Practical Claude Code skills born from real production projects, not templates.
The fastest way to understand an unfamiliar codebase with Claude Code.
npx skills add Wubabalala/claude-skills@project-onboardingThen in Claude Code:
/onboard
You join a new project. You spend hours reading scattered docs, guessing build commands, figuring out which configs matter. Existing "onboarding" tools dump a directory listing and call it done.
Phase 0: Detect & Scan
├── Finds existing AI files (CLAUDE.md, .cursorrules, AGENTS.md, .windsurfrules...)
├── Scans project structure coarse-to-fine (type → scale → key info)
├── Cross-checks docs against code — surfaces stale commands, wrong ports, outdated claims
└── You decide: keep / patch / rebuild / skip each file
Phase 1: Generate Core Docs
├── CLAUDE.md — every claim backed by a source file path
├── Per-module CLAUDE.md (monorepo auto-detected)
├── docs/OVERVIEW.md — one-page project navigator
└── Security scan blocks writes if credentials detected
Phase 2: Deep Dive (optional)
├── Recommends dimensions based on what it found (deploy scripts → ask about deployment)
├── Asks "WHY was it designed this way?" — captures what code can't tell you
└── Writes memory files with clear fact vs user-knowledge separation
Code tells you what exists. It doesn't tell you:
- Why there are two auth systems (legal required SSO for one, JWT for the other)
- Why deploys must run macOS before Windows
- Which config change broke prod last month
- That the
testscript in package.json hasn't worked since the migration
This skill extracts facts from code, then asks you the questions that matter.
| project-onboarding (this) | agent-studio | goodvibes | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Detects existing AI files | 8 tools (.cursorrules, AGENTS.md, .windsurfrules...) | memory dir only | no |
| Finds stale/wrong docs | yes, cross-checks against code | no | no |
| Fixes stale docs | Patch mode (targeted before/after diffs) | no | no |
| Captures domain knowledge | Phase 2: asks "why", separates facts from context | no | no |
| Security scan | blocks writes if passwords/keys/IPs found | no | no |
| Monorepo support | auto-detected, per-module CLAUDE.md | no | partial |
| Source code safety | Source Zone / Doc Zone model, never touches code | not defined | not defined |
After running /onboard on a microservices project:
Scan Results
Project type: Java (Spring Cloud) + Next.js + Python (FastAPI)
Scale: 1,247 files, 7 modules
Build tools: Maven, pnpm, uv
Existing AI files:
CLAUDE.md (root) — Covers: build commands | Missing: service topology, deployment
.cursorrules — Covers: code style | Conflict: claims React, project uses Vue
Conflicts: 1 found
.cursorrules says "React", package.json has "vue": "^3.4" → Which is correct? [Code] / [Doc]
Recommended actions:
1. CLAUDE.md — [Keep & enhance] / [Patch conflicts] / [Rebuild] / [Skip]?
2. .cursorrules — [Merge into CLAUDE.md] / [Ignore]?
3. docs/OVERVIEW.md — [Generate] / [Skip]?
- Code is fact, documentation is claim — conflicts surfaced, user decides
- Source-safe — never modifies source code or configs; only writes doc files
- User confirms all writes — nothing touches disk without approval
- Template is maximum, not minimum — sections skipped if not applicable
- Ask "why", not "what" — code scanning is commodity; asking the right questions is the value
Browser automation that goes beyond recording — render diagrams, automate interactions, export screenshots.
npx skills add Wubabalala/claude-skills@playwright-web-automation| Mode | When to use | How it works |
|---|---|---|
| A: Record | Unknown page, need to explore | npx playwright codegen <URL> → paste recorded code → parameterize |
| B: Direct | Known workflow or render-to-image | Write script directly, skip recording |
- Web interaction — fill forms, click buttons, navigate multi-step flows, handle login state
- Diagram rendering — Mermaid, custom HTML/SVG → high-res PNG export
- Canvas export — extract rendered content from Canvas elements (even inside iframes)
- Screenshot automation — full page, element-level, or high-DPI (2x) capture
SKILL.md (decide which path → skeleton steps)
├── references/render-to-image.md (setContent + CDN rendering patterns)
├── references/export-strategies.md (screenshot / Canvas / download)
├── references/iframe-and-canvas.md (cross-origin iframe, contentFrame)
├── references/wait-strategies.md (condition-based waiting, avoid sleep)
├── references/troubleshooting.md (common errors + fixes)
├── templates/skeleton.mjs (starter script with both paths)
└── examples/
├── diagramgpt.mjs (full: iframe + follow-up forms + Canvas)
└── mermaid-render.mjs (full: CDN Mermaid → batch PNG)
- Two paths, one skeleton — recording is optional, not mandatory
- Headless by default —
headless: truefor batch/render tasks,falsefor debugging - Reference on demand — main doc stays under 120 lines; details loaded when needed
- Real examples — both examples are production-tested, not toy code
