FAQPage Schema
How do I onboard a new contributor to a game project?

Run the onboard skill with the contributor's role specified. It reads AGENTS.md, scans the relevant directories for that role, reviews recent git history, and generates a structured onboarding document with architecture, conventions, and first tasks.

How to generate role-specific onboarding documentation automatically?

Specify a role such as programmer, designer, narrative, QA, or production when invoking the skill. It loads the matching agent definition from .codex/agents/ and scans the directories relevant to that discipline before writing the document.

What project files does the onboarding skill read?

It reads AGENTS.md for standards, role definitions from .codex/agents/, and scans src/, design/, tests/, or production/ depending on the role. It also reviews recent git log entries to capture current momentum.

Where is the generated onboarding document saved?

After presenting the document, the skill asks for confirmation and then writes it to production/onboarding/onboard-[role]-[date].md, creating the directory if it does not exist.

Does the onboarding skill work on Windows and macOS?

Yes. The skill instructs the agent to use PowerShell syntax on Windows and POSIX syntax on macOS/Linux, and it inherits the active model and permission mode without weakening sandbox boundaries.
