one thing i feel that is really needed is a kind of editor / AI tool which allows you to incrementally make and explore queries of a codebase. For example, I could totally imagine using these AI tools to do code search across codebases--but I have tried them and they are horrible at this generally, maybe some RAG approaches are better? but i haven't seen these too much, presumably someone has done it
