Docs Architect

If you've ever inherited a codebase with zero documentation or need to turn a pile of code into an actual technical manual, this one's built for that. It walks through your codebase to extract architecture, design patterns, and implementation details, then structures everything into long-form docs with progressive complexity. You get executive summaries, component deep dives, data models, the works. The output is comprehensive Markdown suitable for onboarding or architectural reviews. It's overkill for a README but exactly right when you need a definitive technical reference that explains not just what the code does, but why it's built that way.
