System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

Understanding complex or undocumented codebases is a major hurdle for developers. This skill automates deep codebase analysis to generate 8 comprehensive documentation files, adapting its output based on whether you need business logic only (Greenfield) or full technical details (Brownfield).

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Path-Aware Documentation: Generate documentation tailored for Greenfield (business logic only) or Brownfield (business logic + technical implementation) scenarios.
  • 8 Comprehensive Docs: Produce detailed files covering functional specifications, data architecture, operations, technical debt, and more.
  • Deep Codebase Analysis: Systematically analyze backend, frontend, infrastructure, and testing aspects to extract all relevant information.
  • Use Case: You need to migrate an old application to a new tech stack (Greenfield) or bring an existing project under spec-driven development (Brownfield). Use this skill to automatically generate a complete set of documentation, providing a clear foundation for your project without manual code digging.
