project-guidelisted

Generate a comprehensive, point-in-time guide to ANY project at ANY stage — what it is and does right now (purpose, capabilities, architecture), the history of how it was built (big PRs, decisions, why-we-chose-X, tradeoffs), the concepts/vocabulary to discuss it fluently, and a candid recruiter/interview lens (what reads strong vs weak to a hiring manager who pokes at the repo, and how to talk about it). Built to help me learn and to be interview-ready about my own work. Saves to a dated file. Use when I want to understand, document, or prep to talk about a project as a whole — not a single session. Triggers on "project guide", "explain this whole project", "portfolio brief", "interview-prep me on this repo", "/project-guide".

# project-guide — the whole-project brief, history, and interview lens Produce one document that lets me (a) understand a project end-to-end in its current state, (b) tell the story of how and why it was built the way it was, (c) build the vocabulary and mental models to discuss it fluently, and (d) walk into a conversation with a recruiter or hiring manager who has the repo open and hold my own — knowing both what looks good and what doesn't, and how to talk about each honestly. **Project-agnostic. Stage-agnostic.** Works on a 2-day-old scaffold or a 2-year-old codebase; scale the depth to what's actually there (see Scaling). Work only from observable state — the repo, its git/PR history, its docs. Never invent decisions or capabilities; an honest "not yet built" beats a confident fiction (a hiring manager will run the code). ## Relationship to sibling specs - `/wrap` — recaps **one session**; this recaps the **whole project**. - `kickoff` — briefs a project at its **start**; this briefs it at **any point**. - [[narrate]] — the audio engine; `--audio` here narrates the talking-points section so I can rehearse the pitch by ear. ## Parse `$ARGUMENTS` - `--quick` → lighter pass: Snapshot + Capabilities + Architecture + a short recruiter lens. Skip the deep history mining. Good for small/early projects or a fast refresher. - `--update` → a guide already exists for this project (find the latest in the save dir): refresh it, focusing on what changed since its date, and
