SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Automatically generate a structured overview of a project's structure, dependencies, and key files to help quickly understand unfamiliar codebases.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Identify project type from common manifests (package.json, go.mod, Cargo.toml, pyproject.toml/setup.py, pom.xml, Gemfile, *.csproj).
  • Produce a structured summary including architecture, modules, dependencies, entry points, and build/run commands.
  • Use Case: a new developer asks for an overview of a codebase to onboard faster or to document the project.

Quick Start

Use the project-summary skill to generate a summary for the repository you are exploring.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a codebase overview for a new developer onboarding?

To generate a codebase overview, use the project-summary skill to analyze manifests like package.json or go.mod, producing a structured summary of architecture, dependencies, entry points, and build commands for faster onboarding.

What's the best way to summarize a software project structure and dependencies?

The best way to summarize a software project structure is to identify common manifests such as Cargo.toml or pom.xml, then extract dependencies, modules, and entry points into a structured, buildable overview of the codebase.

Can I get an architectural understanding of an unfamiliar codebase automatically?

Yes, you can get an architectural understanding of an unfamiliar codebase automatically by applying the project-summary skill, which parses manifests like pyproject.toml and Gemfile to output a structured overview of key files and modules.

Does project summary work with multiple programming languages and build manifests?

Project summary works with multiple programming languages by detecting common build manifests including package.json, go.mod, Cargo.toml, pyproject.toml, setup.py, pom.xml, Gemfile, and *.csproj files to identify project type and dependencies.

When do I need to document a codebase and its entry points?

You need to document a codebase and its entry points when onboarding new developers or understanding unfamiliar repositories, using the project-summary skill to produce a structured overview of architecture, dependencies, and build commands.

How does identifying manifests help answer questions about a codebase?

Identifying manifests like package.json or pom.xml helps answer codebase questions by revealing the project type, dependency tree, and entry points, which are then structured into a buildable overview for architectural understanding and documentation.
