How does this skill improve onboarding speed?

By implementing progressive disclosure and scaffolding, it replaces unstructured mentoring with clear, self-service validation checkpoints, resulting in a 3-8x faster ramp-up.

What are the Day-1, Week-1, and Month-1 paths?

These are standardized templates: Day-1 focuses on setup and first contribution (4-8h), Week-1 on architecture (20-40h), and Month-1 on domain expertise and mentoring (40-160h).

What is the Knowledge Transfer skill for Claude Code?

It is a specialized capability that provides a structured methodology for onboarding and knowledge sharing, using time-boxed paths to help new developers reach productivity faster.

Is this skill language-specific?

No, the methodology is 95% transferable across any software project, including Go, Rust, Python, and TypeScript environments.
