About
The Archaeologist skill helps developers navigate complex codebases by mapping the evolution of implementation patterns. It intelligently detects outdated practices and compares them against modern project standards, helping teams decide whether to execute a global refactor or maintain local consistency to prevent technical debt. By automating the identification of legacy debt and facilitating the creation of Architectural Decision Records (ADRs), it ensures that refactoring efforts are deliberate, documented, and strategically aligned with the project's long-term health.
