What problem does it solve?
Manually setting up a new construction project requires hours of tedious work to inventory scattered documents, classify drawings and specifications by type, and integrate project context into agent configuration files, leading to avoidable errors and delayed downstream construction workflows.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Automated Document Inventory & Classification: Scans project directories to identify and categorize drawings, specifications, schedules, submittal logs, RFI logs, and change orders using filename and folder pattern matching, with no vision processing required.
- Dual Operational Mode Support: Automatically detects whether the project uses AgentCM mode (with a .construction/ directory) or flat file mode, adapting workflow steps to match the existing project setup and available indexes.
- Automatic CLAUDE.md Enrichment: Appends structured construction project context to the project root's CLAUDE.md file to enable seamless execution of downstream construction management skills like spec-splitter and sheet-splitter.
- Use Case: For a new commercial construction project with hundreds of PDF drawing sets, bound specification manuals, and schedule files, use this skill to quickly organize all documents, classify them by type, and add the necessary context to CLAUDE.md so downstream skills can run immediately without manual configuration.
Quick Start
Use the project-setup skill to inventory and classify all documents in your construction project directory and append the required context to your project's CLAUDE.md file.
