AI Architecture Analysis

This repository is indexed by RepoMind. By analyzing yusufkaraaslan/Skill_Seekers in our AI interface, you can instantly generate complete architecture diagrams, visualize control flows, and perform automated security audits across the entire codebase.

Our Agentic Context Augmented Generation (Agentic CAG) engine loads full source files into context, avoiding the fragmentation of traditional RAG systems. Ask questions about the architecture, dependencies, or specific features to see it in action.

๐Ÿง  The data layer for AI systems. Skill Seekers turns any documentation, GitHub repo, or PDF into structured knowledge assetsโ€”ready to power AI Skills (Claude, Gemini, OpenAI), RAG pipelines (LangChain, LlamaIndex, Pinecone), and AI coding assistants (Cursor, Windsurf, Cline) in minutes, not hours.

๐Ÿง  The Data Layer for AI Systems

Skill Seekers is the universal preprocessing layer that sits between raw documentation and every AI system that consumes it. Whether you are building Claude skills, a LangChain RAG pipeline, or a Cursor .cursorrules file โ€” the data preparation is identical. You do it once, and export to all targets.

# One command โ†’ structured knowledge asset
skill-seekers create https://docs.react.dev/
# or: skill-seekers create facebook/react
# or: skill-seekers create ./my-project

# Export to any AI system
skill-seekers package output/react --target claude      # โ†’ Claude AI Skill (ZIP)
skill-seekers package output/react --target langchain   # โ†’ LangChain Documents
skill-seekers package output/react --target llama-index # โ†’ LlamaIndex TextNodes
skill-seekers package output/react --target cursor      # โ†’ .cursorrules

๐ŸŒŠ Three-Stream GitHub Architecture

  • โœ… Triple-Stream Analysis - Split GitHub repos into Code, Docs, and Insights streams
  • โœ… Unified Codebase Analyzer - Works with GitHub URLs AND local paths
  • โœ… C3.x as Analysis Depth - Choose 'basic' (1-2 min) or 'c3x' (20-60 min) analysis
  • โœ… Enhanced Router Generation - GitHub metadata, README quick start, common issues
  • โœ… Issue Integration - Top problems and solutions from GitHub issues
  • โœ… Smart Routing Keywords - GitHub labels weighted 2x for better topic detection

Three Streams Explained:

  • Stream 1: Code - Deep C3.x analysis (patterns, examples, guides, configs, architecture)
  • Stream 2: Docs - Repository documentation (README, CONTRIBUTING, docs/*.md)
  • Stream 3: Insights - Community knowledge (issues, labels, stars, forks)
from skill_seekers.cli.unified_codebase_analyzer import UnifiedCodebaseAnalyzer

# Analyze GitHub repo with all three streams
analyzer = UnifiedCodebaseAnalyzer()
result = analyzer.analyze(
    source="https://github.com/facebook/react",
    depth="c3x",  # or "basic" for fast analysis
    fetch_github_metadata=True
)

# Access code stream (C3.x analysis)
print(f"Design patterns: {len(result.code_analysis['c3_1_patterns'])}")
print(f"Test examples: {result.code_analysis['c3_2_examples_count']}")

# Access docs stream (repository docs)
print(f"README: {result.github_docs['readme'][:100]}")

# Access insights stream (GitHub metadata)
print(f"Stars: {result.github_insights['metadata']['stars']}")
print(f"Common issues: {len(result.github_insights['common_problems'])}")

๐Ÿ” Smart Rate Limit Management & Configuration

  • โœ… Multi-Token Configuration System - Manage multiple GitHub accounts (personal, work, OSS)
    • Secure config storage at ~/.config/skill-seekers/config.json (600 permissions)
    • Per-profile rate limit strategies: prompt, wait, switch, fail
    • Configurable timeout per profile (default: 30 min, prevents indefinite waits)
    • Smart fallback chain: CLI arg โ†’ Env var โ†’ Config file โ†’ Prompt
    • API key management for Claude, Gemini, OpenAI
  • โœ… Interactive Configuration Wizard - Beautiful terminal UI for easy setup
    • Browser integration for token creation (auto-opens GitHub, etc.)
    • Token validation and connection testing
    • Visual status display with color coding
  • โœ… Intelligent Rate Limit Handler - No more indefinite waits!
    • Upfront warning about rate limits (60/hour vs 5000/hour)
    • Real-time detection from GitHub API responses
    • Live countdown timers with progress
    • Automatic profile switching when rate limited
    • Four strategies: prompt (ask), wait (countdown), switch (try another), fail (abort)
  • โœ… Resume Capability - Continue interrupted jobs
    • Auto-save progress at configurable intervals (default: 60 sec)
    • List all resumable jobs with progress details
    • Auto-cleanup of old jobs (default: 7 days)
  • โœ… CI/CD Support - Non-interactive mode for automation
    • --non-interactive flag fails fast without prompts
    • --profile flag to select specific GitHub account
    • Clear error messages for pipeline logs

Quick Setup:

# One-time configuration (5 minutes)
skill-seekers config --github

# Use specific profile for private repos
skill-seekers github --repo mycompany/private-repo --profile work

# CI/CD mode (fail fast, no prompts)
skill-seekers github --repo owner/repo --non-interactive

# Resume interrupted job
skill-seekers resume --list
skill-seekers resume github_react_20260117_143022

Rate Limit Strategies Explained:

  • prompt (default) - Ask what to do when rate limited (wait, switch, setup token, cancel)
  • wait - Automatically wait with countdown timer (respects timeout)
  • switch - Automatically try next available profile (for multi-account setups)
  • fail - Fail immediately with clear error (perfect for CI/CD)

Option 1: Automatic Upload (API-based)

# Set your API key (one-time)
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-...

# Package and upload automatically
skill-seekers package output/react/ --upload

# OR upload existing .zip
skill-seekers upload output/react.zip

Option 2: Manual Upload (No API Key)

# Package skill
skill-seekers package output/react/
# โ†’ Creates output/react.zip

# Then manually upload:
# - Go to https://claude.ai/skills
# - Click "Upload Skill"
# - Select output/react.zip

Option 3: MCP (Claude Code)

In Claude Code, just ask:
"Package and upload the React skill"

๐Ÿค– Installing to AI Agents

Skill Seekers can automatically install skills to 10+ AI coding agents.

# Install to specific agent
skill-seekers install-agent output/react/ --agent cursor

# Install to all agents at once
skill-seekers install-agent output/react/ --agent all

# Preview without installing
skill-seekers install-agent output/react/ --agent cursor --dry-run

Supported Agents

๐Ÿ”Œ MCP Integration (26 Tools)

Skill Seekers ships an MCP server for use from Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code + Cline, or IntelliJ IDEA.

# stdio mode (Claude Code, VS Code + Cline)
python -m skill_seekers.mcp.server_fastmcp

# HTTP mode (Cursor, Windsurf, IntelliJ)
python -m skill_seekers.mcp.server_fastmcp --transport http --port 8765

# Auto-configure all agents at once
./setup_mcp.sh

All 26 tools available:

  • Core (9): list_configs, generate_config, validate_config, estimate_pages, scrape_docs, package_skill, upload_skill, enhance_skill, install_skill
  • Extended (10): scrape_github, scrape_pdf, unified_scrape, merge_sources, detect_conflicts, add_config_source, fetch_config, list_config_sources, remove_config_source, split_config
  • Vector DB (4): export_to_chroma, export_to_weaviate, export_to_faiss, export_to_qdrant

๐Ÿ› Troubleshooting

No Content Extracted?

  • Check your main_content selector
  • Try: article, main, div[role="main"]

Data Exists But Won't Use It?

# Force re-scrape
rm -rf output/myframework_data/
skill-seekers scrape --config configs/myframework.json

Categories Not Good?

Edit the config categories section with better keywords.

Want to Update Docs?

# Delete old data and re-scrape
rm -rf output/godot_data/
skill-seekers scrape --config configs/godot.json

Enhancement Not Working?

# Check if API key is set
echo $ANTHROPIC_API_KEY

# Try LOCAL mode instead (uses Claude Code Max, no API key needed)
skill-seekers enhance output/react/ --mode LOCAL

# Monitor background enhancement status
skill-seekers enhance-status output/react/ --watch

GitHub Rate Limit Issues?

# Set a GitHub token (5000 req/hour vs 60/hour anonymous)
export GITHUB_TOKEN=ghp_your_token_here

# Or configure multiple profiles
skill-seekers config --github
