"Scans for project documentation files (AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, GEMINI.md, COPILOT.md, CURSOR.md, WARP.md, and 15+ other formats) and synthesizes guidance. Auto-activates when user asks to review, understand, or explore a codebase, when starting work in a new project, when asking about conventions or agents, or when documentation context would help. Can consolidate multiple platform docs into unified AGENTS.md."

We need to produce a 2-3 sentence plain-text summary, objective, factual, no marketing language, no superlatives, no calls to action. At most 60 words. Must be plain text, no markdown formatting, no bullet points, no headings, no quotes. Just the summary text. We need to explain what the skill does, what problem it solves, when to use it. Let's craft ~45 words. Sentence 1: The skill scans a project for documentation files such as AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, etc., and compiles their contents into a unified summary.
Documentation Scanner
Scan for and synthesize project documentation.
When to Activate
- User asks to review, understand, or explore a codebase
- Starting work in a new/unfamiliar project
- User asks about project conventions or workflows
- Before making significant architectural decisions
Instructions
Step 1: Scan for Documentation
Use Glob to search project root:
AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, AI.md, ASSISTANT.md,
GEMINI.md, COPILOT.md, CHATGPT.md, CODEIUM.md,
CURSOR.md, WINDSURF.md, VSCODE.md, JETBRAINS.md,
WARP.md, FIG.md, DEVCONTAINER.md, GITPOD.mdStep 2: Read All Found Files
Read complete contents of every documentation file found.
Step 3: Synthesize
Combine information into unified summary:
PROJECT DOCUMENTATION
Sources: [list files found]
RECOMMENDED AGENTS
Primary: [agents for core work]
Secondary: [agents for specific tasks]
KEY WORKFLOWS
[consolidated workflows]
CONVENTIONS
[code style, patterns]
QUICK COMMANDS
[common commands]Step 4: Offer Consolidation
If 2+ documentation files exist, offer to consolidate:
- Create
.doc-archive/directory - Archive originals with date suffix
- Generate unified AGENTS.md
- Report what was consolidated
Step 5: No Documentation Found
If none found, offer to generate AGENTS.md based on:
- Project structure and tech stack
- Patterns observed in codebase
Priority Order
- AGENTS.md (platform-agnostic)
- CLAUDE.md (Claude-specific)
- Other AI docs
- IDE docs
- Terminal docs
