Does this solve my problem? -2. Can I use it? -3. Who made it? -4. Where do I learn more? +PitchDocs doesn't guess what your project does. It scans 10 signal categories — exports, CLI commands, API routes, npm scripts, configuration options, schema definitions, and more — then maps features to actual file paths. -**The Lobby Principle** — README is the lobby of your repo. It shouldn't contain the entire building. Detailed content goes in separate docs, linked from the README. +Every feature claim is backed by code. When PitchDocs says "You can configure X via Y", it shows you the exact file where that lives. -**Time to Hello World** — CLI tools: <60 seconds. Libraries: <2 minutes. Frameworks: <5 minutes.
