Markdown instructions
A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.
Works with any LLM
AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.
Self-contained
Everything the model needs lives in the instructions — no extra files to sync.
Open source
Published by jmagly on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Aiwg Regenerate Existing Project AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
Choose "Install from GitHub".
Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
https://github.com/jmagly/aiwg/tree/main/agentic/code/addons/aiwg-utils/skills/aiwg-regenerate-existing-project
Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/jmagly/aiwg.git /tmp/aiwg
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/aiwg/agentic/code/addons/aiwg-utils/skills/aiwg-regenerate-existing-project .claude/skills/aiwg-regenerate-existing-project

Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Aiwg Regenerate Existing Project in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Aiwg Regenerate Existing Project on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Aiwg Regenerate Existing Project is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

Loaded only when it is needed
The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.
Switch models mid-chat
Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Regenerate an Existing Project

Use this opt-in branch when adopting the canonical context graph in an established repository. It extracts bounded, deterministic facts from package metadata, README purpose, stack/tooling files, standard commands, test and architecture paths, and CI workflow names. The generated snapshot lives in its own replaceable block inside the protected WORKSPACE.md operator region.

bash
aiwg regenerate --existing-project --provider <name> --dry-run
aiwg regenerate --existing-project --provider <name> --apply
aiwg workspace-context doctor

Preview is the default when neither --dry-run nor --apply is supplied. The transaction migrates provider-only roots to attributed files under .aiwg/context/providers/, preserves manual context outside managed blocks, excludes generated AIWG and spillover content, and refuses possible credential values or unresolved directive conflicts. Apply prints a transaction id and an exact aiwg workspace-context rollback <id> command.

Use aiwg-regenerate-workspace for fresh projects or ordinary refreshes, and aiwg-regenerate-legacy only for inline compatibility.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Aiwg Regenerate Existing Project AI skill do?

Transactionally extract an established project's stable metadata and provider context into WORKSPACE.md

Why use Aiwg Regenerate Existing Project on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Aiwg Regenerate Existing Project is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Aiwg Regenerate Existing Project in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/jmagly/aiwg/tree/main/agentic/code/addons/aiwg-utils/skills/aiwg-regenerate-existing-project. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Aiwg Regenerate Existing Project?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Aiwg Regenerate Existing Project?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Aiwg Regenerate Existing Project with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Aiwg Regenerate Existing Project AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by jmagly under the MIT license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
