System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

Use at the start of any project task to keep CLAUDE.md current with the high-level project state. If CLAUDE.md is missing, the skill prompts initialization rather than creating the file. It also inserts a 'Reflect on changes and update CLAUDE.md' todo at the end of your task backlog before work begins.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Prompts initialization when CLAUDE.md is missing, preventing automatic file creation and honoring user setup.
  • Inserts a reflection todo at the end of the todo list before starting work to ensure documentation is updated.
  • Keeps CLAUDE.md aligned with high-level project state across tasks and teams, improving traceability.

Quick Start

Before starting any task, ensure CLAUDE.md exists at the project root and add the reflection todo to the end of your task list.
