Claim 5:
6. A method for development tool user assistance, the method comprising:
computationally obtaining development problem information of a development problem of a current user from or in a development tool during a current development tool session;
computationally mapping the development problem information to a problem matching node in a mitigation graph data structure which has multiple nodes and resides in a digital memory, the mitigation graph nodes collectively representing interactions of a user interface of the development tool with at least one other user during at least one development tool session other than the current development tool session, the mitigation graph data structure also containing action metadata which indicates at least one of: an interaction cost, an action sequence cost, an action sequence desirability, or an interaction desirability;
computationally synthesizing documentation based at least in part on the problem matching node and the action metadata; and
computationally and visually presenting the synthesized documentation in the user interface of the development tool.
