What problem does it solve?

When a colony lands on an existing codebase (brownfield project), it needs structured understanding before it can plan work. This skill performs deep analysis producing a colonization report -- the colony's orientation map.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Reconnaissance Sweep: scan top-level project structure to identify language, framework, build system, and entry points.
  • Architecture Mapping & API Catalog: trace dependencies and map module boundaries, identify data flow, and catalog public interfaces and integrations.
  • Data-layer and Tech-Debt insights: document storage patterns, migrations, and identify hotspots for improvement.

Quick Start

Provide a colonization report for the target repository summarizing language, architecture, data flows, and external integrations.
