Install and verify
Build from GitHub, verify the digest, and prepare codegraph, rtk, and a valid root index.
NKSKILLS / VERSIONED SKILL WORKFLOWS
Skills with a source. Workflows with a purpose.
Combine original and public skills into a workflow with a defined output, version, and traceable sources. Start with codebase onboarding for engineers.

01 / THE IDEA
A product layer over individual skills
Individual skills bring capability. A Solution Skill owns the outcome.
NKSkills selects public skills, records their commits and licenses, and composes them with original workflows. Each combo has its own manifest, prerequisites, output, and version.
UPSTREAM SKILL
Selected capability
Public source, license, commit, and local changes are tracked.
SOLUTION SKILL
Outcome-driven workflow
Sequence, prerequisites, components, and verification criteria are versioned.
02 / FIRST SOLUTION
Start by understanding the system.
For engineers joining a project or changing unfamiliar code. The workflow traces repository evidence before drawing conclusions.
NK / SOLUTION 001v1.1.0
Codebase
onboarding
One product journey, C1/C2 boundaries, and file paths that make each claim reviewable.
WHAT YOU GET
01
A primary journey map: actors, entry points, call path, and related data.
02
C1/C2 views of system scope and the important components.
03
Read the release record ↗File-level evidence, remaining inferences, and questions for the system owner.
Current limit: version 1.1.0 has build and install checks; behavior quality across customer repositories is not broadly verified yet.
03 / TRY IT
Start with one prompt.
Select your host and language, review the prompt, then copy. Install the skill from GitHub and prepare CodeGraph before running it.

Prompt language
The prompt checks prerequisites first. The AI must stop before installing tools, creating an index, or editing files if setup is incomplete.
I want to understand this repository before changing it. Check whether NKSkills codebase-onboarding@1.1.0, codegraph, and rtk are available here, and whether codegraph status reports a valid index at this repository root. If anything is missing, explain the source-build and setup steps from https://github.com/KhucHieuNghi/agents-skills/blob/main/docs/guides/technical-v1.md and stop before installing tools, creating an index, or editing files. If ready, use $codebase-onboarding-c4 in Quick mode. Map one primary product journey and C1/C2 architecture with file citations. Distinguish verified facts from inferences. Return findings in chat first; ask before accessing external systems or writing artifacts.I want to understand this repository before changing it.

04 / IN PRACTICE
From repository to reviewable understanding.
The workflow checks prerequisites before analysis and makes uncertainty visible.
Follow one journey
Follow an entry point through real logic and data; distinguish evidence from inference.
Review the output
Review diagrams, citations, and open questions before relying on the output.

05 / CATALOG
A collection with provenance.
Public skills are selected for a purpose, with versions and licenses tracked. An upstream change becomes a review candidate; an existing release does not change automatically.

06 / FAQ
Good to know.
Which hosts are supported?
Codex and Claude Code. Each has its own setup guide for codebase-onboarding.
Do upstream updates change a Solution Skill automatically?
No. We track sources, review new versions, then decide whether to issue a new Solution Skill release.
Can I use it on any project?
Version 1.1.0 has build and install checks, but behavior quality across repositories is not broadly verified. Review its output before making decisions.
How do I install the skill?
Build from GitHub source, verify the digest with the technical guide, then install in Codex or Claude Code. A direct-download archive is not published yet.
Will the prompt change my code?
The prompt asks for findings in chat first and approval before external access or artifact writes. If prerequisites are missing, the AI must stop before installing tools, indexing, or editing files.
