SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill solves the friction of adopting the ai-factory toolkit by automating the creation of essential configuration files and documentation, preventing the need for manual setup of workspace maps and domain experts.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated Drafting: Scans existing codebases to draft workspace-CLAUDE.md, .aif/config.yml, and domain-specific experts.
  • Evidence-Based Analysis: Infers project structure, conventions, and domains directly from source code and manifests rather than making assumptions.
  • Review-First Workflow: Produces all outputs as drafts for human verification, ensuring accuracy and alignment with existing project standards.

Quick Start

Run the onboard skill in the root directory of your project to generate the initial configuration drafts for human review.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate repository onboarding and configuration scaffolding for a new codebase?

Automating repository onboarding requires scanning existing source code and dependency manifests to draft essential configuration files and workspace documentation. This process generates configuration surfaces and domain experts based on actual project structure rather than assumptions.

How does automated onboarding analyze existing project structure and conventions?

Automated onboarding analyzes project structure by surveying source code, documentation, and configuration files via local filesystem read access. It infers conventions and domains directly from dependency manifests, producing evidence-based configuration drafts for human verification.

Do I need read access to my local filesystem to scan and draft configuration files?

Yes, you need local filesystem read access to survey source code, documentation, and project configuration files. This access is required to analyze existing repository structures and dependency manifests for drafting configuration surfaces and domain experts.

Does the onboarding process modify existing repository files or only generate drafts?

The onboarding process only generates drafts for human verification, ensuring alignment with existing project standards. It produces workspace maps and configuration files as review-first outputs without modifying existing source code or repository files.

What configuration files are generated when scaffolding workspace documentation for an existing codebase?

Scaffolding workspace documentation generates workspace-CLAUDE.md, .aif/config.yml, and domain-specific experts. These configuration surfaces are drafted based on evidence from the repository structure and dependency manifests.

When should I use automated scaffolding instead of manual configuration setup?

Automated scaffolding is suited for initial toolkit adoption scenarios where manual setup of workspace documentation and config files is required. It reduces friction by drafting configuration surfaces and domain experts based on actual codebase analysis.
