gather-context

To gather technical context, this Skill consolidates documentation, codebase analysis, architecture files, and existing ADRs. It extracts reusable patterns and identifies dependencies to inform decision-making before starting feature implementation.

Identifying codebase patterns for decision making involves analyzing existing code and architecture files to extract reusable patterns. This Skill proactively asks targeted questions to fill knowledge gaps regarding constraints and preferred implementation approaches.

Context gathering handles missing documentation by proactively asking targeted user questions. This approach fills knowledge gaps directly, ensuring dependencies and constraints are accurately identified despite incomplete source materials.

Yes, you can use this context gathering approach to support ADR generation. It collects comprehensive architectural decisions and extracts patterns, providing a solid foundation for architecture decision records and workflow progression.

Automated context extraction works without external dependencies. The Skill operates independently using internal scripts and references to consolidate data from local documentation, codebase analysis, and existing architecture files.
