Codewiki

Generate a structured product knowledge base from codebase scanning. Creates a codewiki/ folder with architecture docs, user flows, API reference, service maps, and more. Also generates CLAUDE.md. Handles single repos, monorepos, and multi-repo microservices. Use when asked to document a project, generate a knowledge base, map architecture, create onboarding docs, or set up CLAUDE.md for a codebase.

# CodeWiki — Product Knowledge Base Generator

Scan code, fetch product context, discover user flows, and generate a structured `codewiki/` knowledge base.

Output templates are in this skill's `templates/` directory. Read each template only when generating that specific file — do NOT load all templates at once.

## HARD RULES

1. **Phase 1 is not optional.** Product context is the difference between a useful wiki and a mechanical code listing. Complete it before scanning. If user can't answer, use the code-first fallback.
2. **Multi-repo workspace must be verified before scanning.** If repos aren't in a shared parent folder, stop and help the user set it up.
3. **Never scan all repos simultaneously.** Use Scan → Write to `_scratch/` → Carry 30-line summary → Next. This is how you survive large multi-repo projects.
4. **Never skip a service in microservices.** User flows that touch 5 services are useless if one is undocumented. Every service gets at least a lightweight scan.
5. **Scan in priority order.** Infrastructure/contracts → gateway → frontends → core business services → supporting services.
6. **Report progress between repos.** Tell the user what you found and which repo is next. Do not ask for permission between repos — just continue. Only pause on errors or contradictions.
7. **On startup, check if `codewiki/_scratch/` exists.** If it does, offer to resume from previous scan data.

Coding Workflow

w93139/coding-workflow

Guide implementation, bug fixes, scripts, and small projects through a proportionate brief, scoped changes, fresh verification, and independent read-only review. Use when Codex is asked to change code; keep tiny edits lightweight and do not activate for explanation-only or review-only requests.

Ask Codex

bookSiYi1412/ask-codex

TRIGGER when: user requests implementation work, repo exploration, data/log inspection, broad codebase search, impact analysis, verification-heavy shell work, or explicitly mentions Codex ("用 codex 做", "让 codex 执行", "ask codex to...", "use codex", "delegate to codex"). Also trigger for heavy internal subtasks that Claude Code might otherwise offload to a lightweight model/Haiku. DO NOT TRIGGER when the task is primarily user-facing product judgment, architecture choice, git/PR/release operations, or requires multi-turn clarification before useful work can begin.
