From source to documentation to a reviewed fix#
Consider a service whose retry limit changes from three attempts to five. This is an illustrative walkthrough, not a customer result. The generated reference should cite the implementation and explain the configured limit. A proposed documentation correction would look like:
## Webhook delivery
- Failed deliveries are retried up to three times.
+ Failed deliveries are retried up to five times.
Source: src/delivery/retry.ts
A reviewer checks the cited implementation before accepting the patch. On Pro and Team, Friday Cleanup batches outstanding fixes into a docs-only PR. MCP lets your coding agent retrieve the current documentation and conventions from the same repository index.
Explore the interactive demo, see a real documentation-drift example, or connect your editor over MCP.
When teams pick Moxie Docs over Google Code Wiki
- Documentation is generated from repository source - not hand-written MDX or wiki pages.
- Drift detection and Friday Cleanup PRs keep docs aligned with every merge.
- The same index powers MCP context for Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, and Windsurf.
Target Audience
Engineering teams who like the auto-generated wiki experience Google Code Wiki offers for public repos, but need it for their own private codebase, with pull requests and MCP context for coding agents.
