How does it handle large repositories?

For repositories with over 200 components, it provides token usage warnings. For those with over 500 components, it recommends a phased approach to document core modules first.

Which programming languages are supported?

The skill supports a wide range of languages including Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, Java, C, C++, C#, Kotlin, and PHP.

Does it regenerate the entire wiki every time?

No, it features a smart update system that compares the current git commit hash with the last generation and only updates modules affected by code changes.

What kind of diagrams can I expect?

It generates Mermaid diagrams for module architecture, dependency graphs, and sequence flows to help visualize the system structure.

学习与文档

Generates and maintains comprehensive wiki-style documentation for multi-language repositories using AST-aware structural analysis.

This skill automates the creation of high-quality technical documentation by performing deep Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) analysis on your codebase. It identifies key components, maps relationships, and clusters code into logical modules to generate a searchable Markdown wiki complete with Mermaid architectural diagrams. Whether you are onboarding new developers to a legacy system or maintaining a live documentation suite, this skill ensures your technical guides stay in sync with the code through smart incremental updates and staleness detection.
