Product Knowledge Base Generator

Generate a comprehensive product knowledge base from any codebase using Claude Code.

This template repo provides a Claude Code skill (/generate-knowledge-base) that analyzes your source code and produces an interconnected Obsidian vault — complete with architecture docs, API references, domain logic, data models, and infrastructure documentation.

What You Get

A fully cross-referenced Obsidian vault containing:

• Architecture docs — system topology, tech stack, data flows
• Data model docs — database schemas, entity relationships, migrations
• API docs — endpoints, auth, request/response shapes
• Domain docs — business logic, state machines, feature specifications
• Infrastructure docs — cloud architecture, CI/CD, monitoring

Every document cites exact source file paths and links to related topics via [[wikilinks]].

Quickstart

1. Create your repo from this template

Click "Use this template" on GitHub, or clone directly:

git clone https://github.com/your-org/product-knowledge.git my-product-kb
cd my-product-kb

2. Open in Claude Code

claude

3. Run the skill

/generate-knowledge-base /path/to/your/codebase

Claude will:

1. Detect your tech stack automatically
2. Map your directory structure
3. Present a generation plan for approval
4. Generate 30-80 documents across all categories
5. Cross-reference everything with wikilinks
6. Validate all links

4. Open in Obsidian

Open the generated vault directory in Obsidian to browse the interconnected knowledge graph.
