SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Automatically generate a complete Blueprint structure from an existing repository, ensuring decisions, ADRs, and governance artifacts are surfaced as a single source of truth and action-ready for onboarding.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Detect repository structure and existing documentation to seed a Blueprint skeleton.
  • Generate ADRs, plan formats, and agent-instruction references, enabling repeatable onboarding.
  • Support iterative onboarding by re-running to refine the Blueprint as the codebase evolves.

Quick Start

Enter plan mode, analyze the repository, and generate the full Blueprint structure for onboarding.

Frequently Asked Questions about blueprint:onboard

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I auto-generate onboarding documentation from an existing repo?▼

To auto-generate onboarding documentation, enter plan mode to analyze repository structure and package metadata. This extracts decisions and generates a complete blueprint with ADRs, plan formats, and agent-instruction references as a single source of truth.

What is a blueprint structure for repository onboarding?▼

A blueprint structure for repository onboarding is a standard file layout that surfaces decisions, ADRs, and governance artifacts as a single source of truth. It includes ADRs, specs, plan formats, and agent-instruction references for action-ready onboarding.

How do I extract ADRs from an existing codebase?▼

To extract ADRs from a codebase, run the blueprint generation process in plan mode. It reads existing documentation and repo structure to identify decisions, then wires up ADRs within a standard file layout linked to specs and agent-instruction references.

Can I regenerate a blueprint as my codebase evolves?▼

Yes, you can regenerate a blueprint as your codebase evolves. The Skill supports iterative onboarding by allowing you to re-run the generation process to refine the Blueprint structure, keeping ADRs and documentation current with repository changes.

Does the blueprint generation handle CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md files?▼

Yes, blueprint generation handles CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md files. The workflow applies specific symlink and detection rules for these files to ensure agent-instruction references are correctly wired into the generated structure.
