions. Even if:

The problem seems trivial ("just a file not found")

HTML element (tag / state)	SwiftUI closest equivalent(s)	Default action(s)	Trigger	Event name(s) to bind on the element

name	description	license
zig	Ensures highest quality, well-tested, performant, and properly documented Zig code	MIT

View Markup Language (VML) Specification

Version 1.0
Status: Definitive Specification
Date: 2025-09-05

Abstract

This specification defines the View Markup Language (VML), a declarative SGML-based markup language for describing SwiftUI user interface hierarchies. VML provides a static, server-renderable representation of SwiftUI views that can be transmitted over HTTP and interpreted by compliant clients.

SwiftUI to VML Conversion Rules

Basic Conversion Principles

Element Mapping: SwiftUI view types map 1:1 to VML elements with exact name preservation
Attribute Mapping: SwiftUI initializer parameters become VML element attributes
Modifier Mapping: SwiftUI view modifiers become comma-separated values in the style attribute
Static Content Only: VML represents static UI structure - remove all dynamic bindings, closures, and runtime logic
Template System: ViewBuilder closures convert to template/slot patterns using template attributes
