cold-codebase

Analyze any abandoned, legacy, or inherited codebase and produce a Revival Document — a health report, revival plan, and contribution guide in one. Trigger when someone says "analyze this repo," "I inherited this codebase," "is this worth reviving," "help me understand what I've got here," "I found an abandoned repo," "this hasn't been touched in years," "I want to pick up where someone left off," "can this codebase be saved," or shares a GitHub link to a dormant project. Also trigger when someone is taking over a project from a previous dev, inheriting technical debt, or asking "where do I even start" with an existing codebase.
