FAQPage Schema
How do I track architectural decisions in a codebase?

You can track architectural decisions in a codebase by generating Architecture Decision Records that capture the rationale behind durable technical choices. This Skill automates ADR creation, ensuring historical context and decision tracking are accessible for future maintainers.

What is an ADR and when do I need to document one?

An ADR is an Architecture Decision Record used to document the context and rationale behind critical codebase decisions. You need an ADR for durable architectural choices to reduce ambiguity and ensure the reasoning is available to all team members.

How do I automate README file generation and inline code documentation?

Automating documentation generation creates accurate README files and inline code documentation directly from your repository. This Skill assists in maintaining up-to-date documentation to facilitate collaboration and reduce technical ambiguity across the codebase.

How do I document the adoption of a new CI/CD pipeline?

Documenting the adoption of a new CI/CD pipeline requires recording an ADR to capture the architectural decision and its rationale. This Skill generates the structured record, ensuring the historical context of the pipeline adoption is saved for future reference.

Can I use ADRs to onboard new team members to a codebase?

ADRs effectively onboard new team members by providing structured historical context for architectural and technical decisions. This Skill ensures all decisions are captured in the code repository, reducing ambiguity and accelerating the onboarding process.
