SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Automatically generate a complete Blueprint structure from an existing repository, ensuring decisions, ADRs, and governance artifacts are surfaced as a single source of truth and action-ready for onboarding.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Detect repository structure and existing documentation to seed a Blueprint skeleton.
  • Generate ADRs, plan formats, and agent-instruction references, enabling repeatable onboarding.
  • Support iterative onboarding by re-running to refine the Blueprint as the codebase evolves.

Quick Start

Enter plan mode, analyze the repository, and generate the full Blueprint structure for onboarding.

FAQPage Schema
How do I auto-generate onboarding documentation from an existing repo?

To auto-generate onboarding documentation, enter plan mode to analyze repository structure and package metadata. This extracts decisions and generates a complete blueprint with ADRs, plan formats, and agent-instruction references as a single source of truth.

What is a blueprint structure for repository onboarding?

A blueprint structure for repository onboarding is a standard file layout that surfaces decisions, ADRs, and governance artifacts as a single source of truth. It includes ADRs, specs, plan formats, and agent-instruction references for action-ready onboarding.

How do I extract ADRs from an existing codebase?

To extract ADRs from a codebase, run the blueprint generation process in plan mode. It reads existing documentation and repo structure to identify decisions, then wires up ADRs within a standard file layout linked to specs and agent-instruction references.

Can I regenerate a blueprint as my codebase evolves?

Yes, you can regenerate a blueprint as your codebase evolves. The Skill supports iterative onboarding by allowing you to re-run the generation process to refine the Blueprint structure, keeping ADRs and documentation current with repository changes.

Does the blueprint generation handle CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md files?

Yes, blueprint generation handles CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md files. The workflow applies specific symlink and detection rules for these files to ensure agent-instruction references are correctly wired into the generated structure.
