What does the init-repo skill do?

It automates the configuration of a GoodDocs documentation repository, including setting up schemas, folders, and repository metadata through an interactive prompt.

Does it handle folder renaming?

Yes, it automatically renames the default documentation root to your specified directory name and updates all internal links within the README files.

How does it ensure the setup is correct?

The skill runs a built-in Python validation script after configuration to identify and fix any structural issues before finishing the task.

Can I customize the document types?

Absolutely. You can define the display name, key, and root folder for your primary documentation type during the initialization process.
