You were asking for modules and now you're down to the function level. That's a much easier problem to solve. Hoogle, Javadoc, documentation and good index engines solve this problem easily.
Note that type only is pretty ambiguous and most of the time useless without additional metadata. Types tell you what, they don't tell you why or how.

At some point, the human brain has to step in and make a call. You can't expect an automated tool to dictate to you the code you need to write.
