What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps developers generate standardized app specification documents from codebases, reducing manual documentation time and ensuring consistent architecture summaries.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • XML App Spec Generation: Produce a complete app_spec.txt in XML format from the project's structure, dependencies, and conventions.
  • Codebase Analysis: Inspect directories, files, and patterns to extract high-level architecture and component mappings.
  • Documentation for Handoffs: Create concise, shareable documentation for onboarding, handoffs, or audits.

Quick Start

To use this Skill, run it against your codebase to generate app_spec.txt in the project root. Pass the path to the repository you want analyzed; the Skill will produce a well-structured XML spec that you can review or hand off to teammates.
