Capture Knowledge

Skill Verified Active
Part of:Swe Skills

Audits a repository's code and docs to find important conventions, workflows, and architectural decisions that are missing from agent-facing guidance, then drafts review-ready updates. Use when a user says `capture repo knowledge`, `document implicit conventions`, `turn repo patterns into agent rules`, or asks what future agents should remember about a codebase. Do NOT use for a generic repo tour, onboarding walkthrough, or architecture summary that does not need reusable guidance updates.

Purpose

To convert implicit knowledge within a codebase into explicit, reusable guidance for AI agents, ensuring they can reliably understand and adhere to repository conventions and decisions.

Features

  • Audits repo conventions and architectural decisions
  • Compares repo reality to existing agent guidance
  • Identifies and drafts missing knowledge gaps
  • Creates review-ready update packets
  • Pauses for explicit user review before saving

Use Cases

  • Capture undocumented repo conventions
  • Turn repeated implementation patterns into reusable agent guidance
  • Find what current rules or skills are missing
  • Draft agent-facing guidance updates before saving

Non-Goals

  • Generic repo orientation reports
  • Broad architecture reviews without guidance updates
  • Human-facing documentation rewrite
  • Automatic write-back without explicit review

Pathfinder

100

Map a codebase into feature-grouped flowcharts, identify duplicated concerns across features, and propose a unified architecture. Use when asked to "find the ideal path," unify duplicated systems, or audit architecture before a refactor. Emits a proposed unified flowchart plus per-system /make-plan prompts.

Metal

100

Extract the conceptual essence of a repository as skills, agents, and teams — the project's roles, procedures, and coordination patterns expressed as agentskills.io-standard definitions. Reads an arbitrary codebase and produces generalized definitions that capture WHAT the project does and WHO operates it, without replicating HOW it does it. Use when onboarding to a new codebase and wanting to understand its conceptual architecture, when bootstrapping an agentic system from an existing project, when studying a project's organizational DNA for cross-pollination, or when creating a skill/agent/team library inspired by a reference implementation.

Lean Ctx

100

Context Runtime for AI Agents — 59 MCP tools, 10 read modes, 95+ shell patterns, tree-sitter AST for 18 languages. Compresses LLM context by up to 99%. Use when reading files, running shell commands, searching code, or exploring directories. Auto-installs if not present.

Codacy Audit

100

Codacy Cloud workflow for this repository -- run Codacy's analyzers locally before `git push` (mirrors what Codacy CI runs), and fetch/cluster Codacy issues for any PR via the v3 API. Use when the user mentions Codacy, "codacy analysis", `codacy-analysis-cli`, "codacy issues on PR", "fix codacy CI", "codacy markdownlint findings", or any Codacy gate failing on a netdata-org PR. Ships scripts analyze-local.sh (docker/binary runner for codacy-analysis-cli) and pr-issues.sh (paginated v3 issue fetch + group-by tool/pattern/severity/file). Token-safe -- CODACY_TOKEN never reaches assistant-visible stdout. Read-only by design in the current SOW; write actions (mark FP, mark fixed) are deferred.
