SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps an AI quickly build a reliable mental model of a repository so it can explain what exists, what is partially implemented, what is missing, and what is blocked.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Repository survey: Identify the project structure, entry points, and important documentation.
  • Source-of-truth reading: Prioritize manifests, architecture files, core logic, config, and tests to understand the real state of the codebase.
  • Gap analysis: Distinguish working features from placeholders, shells, and unfinished work.
  • Use case: Ask it to inspect a repo before fixing bugs, planning changes, onboarding, or auditing implementation completeness.

Quick Start

Use the repo-inspection skill to analyze this repository and summarize what is built, partial, missing, and blocked.

FAQPage Schema
How do I analyze a codebase to understand its architecture and entry points?

To analyze a codebase, inspect repository manifests, core logic, configuration, and tests to map project structure and identify entry points for a reliable architecture review.

What is the best way to check implementation status and find missing features in a repository?

Checking implementation status requires reading source-of-truth files to perform gap analysis, distinguishing working repository features from placeholders, shells, and unfinished code.

How do I speed up codebase onboarding for a new developer?

Codebase onboarding accelerates by surveying repository documentation and core logic to build a mental model of what exists, what is partially implemented, and what is blocked.

Does an architecture audit detect placeholder code in a repository?

An architecture audit detects placeholder code by prioritizing source-of-truth reading of manifests and tests, separating real repository functionality from shells and unfinished work.

Can I use repository inspection to review implementation completeness before planning changes?

Repository inspection reviews implementation completeness by reading manifests, configuration, and tests, allowing you to map the codebase and verify what is built before planning changes.
