Prime

Execute the following steps to understand the codebase structure, then summarize your understanding.

Instructions

This skill takes no parameters. It primes the agent with knowledge about the project.

1. List Project Files: Run git ls-files to see all tracked files in the project
2. Read README: Read the README.md file in the root of the project
   • If README.md is not found, report "README.md not found"
3. Validate Prerequisites:
   • If section ## pre-requisites or ## prerequisites exists in README.md:
     • Execute all commands in that section to validate the prerequisites are satisfied
   • Else: Report "section ## pre-requisites not found"
4. Run Installation:
   • If section ## installation exists in README.md:
     • Execute all commands in that section
   • Else: Report "section ## installation not found"
5. Build Project:
   • If section ## build exists in README.md:
     • Execute all commands in that section
   • Else: Report "section ## build not found"

Summary Format

After completing all steps, provide a summary that includes:

• Project name and description
• Programming language(s) and frameworks used
• Key directories and their purposes
• Build system and tools
• Prerequisites status (all met or issues found)
• Installation status (successful or issues)
• Build status (successful or issues)
• Any important patterns or conventions observed
