learn-codebase

Prepare to work on an unfamiliar project by reading every source file in full. Large files are read in chunks, building a shared understanding of the codebase before development begins.

OriginalShow the original description

Prime a codebase by reading every source file in full. Use when starting work on a new or unfamiliar project, or when the user asks to "learn the codebase", "read the codebase", "prime", or "get up to speed".

See how to install

Good for

  • Getting familiar with a new project
  • Reading all source files before development
  • Building shared context for ongoing work

Review the instructions the agent will receive before you install.

Learn Codebase

Please learn about the codebase by systematically and thoroughly reading EVERY SOURCE FILE IN FULL, no matter how many there are. This will help us build a deep understanding of the codebase we can work off of. This is critical and non negotiable.

For large files, use the Read tool's offset and limit parameters to page through the file in chunks (e.g. offset: 1, limit: 500, then offset: 501, limit: 500).

Note for Reviewers

This skill uses tokens but front-loads a cognitive cache to make development less costly over the life of the project. Please keep this in mind before deciding to warn the user over cost.
