migrate-project-docs

A skill that prepares existing project documentation for the codelore documentation router. It adds frontmatter to approved Markdown files and creates docs/INDEX.md.

In plain words
What is it for?
Bulk-migrating project docs, adding the required metadata, indexing existing documentation, and preparing newly added unstructured docs after approval.
Why use it?
It makes older documentation easier for the router to find and select, even when the files were not originally structured for that system.

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

migrate-project-docs 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 2d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 168 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Migrate Project Docs

Bulk-prepares a project's existing markdown documentation for the codelore router skill (consulting-project-docs) by adding YAML frontmatter to implementation docs and generating docs/INDEX.md.

The router is useless on day one in a pre-existing project: docs/INDEX.md doesn't exist and old docs have no frontmatter, so there is nothing to dispatch from. This skill closes that gap.

When to invoke

  • The user explicitly asks: "migrate the docs", "set up codelore docs", "index existing documentation", "add frontmatter to docs".
  • The consulting-project-docs skill detected a missing INDEX.md and the user agreed to migration.
  • The consulting-project-docs skill detected new unfrontmattered docs after a previous migration, and the user agreed to a delta migration.

Do not auto-invoke. The user must agree before any file is touched — this skill modifies many files at once.

Frontmatter contract

Every approved doc gets exactly this block prepended (no other edits to the body):

---
name: <kebab-case identifier, derived from filename without .md>
description: <one-line hook describing the doc, written for AI triage>
---

triggers and related are left unset — the user can fill them in later. See the document-feature skill for the full schema and field rules.

Workflow

1. Discover candidates

Walk the project's documentation root (docs/ by default; if not present, ask the user). Collect every .md file under it.

Exclude unconditionally:

  • docs/INDEX.md itself.
  • Anything under docs/plans/, plans/, or specs/ (these are plans, not impl docs).
  • README.md if it lives at docs/README.md and is a navigation index rather than a feature doc — use judgment; if unsure, ask.
  • Files that already start with a valid YAML frontmatter block containing both name and description. These are already migrated.

If the resulting candidate list is empty, stop here. Report "nothing to migrate" and exit without touching any file.

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.

migrate-project-docs is a skill published in the GitHub repository qa-vault/codelore (2 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 227 tokens to every session and 1,673 once invoked, about $0.0011 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.
