A problem here is that, in some sense, the agent that wrote the code is not the same agent that is answering questions about it. if the original agent didn't leave their reasoning, you are probably out of luck.

There are tools like git-ai [0] that capture LLM sessions and associate each file edit to a specific agent action, and let agents query a given piece of code to read the conversation around it (what the user prompted, what was the reasoning of the LLM that created the code, etc). They could change the balance, but are not widely used
