Documentation & Writing
Signed by SkilVault

Turns an unfamiliar repository checkout into a written, evidence-cited briefing covering project layout, the toolchain read from manifest files, documented contributor rules, recurring code habits, and the maintainers' issue and pull-request template and label conventions. Produces one markdown briefing outside the studied repository and returns a short summary to the caller. Use when the user asks to onboard onto, summarize, audit the conventions of, or hand off a codebase that exists on the local machine. Not for editing code, debugging, running builds or tests, or studying repositories that are not locally available.
