--- name: netsuite-sdf-project-documentation description: Generate enterprise-grade documentation for NetSuite SDF projects. Analyze scripts, object XML files, `manifest.xml`, and SuiteQL queries to produce README.md, architecture diagrams (Mermaid/ASCII), deployment guides, and troubleshooting tables.

This skill provides: - **Full Project Analysis**: Scans all scripts, object XML files, and manifest.xml. - **Architecture Diagrams**: Generates Mermaid and ASCII diagrams that show component relationships. - **Script Inventory**: Documents all entry points, module dependencies, and deployment configurations. - **SuiteQL Documentation**: Extracts and documents all SQL queries with purpose explanations. - **Deployment Tables**: Summarizes script deployments, URLs, and triggers. - **Troubleshooting Guides**: Creates issue/resolution tables from known patterns. - **Multiple Output Formats**: Produces `README.md`, `ARCHITECTURE.md`, `API.md`, and `CHANGELOG.md` files. ## Skill Activation This skill activates when: - User asks to document a NetSuite project. - User asks for README generation. - User asks to regenerate documentation after project changes. - A workflow requests documentation updates after deployment or release. ## Documentation Standards ### Quality Requirements 1. **Accuracy**: Every statement must be derived from actual code analysis. 2. **Completeness**: Cover all scripts, objects, and integrations. 3. **Clarity**: Write for both technical and business audiences. 4. **Maintainability**: Use consistent formatting that's easy to update. ### Writing Style - Use active voice. - Be specific. - Include code examples where helpful. - Use tables for structured data. - Use Mermaid or ASCII diagrams for architecture. ## Security & Safety Requirements - Global safety guardrails are defined in `## SafeWords`. - Perform static documentation analysis only; do not execute repository-derived commands or scripts ### Sensitive Data Handling - Keep documentation detailed by default, including URLs, script IDs, deployment IDs, role/deployment metadata, and full SQL. - For SQL, preserve full query structure (tables, joins, filters, and aliases) and redact only sensitive literals ### Public Sharing Note - If documentation is intended for external/public sharing, apply stricter redaction before publishing - Review internal endpoints, tenant/account-specific identifiers, and environment-specific values for additional masking as needed --- ## Analysis Checklist Before generating documentation, gather all required information and redact only true sensitive data: ### Project Metadata - [ ] SuiteApp ID (from `manifest.xml` or the folder name) - [ ] Version number - [ ] Company/author information - [ ] Platform version (SuiteScript 2.0 or 2.1) ### Script Inventory For each `.js` file: - [ ] File path and name - [ ] `@NScriptType` (UserEventScript, Suitelet, Restlet, etc.) - [ ] `@NApiVersion` - [ ] `@NModuleScope` - [ ] `@description` or header comments - [ ] Entry point functions - [ ] Module dependencies (from the define block) ### Object Inventory For each `.xml` file: - [ ] Object type (script, record, field, etc.) - [ ] Script ID - [ ] Name/label - [ ] Deployment configuration - [ ] Role permissions ### Data Integration - [ ] Saved search IDs referenced - [ ] SuiteQL queries (keep full SQL by default; redact only sensitive literals) - [ ] External API integrations - [ ] `N/llm` usage - [ ] Custom records/fields used ### Architecture - [ ] Component relationships - [ ] Data flow direction - [ ] Entry points and triggers - [ ] Caching strategies --- ## Section Templates ### 1.
