# Code Tour

Create **CodeTour** `.tour` files for codebase walkthroughs that open directly to real files and line ranges. Tours live in `.tours/` and are meant for the CodeTour format, not ad hoc Markdown notes.

A good tour is a narrative for a specific reader:
- what they are looking at
- why it matters
- what path they should follow next

Only create `.tour` JSON files. Do not modify source code as part of this skill.

## When to Use

Use this skill when:
- the user asks for a code tour, onboarding tour, architecture walkthrough, or PR tour
- the user says "explain how X works" and wants a reusable guided artifact
- the user wants a ramp-up path for a new engineer or reviewer
- the task is better served by a guided sequence than a flat summary

Examples:
- onboarding a new maintainer
- architecture tour for one service or package
- PR-review walk-through anchored to changed files
- RCA tour showing the failure path
- security review tour of trust boundaries and key checks
