| description | Systematically explore and document an unfamiliar codebase by following a structured analysis pipeline. Use this skill when a user asks to explore, analyze, understand, or document an unfamiliar project or codebase. |
Project Explore
Systematically analyze an unfamiliar codebase through five structured phases and persist findings to .docs/.
Analysis Pipeline
Execute each phase in order. After completing each phase, save the output to the corresponding file under .docs/ (create the directory if absent).
| Phase | Output file |
|---|
| 1. System Boundary | .docs/01-system-boundary.md |
| 2. Core Concepts | .docs/02-concepts.md |
| 3. Architecture Design | .docs/03-architecture.md |
| 4. Core Abstractions | .docs/04-abstractions.md |
| 5. Critical Perspective | .docs/05-critical-perspective.md |
After all five phases: generate .docs/index.md - a concise overview that links to the five documents.
See references/prompts.md for the exact analysis prompts in Chinese for each phase.
Output Format per Phase
Each .docs/ file should follow this structure:
# [Phase Name]
> One-sentence summary of the findings.
## [Sub-section per question answered]
...content...
index.md Format
# Project Analysis Index
> One-paragraph executive summary of the entire project.
