Why capture comes first

Preserve the before-state before anyone starts changing it.

Before recovery, refactoring, modernization, or AI-assisted change, the first challenge is preserving what the deployed application actually did.

Modern applications depend on more than static files. They involve routes, runtime requests, storage, interaction paths, and application behavior that simple download tools do not fully preserve.

KodeCapture is designed to make that first step stronger and keep the evidence available for the work that follows.

What gets captured

The observable frontend surface.

KodeCapture focuses on the application truth exposed through the browser and preserves that evidence as a connected workspace.

Delivered application files and assets

The browser-visible application shell and the resources delivered while the app is observed.

Routes and retained flows

Pages, client-side routes, and meaningful interaction paths included in the capture scope.

Observed request activity

Requests, response evidence, and network behavior visible during the retained application flows.

Storage and client-visible state

Browser-side persistence surfaces that help explain the application state seen during capture.

Runtime evidence

Signals collected while the application runs, rather than inferred later from a screenshot.

Replay and inspection structure

The organization required to keep captured evidence useful after the original session ends.

The workflow

Capture facts first. Keep the handoff structured.

01

Start from the deployed app

Begin with the application that exists in the wild: the live frontend you need to preserve.

02

Observe and record the application

KodeCapture records the browser-visible surface of the application as it runs through the declared routes and flows.

03

Preserve the evidence in a workspace

The capture is organized into a replayable evidence workspace rather than left as disconnected artifacts.

04

Use that workspace downstream

The workspace can support product preservation, analysis, recovery, migration planning, AI-assisted engineering, and future Kalu Kode tooling.

What you get

More than a folder of files.

The core value of KodeCapture is not simply “download what you can.” It is producing a structured workspace that preserves enough application truth to be meaningfully replayed, inspected, and used later.

KodeCapture produces a replayable evidence workspace built from the observable frontend surface of the deployed app.Output principle

The workspace can then support:

  • product preservation
  • application analysis
  • recovery work
  • migration planning
  • AI-assisted engineering
  • future Kalu Kode tooling

The Kalu Kode stack

The intake layer for recovery and verification.

KodeCapture + KodeBack

KodeCapture preserves the deployed app as evidence. KodeBack uses that evidence as the starting point for recovering maintainable source.

KodeCapture + KodeProof

KodeCapture establishes behavioral truth. KodeProof helps AI agents preserve that truth during future software changes.
