  • Discovers Makefile targets and documents their purpose from comments
  • Extracts npm scripts from package.json and records their intent
  • Generates a centralized commands reference for planning and execution

Quick Start

FAQPage Schema
How do I automatically document all npm scripts and Makefile targets in a project?▼

Automatically documenting project commands involves parsing Makefile targets and package.json scripts, extracting their purpose and intent to generate a centralized reference document at thoughts/notes/commands.md.

What is the best way to inventory build commands across diverse languages for planning?▼

Inventorying build commands across diverse languages involves detecting language-specific build tasks and consolidating them into a reference document to reduce planning time and prevent missed execution steps.

Can I extract the purpose of Makefile targets from comments automatically?▼

Yes, you can extract the purpose of Makefile targets by parsing the Makefile configurations, capturing the intent behind each target and recording it in a generated commands reference document.

Does project command discovery work with language-specific build tools outside of npm and Makefiles?▼

Project command discovery works with npm scripts, Makefile targets, and other build tool configurations across diverse languages by detecting language-specific build tasks during the inventory process.

Why generate a centralized commands reference before starting project planning?▼

Generating a centralized commands reference before planning prevents missed steps during execution by ensuring every runnable command in a codebase is quickly discovered and documented in a single file.
