Readme

This is the README generator you wish you had on every project. It doesn't just template out a quick markdown file. It does a deep codebase exploration first, then writes documentation covering three critical angles: getting the app running locally, explaining how the system actually works, and handling production deployment. The skill comes from shpigford's collection and has picked up 181 installs and 229 GitHub stars, which tells you people are tired of half-baked docs. It's thorough to the point of being "absurdly thorough" by design. Use it when you're staring at an undocumented codebase or when you actually want your project to be maintainable by someone other than you.
