FAQPage Schema
How do I create context skills to navigate large codebases faster?

Create area context skills by running scripts/area-context-update <AREA_NAME> to generate SKILL.md files with symbol indexing and navigation metadata. This enables fast file discovery and entry-point guidance for specific codebase areas like analytics or security-resolver.

What does area-context auto-detection with Serena do?

Area-context auto-detection uses Serena for one-time scanning to identify codebase structure, then generates template-based SKILL.md files automatically. This eliminates manual setup and ensures consistent symbol indexing and area navigation metadata across your repository.

When should I regenerate area context skills?

Regenerate area context skills after major refactors, when expanding to new areas, or when improving symbol discovery. Run area-context-update to refresh navigation metadata, test coverage indexing, and backup-disambiguation for affected codebase areas.

How do I maintain area context skills manually?

Maintain area context skills by reading area-config.yml, applying globs and detectors to identify files, indexing symbols, and producing area-specific navigation metadata. Manual maintenance supports ongoing updates alongside Serena's one-time auto-detection.

Can I use area-context skills for existing codebase areas?

Yes, area-context applies to existing areas like analytics, brokerage, security-resolver, and core-data during initial setup or after refactors. Template-based generation supports both new areas and regeneration of established codebase regions.
