Goal: Generate or update an index.md to reference all docs in a target folder.

EXECUTION

Step 1: Scan Directory

  • List all files and subdirectories in the target location

Step 2: Group Content

  • Organize files by type, purpose, or subdirectory

Step 3: Generate Descriptions

  • Read each file to understand its actual purpose and create brief (3-10 word) descriptions based on the content, not just the filename

Step 4: Create/Update Index

  • Write or update index.md with organized file listings
