SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Tailor a bootstrapped repository into a project-specific operating system by capturing intent, constraints, and preferences, then updating docs and generating a repo-local REPO_PROFILE.json. Use only when explicitly invoked.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Context-driven customization: converts generic scaffolds into a canonical repo contract suitable for downstream skills.
  • Documentation governance: updates repo docs (AGENTS.md, ARCHITECTURE.md, CALIBRATION.md, ROADMAP.md) and the local SKILLS routing as needed.
  • Profile generation: creates or updates REPO_PROFILE.json in the repo root and references the global template for guidance.

Quick Start

Start with the vibe-check interview, supply your answers, and allow the agent to apply the updates and generate the REPO_PROFILE.json

FAQPage Schema
How do I turn a bootstrapped repo into a project-specific operating system?▼

To turn a bootstrapped repo into a project-specific operating system, conduct a vibe-check interview to capture intent and constraints, then generate a canonical REPO_PROFILE.json and update governance docs.

How do I generate a REPO_PROFILE.json for repository governance?▼

Generate a REPO_PROFILE.json by completing an intake interview about project preferences and constraints, which translates answers into deterministic updates for repo docs and local SKILLS routing.

What is the best way to customize generic scaffolds for downstream automation skills?▼

Customize generic scaffolds for downstream automation by using context-driven customization to establish a canonical repo contract, ensuring downstream skills execute against stable profile definitions.

Can I use this repo bootstrapping workflow to update architecture and roadmap docs?▼

Yes, repo bootstrapping updates documentation governance by applying deltas to AGENTS.md, ARCHITECTURE.md, CALIBRATION.md, and ROADMAP.md based on your interview answers and project constraints.

Does repo profile management require any dependencies or external tools?▼

Repo profile management requires no external dependencies, operating solely through reading repository structure and conducting an intake interview to output deterministic updates to local documentation.

When should I not use repo bootstrapping and profile generation?▼

You should not use repo bootstrapping and profile generation unless explicitly invoked, as the workflow is designed to tailor existing scaffolds rather than create repositories from scratch.
