SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the technical analysis of a codebase for a specific feature, creating or updating a discovery.md file with technical details, patterns, file mappings, and caching for future use.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated Codebase Analysis: Analyzes code relevant to a specific feature, identifying patterns, dependencies, and files to modify or create.
  • Cache Persistence: Saves analysis results in discovery.md to avoid redundant work across sessions.
  • Use Case: When starting development on a new user authentication feature, this Skill can analyze the existing codebase to identify relevant models, services, and potential conflicts with existing security features, providing a clear roadmap before coding begins.

Quick Start

Analyze the codebase for the new user profile feature.

FAQPage Schema
How do I analyze a codebase for a specific feature before starting development?▼

Analyzing a codebase for a specific feature involves identifying related files, patterns, and prerequisites, then mapping them into a discovery document to provide a clear technical roadmap before coding begins.

What is codebase feature discovery and when do I need it?▼

Codebase feature discovery is the automated technical analysis of existing code to identify dependencies, similar features, and delivery completeness for a new requirement, needed when starting development on unfamiliar or complex features.

Can I cache codebase analysis results to avoid redundant work across sessions?▼

Yes, caching codebase analysis results saves technical details, file mappings, and patterns into a discovery.md document, preventing redundant technical analysis across future development sessions.

What's the best way to document technical patterns and file mappings for new features?▼

The best way to document technical patterns and file mappings is to generate a structured discovery.md file that details related files, necessary prerequisites, and delivery completeness for the target feature.

Does automated code analysis identify potential conflicts with existing features?▼

Yes, automated code analysis identifies related files and similar features within the codebase, helping pinpoint potential conflicts with existing functionality and outlining necessary prerequisites before implementation.

How do I generate a development roadmap for a new user authentication feature?▼

Generating a development roadmap for a new user authentication feature requires analyzing existing codebase models and services to identify relevant patterns and dependencies, outputting a detailed technical discovery document.
