Can it help with Docker-based projects?

Yes, it identifies Dockerfiles, docker-compose.yml files, and .devcontainer configurations to include container-specific setup instructions in the documentation.

Where does the skill look for startup commands?

It analyzes package.json scripts, Makefiles, and existing README files to determine the correct commands for installing dependencies and starting the development server.

Does it extract sensitive information from .env files?

No, it specifically looks for template files like .env.example or .env.sample to list required configuration keys without exposing actual sensitive values or secrets.

How does this skill detect project dependencies?

It scans for standard lockfiles and configuration files such as package-lock.json, yarn.lock, Cargo.toml, and requirements.txt to identify the active package manager and ecosystem.

What programming languages does it support?

The skill is language-agnostic and detects setup patterns for various ecosystems including JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, Ruby, Rust, and Go.

Generates comprehensive environment setup guides by automatically analyzing repository structure and configuration files.

关于

Documenting Setup is a specialized Claude Code skill designed to streamline the onboarding process for developers by automating the creation of environment setup documentation. By scanning codebase artifacts such as package managers, tool version files, and environment templates, it intelligently identifies dependencies, required tools like Node.js or Python versions, environment variables, and essential startup commands. This ensures that project setup instructions are consistently accurate, helping teams reduce setup friction and maintain up-to-date documentation as the tech stack evolves.
