fd-explore-repo

Overview

Use this skill to understand a repository's structure before planning implementation work. It guides you through a systematic exploration of the codebase to gather the context needed for accurate planning.

Steps

Read the root listing with list_files(".").
Read README.md (or README.rst) if present.
Read the primary package manifest (pyproject.toml, package.json, pom.xml, go.mod, etc.) to understand the tech stack and deps.
List the main source directory (e.g. src/, lib/, app/).
Read any CONTRIBUTING.md or DEVELOPMENT.md for local conventions.
Summarize: repo purpose, tech stack, key directories, test framework.

Notes

Be surgical — do not read every file. Focus on structure and config.
Stop exploring once you have enough context to write a complete plan.
