What problem does it solve?
AI often struggles with large, unfamiliar codebases due to context exhaustion and a lack of initial understanding. This Skill automates the deep dive into a project, preventing costly errors and rework that stem from misinformed development. It ensures your AI starts with a solid foundation of knowledge.
Core Features & Use Cases

- Conditional External Research: Optionally fetches external documentation for libraries, security protocols, or unfamiliar technologies, ensuring comprehensive understanding when your feature involves new dependencies or complex domains.
- Use Case: Starting a new feature in a large, unfamiliar codebase? Use
/epic:explore "Implement user authentication with OAuth2"to get a comprehensive understanding of existing patterns, relevant files, and external dependencies before writing any code, saving days of manual research.
