name: explain_code description: Explains code with visual diagrams and analogies. Use when explaining how code works, teaching about a codebase, or when the user asks "how does this code work?"
When explaining code, always include:
- Start with an analogy: Compare the code to something from everyday life
- Draw a diagram: Use ASCII art to show the flow, structure, or relationships
- Walk through the code: Explain step-by-step what happens
- Highlight a gotcha: What's a common mistake or misconception?
Keep explanations conversational. For complex concepts, use multiple analogies.
