# Documentation

Set up SourceAnt, connect your tools and learn how to work with your code, systems, knowledge and requirements. Pick a guide for the task you want to do.

## Getting started

[

### Getting started

Connect your repositories and explore your code, systems and team knowledge.

](https://sourceant.ai/docs/getting-started)[

### Cloud users

Get started quickly with the hosted service. No infrastructure to manage.

## Features

[

### Systems

Bring repositories and resources together, discover connections and check their evidence.

](https://sourceant.ai/docs/systems)[

### Architecture inspection

Read components, classes and dependencies, or compare local architecture snapshots.

](https://sourceant.ai/docs/architecture)[

### Skills

Create shared instructions, override them for a repository and use them through MCP.

](https://sourceant.ai/docs/skills)[

### Requirements

Record intent, organise projects and releases, and link implementation and test evidence.

](https://sourceant.ai/docs/requirements)[

### Analytics

Inspect background work, model spending and what connected tools retrieve.

](https://sourceant.ai/docs/analytics)[

### Cross-repository reviews

Group repositories into a system so one review reads every repository a change reaches.

### Knowledge management

Capture the why behind your code and serve it over MCP. In the open core and managed on the cloud.

](https://sourceant.ai/docs/knowledge-management)[

### Code review

Reviews grounded in the knowledge available to the instance that runs them.

](https://sourceant.ai/docs/code-review)[

### Issue triage

Duplicate detection and auto-labeling for PRs and issues.

](https://sourceant.ai/docs/repo-management)
