Usage Examples

Prompt Template

Using Serena, help me [SPECIFY TASK, e.g., debug a piece of code, retrieve documentation, refactor a function] in my [PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE] project for [COMPANY] in the [INDUSTRY] sector. Here’s the code I’m working with: [CODE SNIPPET].

Example Output

### Code Debugging Output

**Issue Identified:** The variable `x` is not defined before it is used in the function `calculateTotal()`. 

**Suggested Fix:** Define `x` at the beginning of the function:
```python
def calculateTotal():
    x = 0  # Initialize x before using it
    total = x + 10
    return total
```

**Additional Recommendations:**
- Consider adding error handling for unexpected inputs.
- Ensure that all variables are declared before use to avoid runtime errors.
