What does 'Documenting 7 of 25 files...' or 'Documentation in progress' mean?

Last updated on Nov 10, 2025

Short Answer: It indicates CodeDoc is processing files to generate documentation — some files are already documented while others are still being indexed.

Prerequisites

  1. You are viewing a repo while documentation generation is running

Steps

  1. Check the header area for the progress message such as 'Documenting 7 of 25 files...' or a spinner.
    You can see generation progress status.

  2. Open files marked as documented (they show a 'Last documented' time) to read completed docs.
    Documented files display their summaries and content.

Troubleshooting

  1. Progress stalls at the same number for a long time.
    LikelyCause: Indexing job failed or is blocked.
    Action: Refresh the page, wait a few minutes. If it remains stalled, contact your team admin or support to re-run indexing.

Note: Files that are already documented show 'Last documented' timestamps in module/tag file lists and help identify ready content.
