Add Frontmatter
Scan every .md file in the project and ensure it has the required frontmatter so Reflex can discover and route it.
Required frontmatter format
---
summary: One-line description of what this file covers
read_when:
- keyword or phrase that signals this file is relevant
- another keyword
---
What to skip
- Files already having correct
summary + read_when frontmatter — leave them alone
- Files that have frontmatter with any other keys (e.g.
name, description, title) — do not replace or merge, leave them alone
node_modules/, .git/, dist/, build/, vendor/, __pycache__/
.claude/ — agents, skills, commands, hooks all use their own frontmatter schemas
- Files that are purely generated output, changelogs, or boilerplate with no reusable knowledge (e.g.
CHANGELOG.md, LICENSE)
Process
- Glob all
.md files, excluding skip dirs
- For each file: check if frontmatter with
summary and read_when already exists
- If missing or incomplete: read the file content, infer a concise
summary and 2-4 read_when keywords from the actual content
- Prepend the frontmatter block (or insert after existing
--- if only partially present)
- Write the updated file
Quality criteria
summary is a single line, factual, specific — describes what the file actually covers
read_when keywords match how someone would describe a task that needs this file (e.g. "setting up auth", "debugging routing", "OpenClaw plugin")
- Don't invent knowledge not in the file — infer from actual content only
