Code Practices and Pattern Understanding Capabillity

What problem does it solve?

This Skill solves the challenge of understanding complex code patterns, conventions, and best practices in established projects. It provides immediate access to implementation guidelines so you can write code that fits perfectly with existing architecture.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Pattern Reference Library: Contains detailed guides for 13 different artifact types (controllers, entities, use-cases, etc.).
• Smart Reading Order: Provides a fallback strategy for reading files when additional context is needed.
• Artifact-Specific Rules: Each reference includes exact implementation patterns, required imports, and file locations.
• Use Case: When tasked with adding a new feature to a DDD project, use this Skill to understand exactly how to create a new entity, value object, use case, repository, and controller that follow the project's established patterns.

Quick Start

Before implementing any feature, activate this skill and consult the relevant reference file. For example, to create a new controller:

1. Read .claude/skills/code_understander/references/controller.reference.md
2. Follow the exact pattern for NestJS controllers with OpenAPI decorators
3. Use the provided reference files as templates
4. Place the file in the correct location: src/http/[module]/controllers/[name].controller.ts

This ensures your code matches the project's conventions perfectly.
