onboard

A one-command setup process that scans a project and makes the coding assistant aware of its structure, tools, and current setup.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps detect languages, frameworks, package managers, tests, linters, continuous-integration files, environment settings, architecture, and possible issues; it also creates project instructions and starts the memory files.
Why use it?
It saves time spent manually explaining the technology stack and project conventions before asking for coding help.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

onboard scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 3d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

/onboard - Project Onboarding

$ARGUMENTS


Purpose

One command to make your AI assistant fully project-aware. Scans the project, detects tech stack, maps architecture, generates a project-specific CLAUDE.md, initializes Memory Bank, and reports potential issues.


Behavior

When /onboard is triggered:

Phase 1: Tech Stack Detection

Scan for manifest files and detect:

File Detects
package.json Node.js, framework (next, react, vue, svelte, express), dependencies, scripts, package manager
requirements.txt / pyproject.toml / setup.py Python, framework (django, fastapi, flask)
go.mod Go, modules
Cargo.toml Rust, crates
pubspec.yaml Flutter/Dart
Gemfile Ruby on Rails
docker-compose.yml / Dockerfile Containerization
tsconfig.json TypeScript config
.env.example / .env.local Environment variables

Also detect:

  • Package manager: lockfile priority (pnpm-lock.yaml > yarn.lock > package-lock.json > bun.lockb)
  • Test runner: jest.config, vitest.config, pytest.ini, .mocharc
  • Linter: .eslintrc, .prettierrc, ruff.toml, .flake8
  • CI/CD: .github/workflows/, .gitlab-ci.yml, Jenkinsfile
  • Database: prisma/schema.prisma, drizzle.config, alembic.ini, migrations/

Phase 2: Architecture Mapping

Read the directory structure and identify:

  • Entry points: src/index.ts, app/layout.tsx, main.py, cmd/main.go
  • Project pattern: monorepo (packages/), feature-based (src/features/), domain-driven (src/domain/), flat
  • Key directories: what each top-level directory does
  • Config files: summarize important configs (next.config, vite.config, webpack.config)
  • API routes: src/app/api/, routes/, controllers/

Phase 3: Key File Summary

Read and summarize (1-2 lines each):

  • Entry point files
  • Main config files
  • Schema/model files (prisma schema, models/, types/)
  • Existing README.md (if any)

Phase 4: Generate Project CLAUDE.md

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

onboard is a skill published in the GitHub repository bugrabilge/bilge-development-kit (10 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 56 tokens to every session and 1,384 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
