SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Kickoff addresses the challenge of starting a new project or onboarding into an existing codebase by guiding you through tech stack auto-detection, integration choices, and generating project-level instructions and memory files for Claude Code.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Auto-detects tech stack from repository files and prompts skippable integration options (Jira, GitHub, DB, GSD, Archon, Context7, Playwright)
  • Generates tailored CLAUDE.md and MEMORY.md with project-specific instructions and gotchas
  • Optional Archon registration for task tracking
  • Non-destructive workflow — existing files are preserved unless explicitly overwritten with confirmation
  • Works for both new projects and onboarding into established codebases

Quick Start

Run /kickoff in your project directory to start the guided onboarding and generate CLAUDE.md plus MEMORY.md.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate CLAUDE.md and MEMORY.md for an existing codebase?

To generate CLAUDE.md and MEMORY.md for an existing codebase, run the /kickoff command in your project directory to auto-detect the tech stack and guide integration choices. The skill preserves existing files unless you explicitly confirm an overwrite.

What is the best way to set up project instructions for Claude Code?

Setting up project instructions for Claude Code is best handled by generating a tailored CLAUDE.md file. This file provides project-specific instructions, gotchas, and configuration notes for tools like Jira and GitHub to ensure proper context.

Can I configure Jira and GitHub integrations when onboarding into a new project?

Yes, you can configure Jira and GitHub integrations during project onboarding. The guided setup prompts you with skippable integration options to generate the necessary configuration notes for your specific tooling.

Does the kickoff onboarding workflow overwrite existing configuration files?

No, the kickoff onboarding workflow is non-destructive. It preserves existing files in your repository unless you explicitly provide confirmation to overwrite them during the guided generation process.

How does tech stack auto-detection work for Claude Code memory files?

Tech stack auto-detection works by scanning your repository files to identify the frameworks and tools in use. It then guides you through skippable integration choices to tailor the generated memory files appropriately.
