From a308a1c4a5b92de2ddcfddc9df3d2481e678fb9e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?R=7BAI=7Df=20D=2E=20M=C3=BCller?= Date: Sat, 7 Feb 2026 12:01:05 +0100 Subject: [PATCH 01/12] feat: add experimental `dacli ask` command for LLM-powered Q&A (#186) Adds an experimental `ask` command that uses an LLM to answer questions about documentation. Searches for relevant sections, builds context, and calls an LLM provider. Supports Claude Code CLI and Anthropic API with auto-detection. Available as CLI command (`dacli ask`/`dacli a`) and MCP tool (`ask_documentation_tool`).
