context-layers

What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the challenge of documenting the structural, semantic, and philosophical context of a module or service. It helps in building necessary artifacts to prevent dark code and improve maintainability.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Automated Context Artifacts: Generates module manifests, behavioral contracts, and decision logs for new or heavily modified modules/services.
• Interview and Embedded Modes: Supports standalone interviews and ADLC embedded mode to adapt to different usage scenarios.
• Standalone Interview Mode: Facilitates manual documentation of context layers through an interactive interview process.
• ADLC Embedded Mode: Integrates into ADLC to assist with artifact generation and context capture during automated workflows.
• Use Case: For a developer working on a complex module, this skill can automatically generate necessary context documents to improve codebase understanding and maintainability.

Quick Start

Use the context-layers skill to build context for the new module 'module-x' with the command 'context-layers new_module="module-x" description="A module for processing transactions."'.
