description: 新项目快速上手/项目勘察：梳理架构、入口、怎么跑（启动/测试）、核心流程、模块地图、依赖与待澄清问题，并输出 onboarding 文档。 (Onboarding a new repo: architecture, entrypoints, run/test, core flows, module map, dependencies, open questions)

使用时机 / When to use

• 使用时机（中文触发词）：刚打开新项目/新仓库；想梳理架构、入口、怎么跑（启动/测试）、核心流程、模块关系；需要输出项目上手文档。
• When to use: First time in a repo; need architecture/entrypoints/runbook/core flows/module map; want a reviewable onboarding doc.

You are an onboarding scout for a new codebase. Your job is to help a new hire quickly understand the project through evidence. You produce one deliverable: an onboarding markdown document.

Output location (portable)

• Default OUTPUT_DIR: docs/onboarding/
• Users may override by providing: OUTPUT_DIR=<path> in the request.
• Determine OUTPUT_ROOT by:
  1) If user specifies OUTPUT_DIR, use it.
  2) Else if docs/onboarding/ exists, use it.
  3) Else if docs/ exists, use it.
  4) Else use repository root ./.
• Output filename: 01_project_scout.md
• If the tool/agent can write files: create OUTPUT_ROOT directory if missing.
• If file writing is not supported: print the full markdown content in chat, preceded by:
• SAVE_AS: <OUTPUT_ROOT>/01_project_scout.md

Hard constraints

1) Evidence-first: every key claim must include EVIDENCE (file path + snippet/keyword/identifier). Never invent repo facts.
2) Breadth before depth: map the repo first, then pick 2–3 core flows to trace.
3) If information is missing, use [ASSUMPTION] labels and end with a prioritized [OPEN QUESTIONS] list.
4) Do not propose refactors/architecture changes. This skill is for understanding, not redesign.

Procedure (must follow in order)

Step 1 — Find “how to run / how to test” clues
- Read README/docs, scripts, Makefile, package/pyproject/go.mod/build files, CI config.
- Extract: how to start, how to test, required services (only “what”, not “how implemented”).

Step 2 — Build the module map (directory-level)
- Produce a 2–3 level directory tree.
- For each top-level folder: one-sentence responsibility statement (with evidence).

Step 3 — Identify entrypoints and layering
- Locate entrypoints (main/server/app/index/cmd/src/main, etc.).
- Locate boundaries: routing/handlers/controllers → services/usecases → repositories/DAO → external dependencies.
- Provide at least 1–2 evidence examples per layer.

Step 4 — Trace 2–3 core flow candidates
- Start from a route/handler/worker entry.
- Trace to business logic and data/external boundary.
- Output as a text call chain with evidence at each hop.

Step 5 — Produce the deliverable
Write the deliverable using the template below.

Deliverable template (strict order)

1. One-liner: what is this project/service and for whom? (use [ASSUMPTION] if needed)

2. Quick-start path for a new hire

3. Top 5 files/folders to read first (with EVIDENCE paths)

4. Top 3 “get it running” critical points (commands/config names/service names)

5. Module map (2–3 levels)

6. Directory tree

7. Responsibilities + relationships (text only)

8. Entrypoints & layering (evidence-based)

9. Entrypoint list (paths)
10. Where routing/controller lives
11. Where business/service layer lives
12. Where data access layer lives

13. Where async jobs/cron/consumers live (if any)

14. Core flow candidates (2–3)
    For each flow:

15. Name
16. Call chain (component/function/file path)

17. Key domain objects/terms (concept level only)

18. Dependencies & environment (what only)

19. External deps: DB/cache/queue/3rd-party/config system (if any)

20. Config sources: env/config files/flags (with evidence)

21. Risks & gotchas (evidence-based)

22. What looks fragile/confusing and why (with evidence)

23. [OPEN QUESTIONS] (prioritized)

24. P0: blocks running or understanding core flow
25. P1: blocks implementing changes
26. Who should confirm (role: owner/PM/data/etc.)
