What it does

Wiki Onboarding is an agent skill from aiskillstore/marketplace. Generates two complementary onboarding guides — a Principal-Level architectural deep-dive and a Zero-to-Hero contributor walkthrough. Use when the user wants onboarding documentation for a codebase.

Its SKILL.md is about 980 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `skill-report.json`).

It sits in Development. The repository describes itself as: Security-audited skills for Claude, Codex & Claude Code. One-click install, quality verified.

When your agent uses it

  • The user wants onboarding documentation for a codebase

Example prompts

  • “Use the wiki-onboarding skill to generate two complementary onboarding guides — a Principal-Level architectural deep-dive and a Zero-to-Hero…”
  • “/wiki-onboarding”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

12 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. System Philosophy & Design Principles — What invariants does the system maintain? What were the key design choices and why?
  2. Architecture Overview — Component map with Mermaid diagram. What owns what, communication patterns.
  3. Key Abstractions & Interfaces — The load-bearing abstractions everything depends on
  4. Decision Log — Major architectural decisions with context, alternatives considered, trade-offs
  5. Dependency Rationale — Why each major dependency was chosen, what it replaced
  6. Data Flow & State — How data moves through the system (traced from actual code, not guessed)
  7. Failure Modes & Error Handling — What breaks, how errors propagate, recovery patterns
  8. Performance Characteristics — Bottlenecks, scaling limits, hot paths
  9. Security Model — Auth, authorization, trust boundaries, data sensitivity
  10. Testing Strategy — What's tested, what isn't, testing philosophy
  11. Operational Concerns — Deployment, monitoring, feature flags, configuration
  12. Known Technical Debt — Honest assessment of shortcuts and their risks

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 755bc35. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Wiki Onboarding loads about 981 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 54 tokens; SKILL.md has 470 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~54
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~981

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 470 words (~981 tokens).

“Generate two complementary onboarding documents that together give any engineer — from newcomer to principal — a complete understanding of a codebase.”
