SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Smart Init seeds an Oracle with confirmed, high-quality knowledge by discovering codebase characteristics, mining history, and validating understanding with you, then creates minimal claude.md and seeds the knowledge base.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated discovery of languages, frameworks, conventions, and history
  • Interactive discussion to confirm understanding
  • Seeding Oracle entries: patterns, gotchas, preferences
  • Phase-based onboarding and Context7 integration

Quick Start

Run the discovery script to preview results: python .claude/skills/smart-init/scripts/discover.py --json

Frequently Asked Questions about smart-init

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I initialize a project with contextual knowledge for Claude instead of empty directories?▼

Smart Init automatically discovers your codebase characteristics, documentation, and history, then seeds Oracle with patterns, gotchas, and preferences. Run the discovery script to analyze languages, frameworks, and conventions, then confirm findings through guided discussion before Oracle initialization.

What does the smart initialization process actually discover about my codebase?▼

The discovery phase analyzes languages, frameworks, coding conventions, and project history. It generates JSON outputs showing detected patterns and context, then engages you in discussion to validate understanding before seeding Oracle entries and configuring Context7.

Can I use smart initialization to reset my Oracle knowledge base for an existing project?▼

Yes. Smart Init applies to both new projects and resets. It rebuilds your knowledge base by rediscovering codebase characteristics, mining updated history, and revalidating patterns with you, creating fresh Oracle seeds and minimal claude.md configuration.

How do I get started with the smart initialization process?▼

Run the discovery script to preview results: python .claude/skills/smart-init/scripts/discover.py --json. Review the JSON output showing detected languages and conventions, then proceed through guided discussion to confirm findings before seeding Oracle with validated knowledge.

What artifacts does smart initialization create and how are they used?▼

Smart Init generates Oracle seed files, sessions, timeline records, and minimal claude.md configuration. These artifacts integrate with Context7 and Guardian thresholds, establishing your knowledge base with confirmed patterns and project preferences for ongoing Claude interaction.
