# Zoom Out
## Request
I don't know this area of code well. Go up a layer of abstraction. Give me a map of all the relevant modules and callers, using the project's domain glossary vocabulary.
## Output
- Start with a concise system map: major modules, responsibilities, and data flow.
- Identify the entry points, downstream callers, and external dependencies.
- Call out the key domain terms used by this area of the codebase.
- End with the next files or tests I should read to go deeper.
