What problem does it solve?

This skill makes it easy to read and inspect the source code of libraries pulled from Maven/Gradle dependencies, helping you understand internals without manual digging.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Source retrieval: Downloads the corresponding -sources.jar from Maven Central or configured repositories.
  • Local exploration: Extracts sources to a predictable path like ~/.extractlibs/src/<artifact>-<version>/ for quick exploration.
  • Use Case: Ideal for code reviews, debugging library behavior, and learning how a dependency implements critical features.

Quick Start

Use the skill to download and inspect a library's sources, for example: ~/.extractlibs/download-lib-sources.sh "io.ktor:ktor-client-core:3.3.2"
