System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the inclusion of timestamped, git-backed metadata into documentation, ensuring traceability for research notes, handoffs, and specifications.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated Metadata: Generate date/time, repository name, current branch, and commit hash for YAML frontmatter.
  • Frontmatter Insertion: Produce a ready-to-insert YAML header (date, git_commit, branch, repository, last_updated).
  • Use Case: Attach consistent metadata to thoughts, handoffs, or implementation plans to improve collaboration and traceability.

Quick Start

Use the Spec Metadata Generator to create metadata for a document such as thoughts/shared/research/summary.md and insert it into the file's YAML frontmatter.
