What problem does it solve?
Repos without pre-built, accurate agent context force coding agents to re-derive project details from source code on every run, slowing down work and increasing the risk of errors from outdated or missing context. This Skill eliminates that friction by building a verified, up-to-date context layer for any repository.
Core Features & Use Cases
- COLD/STALE Auto-Detection: Automatically identifies if a repo has no agent context (COLD) or outdated, drifted context (STALE) to route to the correct workflow.
- Verified Project Profile: Builds a single source of truth for the repo's stack, commands, structure, conventions, and more, pulling only verified facts from manifests and source files.
- Human-Gated Writes: Shows diffs of all proposed changes to existing context files and requires explicit human confirmation before writing, never blind-overwriting hand-tuned files.
- Use Case: Use to onboard a new repo for use with the Maungs agentic toolbelt, refresh stale agent context after major project changes, or repair broken context that no longer aligns with the current codebase. Supports lean mode for core context files or --deep mode for full documentation wiki generation.
Quick Start
Invoke the agentic-onboard skill to prepare your current repository for agentic development, generating or refreshing the required agent context files after you review any proposed changes.
