How does this help with AI-assisted development?

By creating a structured map of your project, Claude can better understand your specific patterns and constraints, leading to more accurate and context-aware code generation in future sessions.

Where does this skill store the generated documentation?

All documentation is saved as Markdown files within the .sdd/codebase/ directory of your project using uppercase naming conventions like ARCHITECTURE.md and STACK.md.

Does it document every single dependency in my project?

No, to keep documentation readable and actionable, it specifically focuses on the 5-10 most critical dependencies rather than listing every minor package entry.

What specific areas of a codebase can this skill analyze?

It focuses on four primary areas: Technology (stack and integrations), Architecture (design and structure), Conventions (style and testing), and Security (vulnerabilities and concerns).

Learning & Documentation

Generates comprehensive, structured documentation for codebases across architecture, tech stack, security, and development conventions.

This skill empowers Claude to perform deep codebase analysis and produce standardized documentation stored within a dedicated .sdd/codebase/ directory. By routing through four specialized focus areas—technology, architecture, conventions, and security—it generates eight actionable documents that capture the current state of a project, from system design and data flow to technical debt and security vulnerabilities. It is particularly useful for onboarding new developers, auditing legacy systems, or establishing clear architectural patterns for future AI-assisted code generation.
