How to Run

Agent skill
1 skill
READMEOverview ↓

Generates or updates a project's HOW-TO-RUN.md — a single document that teaches a new developer how to set up their environment and run the project locally. Detects build system, toolchain, SDKs, source dependencies (git submodules, sibling repos), external services, environment config, and hardware/OS requirements. Works for web apps, C++ desktop apps, native mobile, game engines, embedded/firmware, and backend services. Audits an existing HOW-TO-RUN.md against actual project state. Learns from setup info found in README.md / CONTRIBUTING.md / docs but never modifies those files — any outdated info found elsewhere is reported to the user at the end. Use after /optimus:init or standalone when onboarding feels broken. Handles single projects, monorepos, and multi-repo workspaces.
