SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill helps teams identify and apply consistent project-specific conventions across codebases, reducing ambiguity and drift in patterns, practices, and guidelines.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Convention discovery: scans configuration files (eslint/prettier/python configs, editorconfig, tsconfig.json, README guidelines) and repository structure to surface implicit conventions.
  • Pattern enforcement: provides a practical checklist and recommended patterns for naming, file organization, and contribution guidelines to align multiple modules.
  • Guided adoption: generates actionable steps to integrate discovered conventions into new and existing projects, ensuring uniformity across teams.

Quick Start

Identify and apply project conventions in the current codebase.

FAQPage Schema
How do I standardize codebase conventions across multiple modules?

To discover project conventions, scan configuration files like eslint, prettier, tsconfig.json, and editorconfig alongside repository structures. This surfaces implicit patterns and generates a practical checklist to align code across modules.

Why does my codebase have inconsistent naming and structure patterns?

Inconsistent naming and structure patterns occur when implicit conventions drift across modules. Scanning configuration files and repository structures surfaces these patterns, providing a structured discovery process to enforce uniform practices and reduce drift.

Can I use this to enforce linting and documentation patterns for different programming languages?

Yes, this targets codebases across multiple programming languages by scanning common configuration files and documentation. It discovers and applies conventions for naming, structure, and guidelines regardless of the specific language used.

What is the best way to align contribution guidelines across existing repositories?

The best way to align contribution guidelines is through guided adoption, which generates actionable steps to integrate discovered conventions into existing projects. This enforces discovered patterns and structured checklists to ensure uniformity across teams.

Does codebase convention discovery work without explicit configuration files?

Codebase convention discovery relies on scanning common config files, directory structures, and documentation. If explicit configurations are missing, the process uses repository structure and documentation to surface implicit conventions and provide actionable guidance.
