Does my project need to use conventional commits?

While the skill works best with conventional commits to identify feature boundaries, it can still analyze standard commit messages and codebase structure to infer documentation requirements.

What documents does this skill generate?

It generates three main types of documentation: Product Requirement Documents (PRDs) for project overviews, Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) for technical choices, and Product Roadmap Proposals (PRPs) for future work.

Can I limit the scope of the git history analysis?

Yes, you can use the --quick flag to analyze only the last 50 commits, or use the --since DATE flag to analyze history from a specific point in time.

Where does the skill save the generated documents?

The skill follows the Blueprint standard, saving files into docs/prds/, docs/adrs/, and docs/prps/ within your project's root directory.

Learning & Documentation

Retroactively generates PRDs, ADRs, and roadmap proposals by analyzing git history and codebase structure.

This skill enables developers to onboard established projects into the Blueprint development system by automatically extracting historical context from git logs and source code. It identifies feature boundaries, architectural decisions, and technical debt to generate a comprehensive documentation suite. By scoring git history quality and detecting patterns in conventional commits, it creates accurate Product Requirement Documents (PRDs) and Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) that would otherwise require hours of manual research.
