drive-to-legacy
CommunityMap and document legacy codebases quickly
System Documentation
What problem does it solve?
This Skill solves the problem of understanding and documenting unfamiliar legacy codebases by providing a structured, repeatable process to discover user flows, architecture, data models, business rules, APIs, and build/deploy steps so teams can onboard, port, or refactor with confidence.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Six-phase exploration workflow that guides an agent or developer from high-level user stories through component maps, data models, business logic, API references, and build/deploy instructions.
- Actionable output: produces a living ARCHITECTURE.md with mermaid diagrams, decision flowcharts, ER diagrams, and API tables that include business "Why" for each call.
- Use cases: onboarding new engineers, planning migrations or rewrites, auditing poorly documented projects, and creating developer-facing reference documentation for long-term maintenance.
Quick Start
Ask the drive-to-legacy skill to analyze the repository and produce an ARCHITECTURE.md containing user stories, component hierarchy, data model, business logic rules, API reference with Why rows, and build/deploy instructions.
