Mini AI tool adds commands to onboard existing projects

The final part of the "Building with mini" series introduces three commands for integrating an existing project into the mini workflow. The `import-gsd` command converts a project's GSD-style roadmap into mini phases, mapping statuses like completed to 'done' and in progress to 'doing'. Following this, the `audit` command analyzes the project's code, generating a prose overview in `.mini/codebase.md` to help Claude understand the codebase without incurring additional token costs on subsequent reads. Finally, the `map` command creates a machine-readable index of source files and their exports in `.mini/graph/` and `.mini/graph.json` for internal use, operating without token consumption. AI

IMPACT Enhances developer productivity by streamlining the integration of existing codebases into AI-assisted workflows.

    Building with mini, Part 9/9 (finale): Onboarding a running project — import-gsd, audit, map

    <p>Eight parts, the whole command set: from <code>init</code> through the loop, autonomous mode, state and health. But the whole time we built pycalc <strong>from scratch</strong> — <code>mini init</code> on an empty directory, phase by phase. We skirted one scenario: what if a p…
