SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

The Registry Manager automates maintaining an up-to-date skills registry by scanning all SKILL.md files and regenerating skills.json and the indexed registry.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Auto-detect added or removed skills by scanning SKILL.md across the project.
  • Regenerate skills.json and skills-index.json to provide a reliable registry for agents and tooling.
  • Use during project setup, audits, and governance to keep the registry consistent and auditable.

Quick Start

From the project root, run node rebuild-registry.js (in the .claude directory) to regenerate the registry files and log any inconsistencies.
