Scans for project documentation files (AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, GEMINI.md, COPILOT.md, CURSOR.md, WARP.md, and 15+ other formats) and synthesizes guidance. Auto-activates when user asks to review, understand, or explore a codebase, when starting work in a new project, when asking about conventions or agents, or when documentation context would help. Can consolidate multiple platform docs into unified AGENTS.md.

# Documentation Scanner
Scan for and synthesize project documentation.
## When to Activate
- User asks to review, understand, or explore a codebase
- Starting work in a new/unfamiliar project
- User asks about project conventions or workflows
- Before making significant architectural decisions
## Instructions
### Step 1: Scan for Documentation
Use Glob to search project root:
```
AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, AI.md, ASSISTANT.md,
GEMINI.md, COPILOT.md, CHATGPT.md, CODEIUM.md,
CURSOR.md, WINDSURF.md, VSCODE.md, JETBRAINS.md,
WARP.md, FIG.md, DEVCONTAINER.md, GITPOD.md
```
### Step 2: Read All Found Files
Read complete contents of every documentation file found.
### Step 3: Synthesize
Combine information into unified summary:
```
PROJECT DOCUMENTATION
Sources: [list files found]
RECOMMENDED AGENTS
Primary: [agents for core work]
Secondary: [agents for specific tasks]
KEY WORKFLOWS
[consolidated workflows]
CONVENTIONS
[code style, patterns]
QUICK COMMANDS
[common commands]
```
### Step 4: Offer Consolidation
If 2+ documentation files exist, offer to consolidate:
1. Create `.doc-archive/` directory
2. Archive originals with date suffix
3. Generate unified AGENTS.md
4. Report what was consolidated
### Step 5: No Documentation Found
If none found, offer to generate AGENTS.md based on:
- Project structure and tech stack
- Patterns observed in codebase
## Priority Order
1. AGENTS.md (platform-agnostic)
2. CLAUDE.md (Claude-specific)
3. Other AI docs
4. IDE docs
5. Terminal docs
## Additional Resources
For detailed patterns, load:
- `./references/file-patterns.md` - Complete list of files to scan
- `./references/templates.md` - AGENTS.md generation templates
