SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Generating AI-agent-friendly documentation from large codebases is tedious and error-prone; codedocs automates this process to produce up-to-date, structured docs that help agents understand and operate on code.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated module-level documentation, architecture overview, and pattern references derived from repository structure.
  • Incremental updates after code changes, keeping docs in sync with the codebase.
  • Multi-agent compatibility with a consistent SKILL.md frontmatter interface to support Claude Code, Gemini CLI, and OpenAI Codex.

Quick Start

Activate codedocs on your repository to generate the initial AI-agent-friendly documentation and module map.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate AI-agent-friendly documentation from my codebase?

To generate AI-agent-friendly documentation from a codebase, you need an automated tool that scans the repository, identifies modules and cross-cutting patterns, and outputs a structured docs package including an architecture overview and module map for reliable Q&A.

How do I keep my repository documentation in sync after code changes?

Keeping repository documentation in sync after code changes requires an incremental update process that rescans the modified codebase and overwrites the outdated module docs and manifest, ensuring the AI-ready docs always reflect the current state of the repository.

Can I generate module-level docs that work with Claude Code, Gemini CLI, and OpenAI Codex?

Yes, you can generate module-level docs compatible with Claude Code, Gemini CLI, and OpenAI Codex by using a consistent SKILL.md frontmatter interface that provides multi-agent compatibility for the structured documentation package.

What's the best way to automate codebase onboarding documentation for AI tools?

The best way to automate codebase onboarding documentation for AI tools is to scan the repository structure to detect modules, derive an architecture overview, and output a structured manifest with cross-cutting pattern references for reliable Q&A.

Does automated documentation generation support incremental updates for large repositories?

Automated documentation generation supports incremental updates for large repositories by scanning the updated codebase, identifying changed modules, and reporting the documentation status to keep the AI-ready docs package up to date.

Why do I need a structured manifest for my codebase documentation?

You need a structured manifest for your codebase documentation to provide AI agents with a reliable map of the repository, enabling fast onboarding and accurate Q&A by directing the agent to the correct module docs and architecture overview.
