SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Bootstrap Trellis spec guidelines directly from the real codebase, enabling consistent, up-to-date guidance that reflects the current project structure.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automates discovery and documentation of repository architecture and spec boundaries.
  • Produces concrete, project-specific .trellis/spec/ files from actual code and tests.
  • Use Case: When starting a Trellis-driven spec for a new repo or refreshing outdated docs to reflect the latest code changes.

Quick Start

Run the Trellis spec bootstrap agent against the repository to generate or refresh the .trellis/spec/ guidelines.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate Trellis spec guidelines from an existing codebase?▼

To generate Trellis spec guidelines from a codebase, run an automated bootstrap agent that reads actual source code and tests to populate .trellis/spec/ files. This ensures your documentation reflects the current project architecture and boundaries.

What is the best way to keep .trellis/spec documentation up to date with code changes?▼

Keeping .trellis/spec documentation up to date requires refreshing the spec guidelines directly from the latest code changes. Automating this extraction ensures your repository architecture and spec boundaries remain consistent and source-backed.

Can I use codebase analysis to bootstrap Trellis specs across multiple packages and layers?▼

Yes, codebase analysis can bootstrap Trellis specs across multiple packages and layers. The process automates discovery of repository architecture to produce concrete, project-specific .trellis/spec/ files from actual code and tests.

Do I need direct source reads to create concrete Trellis specs?▼

Direct source reads are used alongside GitNexus and ABCoder to produce concrete, source-backed Trellis specs. This combination ensures the generated .trellis/spec/ guidelines are accurately derived from the actual codebase structure.

When should I refresh outdated Trellis-driven spec documentation?▼

You should refresh outdated Trellis-driven spec documentation when the existing .trellis/spec files no longer reflect the latest code changes. Running the bootstrap agent against the repository updates the guidelines to match the current architecture.
