Why we included this project

Undergraduate software engineering students who need to turn an existing project repository and thesis draft into a submission-ready document will find this directly useful. It provides two installable Codex CLI skills: one that plans the thesis and maps evidence from the actual codebase, and another that keeps editing the current working draft, restores old database diagrams and table documentation, adds real run screenshots, and produces the final DOCX in a university template. Instead of generating text from thin air, the workflow only writes what the repository can actually back up, so students avoid the fabricated claims that plague so many theses. It also supports iterative rewriting against similarity-check and AI-detection reports, and includes a salvage mode that protects any manual edits made between rounds. The documented structure and worked examples make it easy to see the workflow in action before trying it yourself.
