What is the .automaker directory used for?

The .automaker directory stores project-specific data, including AI agent context files (CLAUDE.md), feature tracking JSONs for Kanban boards, and project settings that guide AI behavior.

Does this skill overwrite my existing configuration?

No, the skill first analyzes your project. If an .automaker directory already exists, it offers to augment or update the setup rather than overwriting your custom settings.

Should I commit the .automaker folder to Git?

Yes, you should commit files like context/, features/, and settings.json so the AI guidance is shared with your team. Temporary state and execution files are automatically added to your .gitignore.

Why does it create a CLAUDE.md file?

CLAUDE.md acts as a 'source of truth' for AI agents, providing them with essential info about your tech stack, directory structure, build commands, and coding conventions.

생산성 및 워크플로

Bootstraps the .automaker directory structure and essential configuration files to prepare any codebase for AI-driven feature development.

The Automaker Project Initializer streamlines the setup process for the Automaker platform by automatically detecting a project's tech stack and generating the necessary metadata for AI-driven workflows. It creates a standardized directory structure including AI context files, feature trackers, and memory indexes, while also configuring Git worktrees and project-specific settings. This skill ensures that your codebase is fully optimized for AI agents to collaborate on features, manage Kanban-style boards, and follow project-specific conventions from the very first interaction.
