SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill converts requests for code tours, onboarding walkthroughs, architecture tours, and PR tours into reusable CodeTour .tour JSON files anchored to real files and line ranges, removing guesswork and ensuring reproducible guided walkthroughs.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Persona-targeted tours: Produce tours tailored for new joiners, reviewers, architects, RCA investigators, or security reviewers with an appropriate step count and narrative.
  • Verified file and line anchors: Confirm file existence and validate line or selection ranges before including anchors to prevent broken links.
  • Standardized .tour artifacts: Emit only CodeTour JSON files saved under .tours/ for use with editor extensions and shared onboarding workflows.
  • Use Case: Create an architecture walkthrough that highlights core modules and trust boundaries for a security review, or generate a PR-focused tour that guides reviewers through important diffs.

Quick Start

Ask the assistant to generate a persona-targeted CodeTour that walks a new maintainer through the repository's main modules and save the resulting .tour file in .tours/.

Frequently Asked Questions about code-tour

FAQPage Schema
How do I create a guided code tour for onboarding new developers to a repository?▼

Create a guided code tour for onboarding by generating persona-targeted CodeTour .tour JSON files that walk new developers through a repository using verified file and line anchors. The resulting artifacts are saved directly into the .tours/ directory for immediate use.

Can I generate CodeTour files that highlight specific diffs for a PR review?▼

Yes, you can generate CodeTour files for PR reviews that guide reviewers through important diffs. The tour validates file existence and line ranges before including anchors to ensure every referenced path exists and prevents broken links.

What is the best way to document a codebase architecture for security reviews?▼

Document a codebase architecture for security reviews by creating CodeTour artifacts that highlight core modules and trust boundaries. These tours are tailored specifically for security reviewers with an appropriate step count and narrative.

Do CodeTour .tour files modify the original source files in my repository?▼

No, CodeTour .tour files do not modify your original source files. The process outputs a JSON .tour file into the .tours/ directory and validates ranges to ensure reproducible guided walkthroughs without altering your codebase.

How do I ensure my codebase walkthrough anchors point to valid line numbers?▼

Ensure your codebase walkthrough anchors are valid by verifying file existence and validating line or selection ranges before including them. This mechanism removes guesswork and prevents broken links in your guided repository tours.
