## Overview

Skill Seeker automatically converts any documentation website into a Claude AI skill. It scrapes documentation, organizes content, extracts code patterns, and packages everything into an uploadable `.zip` file for Claude.

## Prerequisites

**Python Version:** Python 3.10 or higher (required for MCP integration)

**Setup with Virtual Environment (Recommended):**
```bash
# One-time setup
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate  # macOS/Linux (Windows: venv\Scripts\activate)
pip install requests beautifulsoup4 pytest
pip freeze > requirements.txt

# Every time you use Skill Seeker in a new terminal session
source venv/bin/activate  # Activate before using any commands
```

**Why use a virtual environment?**
- Keeps dependencies isolated from system Python
- Prevents package version conflicts
- Standard Python development practice
- Required for running tests with pytest

**If someone else clones this repo:**
```bash
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
```

**Optional (for API-based enhancement):**
```bash
source venv/bin/activate
pip install anthropic
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-...
```

## Core Commands

### Quick Start - Use a Preset

```bash
# Scrape and build with a preset configuration
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/godot.json
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/react.json
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/vue.json
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/django.json
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/laravel.json
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/fastapi.json
```

### First-Time User Workflow (Recommended)

```bash
# 1. Install dependencies (one-time)
pip3 install requests beautifulsoup4

# 2. Estimate page count BEFORE scraping (fast, no data download)
python3 cli/estimate_pages.py configs/godot.json
# Time: ~1-2 minutes, shows estimated total pages and recommended max_pages

# 3. Scrape with local enhancement (uses Claude Code Max, no API key)
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/godot.json --enhance-local
# Time: 20-40 minutes scraping + 60 seconds enhancement

# 4. Package the skill
python3 cli/package_skill.py output/godot/

# Result: godot.zip ready to upload to Claude
```

### Interactive Mode

```bash
# Step-by-step configuration wizard
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --interactive
```

### Quick Mode (Minimal Config)

```bash
# Create skill from any documentation URL
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --name react --url https://react.dev/ --description "React framework for UIs"
```

### Skip Scraping (Use Cached Data)

```bash
# Fast rebuild using previously scraped data
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/godot.json --skip-scrape
# Time: 1-3 minutes (instant rebuild)
```

### Async Mode (2-3x Faster Scraping)

```bash
# Enable async mode with 8 workers for best performance
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/react.json --async --workers 8

# Quick mode with async
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --name react --url https://react.dev/ --async --workers 8

# Dry run with async to test
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/godot.json --async --workers 4 --dry-run
```

**Recommended Settings:**
- Small docs (~100-500 pages): `--async --workers 4`
- Medium docs (~500-2000 pages): `--async --workers 8`
- Large docs (2000+ pages): `--async --workers 8 --no-rate-limit`

**Performance:**
- Sync: ~18 pages/sec, 120 MB memory
- Async: ~55 pages/sec, 40 MB memory (3x faster!)

**See full guide:** [ASYNC_SUPPORT.md](ASYNC_SUPPORT.md)

### Enhancement Options

**LOCAL Enhancement (Recommended - No API Key Required):**
```bash
# During scraping
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/react.json --enhance-local

# Standalone after scraping
python3 cli/enhance_skill_local.py output/react/
```

**API Enhancement (Alternative - Requires API Key):**
```bash
# During scraping
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/react.json --enhance

# Standalone after scraping
python3 cli/enhance_skill.py output/react/
python3 cli/enhance_skill.py output/react/ --api-key sk-ant-...
```

### Package and Upload the Skill

```bash
# Package skill (opens folder, shows upload instructions)
python3 cli/package_skill.py output/godot/
# Result: output/godot.zip

# Package and auto-upload (requires ANTHROPIC_API_KEY)
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-...
python3 cli/package_skill.py output/godot/ --upload

# Upload existing .zip
python3 cli/upload_skill.py output/godot.zip

# Package without opening folder
python3 cli/package_skill.py output/godot/ --no-open
```

### Force Re-scrape

```bash
# Delete cached data and re-scrape from scratch
rm -rf output/godot_data/
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/godot.json
```

### Estimate Page Count (Before Scraping)

```bash
# Quick estimation - discover up to 100 pages
python3 cli/estimate_pages.py configs/react.json --max-discovery 100
# Time: ~30-60 seconds

# Full estimation - discover up to 1000 pages (default)
python3 cli/estimate_pages.py configs/godot.json
# Time: ~1-2 minutes

# Deep estimation - discover up to 2000 pages
python3 cli/estimate_pages.py configs/vue.json --max-discovery 2000
# Time: ~3-5 minutes

# What it shows:
# - Estimated total pages
# - Recommended max_pages value
# - Estimated scraping time
# - Discovery rate (pages/sec)
```

**Why use estimation:**
- Validates config URL patterns before full scrape
- Helps set optimal `max_pages` value
- Estimates total scraping time
- Fast (only HEAD requests + minimal parsing)
- No data downloaded or stored

### Data Flow

1. **Scrape Phase** (`scrape_all()` in doc_scraper.py:228-251):
   - Input: Config JSON (name, base_url, selectors, url_patterns, categories)
   - Process: BFS traversal from base_url, respecting include/exclude patterns
   - Output: `output/{name}_data/pages/*.json` + `summary.json`

2. **Build Phase** (`build_skill()` in doc_scraper.py:561-601):
   - Input: Scraped JSON data from `output/{name}_data/`
   - Process: Load pages → Smart categorize → Extract patterns → Generate references
   - Output: `output/{name}/SKILL.md` + `output/{name}/references/*.md`

3. **Enhancement Phase** (optional):
   - Input: Built skill directory with references
   - Process: Claude analyzes references and rewrites SKILL.md
   - Output: Enhanced SKILL.md with real examples and guidance

4. **Package Phase**:
   - Input: Skill directory
   - Process: Zip all files (excluding .backup)
   - Output: `{name}.zip`

### Configuration File Structure

Config files (`configs/*.json`) define scraping behavior:

```json
{
  "name": "godot",
  "description": "When to use this skill",
  "base_url": "https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/",
  "selectors": {
    "main_content": "div[role='main']",
    "title": "title",
    "code_blocks": "pre"
  },
  "url_patterns": {
    "include": [],
    "exclude": ["/search.html", "/_static/"]
  },
  "categories": {
    "getting_started": ["introduction", "getting_started"],
    "scripting": ["scripting", "gdscript"],
    "api": ["api", "reference", "class"]
  },
  "rate_limit": 0.5,
  "max_pages": 500
}
```

**Config Parameters:**
- `name`: Skill identifier (output directory name)
- `description`: When Claude should use this skill
- `base_url`: Starting URL for scraping
- `selectors.main_content`: CSS selector for main content (common: `article`, `main`, `div[role="main"]`)
- `selectors.title`: CSS selector for page title
- `selectors.code_blocks`: CSS selector for code samples
- `url_patterns.include`: Only scrape URLs containing these patterns
- `url_patterns.exclude`: Skip URLs containing these patterns
- `categories`: Keyword mapping for categorization
- `rate_limit`: Delay between requests (seconds)
- `max_pages`: Maximum pages to scrape

## Key Features & Implementation

### Auto-Detect Existing Data
Tool checks for `output/{name}_data/` and prompts to reuse, avoiding re-scraping (check_existing_data() in doc_scraper.py:653-660).

### Language Detection
Detects code languages from:
1. CSS class attributes (`language-*`, `lang-*`)
2. Heuristics (keywords like `def`, `const`, `func`, etc.)

See: `detect_language()` in doc_scraper.py:135-165

### Pattern Extraction
Looks for "Example:", "Pattern:", "Usage:" markers in content and extracts following code blocks (up to 5 per page).

See: `extract_patterns()` in doc_scraper.py:167-183

### Smart Categorization
- Scores pages against category keywords (3 points for URL match, 2 for title, 1 for content)
- Threshold of 2+ for categorization
- Auto-infers categories from URL segments if none provided
- Falls back to "other" category

See: `smart_categorize()` and `infer_categories()` in doc_scraper.py:282-351

### Enhanced SKILL.md Generation
Generated with:
- Real code examples from documentation (language-annotated)
- Quick reference patterns extracted from docs
- Common pattern section
- Category file listings

See: `create_enhanced_skill_md()` in doc_scraper.py:426-542

## Common Workflows

### First Time (With Scraping + Enhancement)

```bash
# 1. Scrape + Build + AI Enhancement (LOCAL, no API key)
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/godot.json --enhance-local

# 2. Wait for enhancement terminal to close (~60 seconds)

# 3. Verify quality
cat output/godot/SKILL.md

# 4. Package
python3 cli/package_skill.py output/godot/

# Result: godot.zip ready for Claude
# Time: 20-40 minutes (scraping) + 60 seconds (enhancement)
```

### Using Cached Data (Fast Iteration)

```bash
# 1. Use existing data + Local Enhancement
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/godot.json --skip-scrape
python3 cli/enhance_skill_local.py output/godot/

# 2. Package
python3 cli/package_skill.py output/godot/

# Time: 1-3 minutes (build) + 60 seconds (enhancement)
```

### Without Enhancement (Basic)

```bash
# 1. Scrape + Build (no enhancement)
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/godot.json

# 2. Package
python3 cli/package_skill.py output/godot/

# Note: SKILL.md will be basic template - enhancement recommended
# Time: 20-40 minutes
```

### Creating a New Framework Config

**Option 1: Interactive**
```bash
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --interactive
# Follow prompts, it creates the config for you
```

**Option 2: Copy and Modify**
```bash
# Copy a preset
cp configs/react.json configs/myframework.json

# Edit it
nano configs/myframework.json

# Test with limited pages first
# Set "max_pages": 20 in config

# Use it
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/myframework.json
```

## Testing & Verification

### Finding the Right CSS Selectors

Before creating a config, test selectors with BeautifulSoup:

```python
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import requests

url = "https://docs.example.com/page"
soup = BeautifulSoup(requests.get(url).content, 'html.parser')

# Try different selectors
print(soup.select_one('article'))
print(soup.select_one('main'))
print(soup.select_one('div[role="main"]'))
print(soup.select_one('div.content'))

# Test code block selector
print(soup.select('pre code'))
print(soup.select('pre'))
```

### Verify Output Quality

After building, verify the skill quality:

```bash
# Check SKILL.md has real examples
cat output/godot/SKILL.md

# Check category structure
cat output/godot/references/index.md

# List all reference files
ls output/godot/references/

# Check specific category content
cat output/godot/references/getting_started.md

# Verify code samples have language detection
grep -A 3 "```" output/godot/references/*.md | head -20
```

### Test with Limited Pages

For faster testing, edit config to limit pages:

```json
{
  "max_pages": 20  // Test with just 20 pages
}
```

## Troubleshooting

### No Content Extracted
**Problem:** Pages scraped but content is empty

**Solution:** Check `main_content` selector in config. Try:
- `article`
- `main`
- `div[role="main"]`
- `div.content`

Use the BeautifulSoup testing approach above to find the right selector.

### Poor Categorization
**Problem:** Pages not categorized well

**Solution:** Edit `categories` section in config with better keywords specific to the documentation structure. Check URL patterns in scraped data:

```bash
# See what URLs were scraped
cat output/godot_data/summary.json | grep url | head -20
```

### Data Exists But Won't Use It
**Problem:** Tool won't reuse existing data

**Solution:** Force re-scrape:
```bash
rm -rf output/myframework_data/
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/myframework.json
```

### Rate Limiting Issues
**Problem:** Getting rate limited or blocked by documentation server

**Solution:** Increase `rate_limit` value in config:
```json
{
  "rate_limit": 1.0  // Change from 0.5 to 1.0 seconds
}
```

### Package Path Error
**Problem:** doc_scraper.py shows wrong cli/package_skill.py path

**Expected output:**
```bash
python3 cli/package_skill.py output/godot/
```

**Not:**
```bash
python3 /mnt/skills/examples/skill-creator/scripts/cli/package_skill.py output/godot/
```

The correct command uses the local `cli/package_skill.py` in the repository root.
