Ask Expert Skill

Ask Claude to create consultation documents for external expert review. Claude will structure the problem, extract relevant code with size tracking, and format everything within the 125KB token limit. See Skills Included for example prompts.

Manual Code Extraction

You can also use the extraction script directly:

Basic extraction:

node scripts/extract-code.js \
  --track-size --output=doc.md \
  src/Component.vue tests/Component.test.ts

With sections:

node scripts/extract-code.js \
  --track-size --output=doc.md \
  --section="What Changed" \
  src/Service.cs:diff \
  --section="Implementation" \
  src/Service.cs src/Model.cs

Git diffs:

node scripts/extract-code.js \
  --track-size --output=doc.md \
  src/Service.cs:diff=master..feature-branch

Using config file:

node scripts/extract-code.js \
  --config=extraction-plan.json

See skills/ask-expert/EXAMPLES.md for complete usage examples.
