4. If certain information is not available, make reasonable assumptions based on common practices in software development.

5. Tailor the content to the specific type of project (e.g., web application, mobile app, data processing system) while maintaining the overall structure.
142178
6. When specifying related modules, include both the name of the module and its path. The path must be a valid relative path specification from the current directory or .context.md file. These should be directories that contain a .context file.
143179
7. In the diagrams section, include references to any architectural, flow, or other diagrams that help visualize the project's structure or processes. Provide both the name and path for each diagram. Prefer .mermaid files for diagrams, but also allow other lightweight diagramming formats (see Diagram Specifications section).
180+
8. For .contextdocs.md, ensure that each item in the contextdocs array includes name, type, link, relationship, and resources fields. The resources field should be an array of objects, each with a single key-value pair.

## Linting and testing the new .context.md and .contextdocs.md
194+
195+
Use the terminal to run the linting command to review the output.

Fix any errors or warnings by reviewing the codebase and filling in the missing pieces.
197+
198+
Usage of official linter for .context.md and .contextdocs.md files:
199+
200+
1. Install if it's not already installed:
201+
npm install -g codebase-context-lint
202+
2. Run the linter from the directory the files are in:
203+
codebase-context-lint .
204+
3. Repair and re-run until you have full coverage for both files.
205+
4. Pay special attention to the format of the resources in .contextdocs.md, ensuring they are objects with single key-value pairs.
206+
207+
By following these guidelines and instructions, you should be able to create comprehensive and properly formatted .context.md and .contextdocs.md files that will pass the linter checks and provide valuable context for the project.
208+
209+
Review the CODEBASE-CONTEXT.md file provided for the full specification.
