Codewiki — Development skill for Claude Code

CodeWiki

**Turn any codebase into a structured knowledge base that Claude actually understands.**

You just joined a new project. Or maybe you've been on it for a year but Claude keeps asking you the same questions. It doesn't know your auth flow. It doesn't know which service talks to which. It doesn't know that "pattukal" means songs in your domain.

CodeWiki fixes that. One command, and your entire codebase becomes a structured wiki that gives Claude (and your team) the full picture.

The Problem

Claude Code is powerful, but it starts every conversation blind. It reads files on demand, guesses at architecture, and misses the connections between services. The result:

• Repeated context-setting. You explain the same auth flow, the same data model, the same deployment setup — every single session.
• Shallow understanding. Claude sees individual files but misses how they fit together. It doesn't know your API gateway routes to three backend services, or that a webhook triggers an async chain across four of them.
• No product awareness. Code structure alone doesn't tell Claude who your users are, what they're trying to do, or why that edge case matters.
• CLAUDE.md is manual and fragile. Writing it by hand means it's always incomplete, always outdated, and never covers the full system.

What CodeWiki Does

CodeWiki is a [Claude Code skill](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code/slash-commands) that scans your codebase and generates a complete product knowledge base. Not just code docs — product docs. It understands your architecture, traces your user flows, maps your services, and writes it all down in a format optimized for LLM consumption.

Run `/codewiki` and get:

Output	What's in it
overview.md	Product summary, target users, key links
architecture.md	System design, components, how they connect
service-map.md	Service dependencies, sync/async communication
events.md
