Directory Deep Dive

Analyze directory structure and purpose

Instructions

1. **Target Directory**

• Focus on the specified directory `$ARGUMENTS` or the current working directory

2. **Investigate Architecture**

• Analyze the implementation principles and architecture of the code in this directory and its subdirectories
• Look for:
• Design patterns being used
• Dependencies and their purposes
• Key abstractions and interfaces
• Naming conventions and code organization

3. **Create or Update Documentation**

• Create a CLAUDE.md file capturing this knowledge
• If one already exists, update it with newly discovered information
• Include:
• Purpose and responsibility of this module
• Key architectural decisions
• Important implementation details
• Common patterns used throughout the code
• Any gotchas or non-obvious behaviors

4. **Ensure Proper Placement**

• Place the CLAUDE.md file in the directory being analyzed
• This ensures the context is loaded when working in that specific area
