Where are the discoveries stored?

Discoveries are saved in Markdown files within your feature's context directory and can be indexed into a global knowledge base for cross-project reference.

Does it work automatically or manually?

Both. It includes a SessionEnd hook that captures changes automatically at the end of a session, but can also be triggered manually for an interactive review of findings.

How does this skill detect new patterns?

It analyzes git diffs for structural changes, such as new abstractions, interfaces, or folder structures, and compares them against existing project context to identify novel approaches.

Can I use it for dependency auditing?

Yes, it specifically parses files like package.json, requirements.txt, and go.mod to report on added, removed, or updated packages and their likely purpose.

Productivity & Workflow

Identifies new libraries, architectural patterns, and coding conventions from git diffs to maintain an automated project knowledge base.

The discover-patterns skill streamlines technical documentation and knowledge management by analyzing git commits and diffs to capture evolving project standards. It scans for new dependencies, structural design patterns, and shifts in naming or folder conventions, allowing developers to either confirm these changes interactively or save them automatically as pending discoveries. By indexing confirmed findings in a central knowledge base, it ensures that best practices and architectural decisions are preserved and remain searchable for future feature planning and cross-project reuse.
