I built a skill that explains you, your AI Slop!

A developer built show-me-the-build, an open-source skill for Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and other LLM agents that turns any codebase or cloud deployment into a self-building HTML presentation. The skill animates resources and modules in the order they were created, drawing connections live and attaching a real one-sentence rationale to each component pulled from code or infrastructure docs. It ships as a single self-contained HTML file with no server or build step, installable via npx.

A problem every hackathon builder who is vibe coding has: a lot of times, the demo works; you built it with an agent over the last six hours, but you genuinely don't know what is going on under the hood.

That's why I built show-me-the-build — a Claude Code / Cursor / Codex (or any other LLM) skill that turns any codebase or cloud deployment with any agent into a self-building HTML presentation. Type one command, and it walks through what got built, why it was built that way, and how it actually runs.

Anyone can generate a static architecture diagram. The interesting bit is that this one builds itself, step by step — resources or modules appear one at a time, in the order they were actually created, with the connections between them drawn live. Click any box and a drawer opens with a real one-sentence reason it exists — not an invented "reduces coupling," but the actual reason, pulled from your code or your infra docs.

It ships as one self-contained HTML file. No server, no build step. Copy it, present it, done.

Two situations, mainly:

npx skills@latest add sanidhya-build/skills --skill=show-me-the-build

Or if you are lazy like me, just ask your agent the following :

Install the show-me-the-build skill via npx (npx skills@latest add sanidhya-build/skills --skill=show-me-the-build). Install the skill in this agent's global /skills folder.

Then type /show-me-the-build in your agent of choice.
