README
Repository Explorer
Quickly understand an unfamiliar project without reading every file yourself.
Helpful when
- You need to find where a feature is implemented.
- A change depends on unfamiliar parts of a project.
- You want a map before planning or editing.
What to share with Pi
- The repository or folder
- What you need to understand
- Any areas that should be included or ignored
Try asking
Map how sign-in works in this repository. Show the key files, important connections, risks, and the evidence needed for a change.
What you’ll get
- A focused map of relevant files
- Important names and relationships
- Risks, unknowns, and recommended next steps
Keep in mind
The explorer keeps its output focused. If the request is too broad, a narrower follow-up may be needed. Each exploration also saves local index data and a small effectiveness report for later review.
Install
pi install npm:@firstpick/pi-skill-repo-explorer
Restart Pi if the skill does not appear in your current session.
