Limits, standard complexes and fr-codes

For a strongly connected category $\mathcal C$ with pair-wise coproducts, we introduce a cosimplicial object, which serves as a sort of resolution for computing higher derived functors of ${\sf lim} : \mathrm{Ab}^{\mathcal C}\to \mathrm{Ab}$. Applications involve K\"unneth theorem for higher limits and ${\sf lim}$-finiteness of ${\bf fr}$-codes. A dictionary for the ${\bf fr}$-codes with words of length $\leq 3$ is given.
