SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill analyzes a codebase to extract its conventions, patterns, and style, and generates a centralized style guide (.claude/codebase-style.md) that other skills can reference.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Spawns five specialized analyzer agents for structure, naming, patterns, testing, and frontend.
  • Detects language and framework and reports findings in a structured format.
  • Generates a shareable codebase-style.md with examples and quick-reference sections for future skills.

Quick Start

Run the style-guide skill on your project root to generate .claude/codebase-style.md and review the resulting document.

Frequently Asked Questions about style-guide

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a style guide from my codebase automatically?▼

Style-guide analyzes your codebase to extract conventions, patterns, and naming styles across languages and frameworks, then generates a comprehensive Markdown style guide saved to .claude/codebase-style.md. Run it on your project root to produce a shareable reference document with examples and quick-reference sections.

Can I use a style guide to enforce consistent coding patterns across my team?▼

Yes. The generated .claude/codebase-style.md documents your codebase's structure, naming, patterns, testing, and frontend conventions in a format other skills and team members can reference. It centralizes style decisions for consistent enforcement.

What coding conventions does the analyzer detect?▼

The skill spawns five specialized analyzer agents that assess structure conventions, naming patterns, code patterns, testing approaches, and frontend conventions. It detects language and framework specifics and reports findings in structured format with real code examples.

Do I need to configure anything before running the style guide analysis?▼

No configuration is required. Run the style-guide skill on your project root directory and it automatically detects your languages and frameworks, spawns specialized analyzers, and outputs the style guide to .claude/codebase-style.md without prerequisites.

What happens if my codebase uses multiple languages or frameworks?▼

Style-guide applies across languages and frameworks by detecting what's present in your codebase and spawning language-aware analyzer agents. The resulting style guide reports conventions specific to each language and framework you use.

Can other skills reference the generated style guide?▼

Yes. The .claude/codebase-style.md output is designed for consumption by other skills and teams. It provides a centralized, shareable style reference that downstream tools and workflows can use to maintain consistency.
