Create Onboarding Guide

Overview

Generate a structured developer onboarding guide by reading all available .chalk/docs/ documentation and curating it into a progressive learning path. The guide follows a Day 1 / Week 1 / Month 1 structure, starting with environment setup and a first commit, then expanding to architecture understanding and feature ownership. Every step is concrete and runnable — no "ask around" or tribal knowledge assumptions.

Workflow

  1. Read all available documentation — Scan the full .chalk/docs/ directory tree:

    • .chalk/docs/product/ for product profile, PRDs, user stories, and roadmap
    • .chalk/docs/engineering/ for architecture docs, ADRs, runbooks, and incident history
    • .chalk/docs/ai/ for analysis documents and research
    • Root .chalk/docs/ for any overview or index documents Build a mental map of what documentation exists and what gaps remain.
  2. Inspect the codebase — Use Bash and Glob to understand the project structure:

    • Package manager and dependency files (package.json, requirements.txt, go.mod, etc.)
    • Build and run scripts
    • Test framework and test file patterns
