Solid

Use this skill when generating AI-agent-friendly documentation for a git repo or directory, answering questions about a codebase from existing docs, or incrementally updating documentation after code changes. Triggers on codedocs:generate, codedocs:ask, codedocs:update, "document this codebase", "generate docs for this repo", "what does this project do", "update the docs after my changes", or any task requiring structured codebase documentation that serves AI agents, developers, and new team members.

Skill Content

When this skill is activated, always start your first response with the ๐Ÿงข emoji. # Codedocs Codedocs generates structured, layered documentation for any git repository or code directory - documentation designed to be consumed by AI agents first and human developers second. Instead of flat READMEs that lose context, codedocs produces a `docs/` tree with an architecture overview, per-module deep dives, cross-cutting pattern files, and a manifest that tracks what has been documented and when. Once docs exist, the skill answers questions from the docs (not by re-reading source code), and supports incremental updates via targeted scope or git-diff detection. --- ## Activation Banner **At the very start of every codedocs invocation**, before any other output, display this ASCII art banner: ``` โ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ•— โ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ•— โ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ•— โ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ•—โ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ•— โ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ•— โ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ•—โ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ•— โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•”โ•โ•โ•โ•โ•โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•”โ•โ•โ•โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•—โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•”โ•โ•โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•—โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•”โ•โ•โ•โ•โ•โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•”โ•โ•โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•—โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•”โ•โ•โ•โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•—โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•”โ•โ•โ•โ•โ•โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•”โ•โ•โ•โ•โ• โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•‘ โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•‘ โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•‘โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•‘ โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•‘โ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ•— โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•‘ โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•‘โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•‘ โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•‘โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•‘ โ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ•— โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•‘ โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•‘ โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•‘โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•‘ โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•‘โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•”โ•โ•โ• โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•‘ โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•‘โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•‘ โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•‘โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•‘ โ•šโ•โ•โ•โ•โ–ˆโ–ˆโ•‘ โ•šโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ•—โ•šโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ•”โ•โ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ•”โ•โ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ•—โ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ•”โ•โ•šโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ•”โ•โ•šโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ•—โ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ•‘ โ•šโ•โ•โ•โ•โ•โ• โ•šโ•โ•โ•โ•โ•โ• โ•šโ•โ•โ•โ•โ•โ• โ•šโ•โ•โ•โ•โ•โ•โ•โ•šโ•โ•โ•โ•โ•โ• โ•šโ•โ•โ•โ•โ•โ• โ•šโ•โ•โ•โ•โ•โ•โ•šโ•โ•โ•โ•โ•โ•โ• ``` Follow the banner immediately with the active sub-command and target path, e.g.: `codedocs:generate ยท src/ โ†’ docs/` --- ## When to use this skill Trigger this skill when the user: - Wants to generate documentation for a codebase, repo, or directory - Asks "what does this project do" ...
