Documentation Query
Systematic access to official platform documentation through understanding-focused architecture.
Skill Methodology
Documentation access through platform architecture understanding. Extends all profiles with structured reference to components, protocols, and competencies.
[!IMPORTANT] The skill embodies Understand Architecture → Locate Precisely → Present Systematically
- Understand platform architecture (Components, Protocols, Competencies)
- Locate documentation based on query type
- Present information that builds understanding
Documentation Architecture
The platform documentation is organized for systematic understanding:
Wiki - Platform architecture and reference:
- Components (4 subsystems): Plugins, Documentation, Instructions, Memory
- Protocols (3 operational sequences): Equilibrium, Initialization, Response
Tutorials - Practical competency development:
- Core Competencies (5 skills): Session structuring, Communication, Continuity, Customization, Measurement
[!IMPORTANT] Documentation structure reflects platform architecture - understanding the structure reveals how the platform works.
Query Type Mapping
User-Initiated Queries
When users ask questions, map to documentation structure:
| User Question | Documentation Source | Specific Section | |---------------|---------------------|------------------| | "Can Claude Code do X?" | Wiki → Components | Plugins, Documentation, Instructions, or Memory | | "How does the framework work?" | Wiki → Protocols | Equilibrium, Initialization, or Response | | "How do I configure X?" | Wiki → Getting Started | Configuration section | | "Show me how to do X" | Tutorials → Competencies | Relevant competency (1-5) | | "What are profiles?" | Wiki → Components | Memory System | | "How do skills work?" | Wiki → Components | Plugins System | | "What is the response protocol?" | Wiki → Protocols | Response Protocol |
Agent-Initiated Queries
When Claude Code needs reference documentation:
| Claude Code Need | Documentation Source | Purpose | |------------------|---------------------|---------| | Explaining platform capabilities | Wiki → Components | Accurate capability description | | Understanding framework behavior | Wiki → Protocols | Correct protocol application | | Implementing plugin features | Wiki → Components → Plugins | Pattern reference | | Teaching collaboration techniques | Tutorials → Competencies | Best practices | | Troubleshooting framework issues | Wiki → Protocols | Diagnostic understanding | | Profile customization guidance | Wiki → Components → Memory | Profile system reference |
[!IMPORTANT] Agent queries are proactive - Claude Code should reference documentation to provide accurate, platform-aligned guidance.
Understanding Stage
Clarify what type of understanding is needed.
For User Queries
Ask focused questions to map to architecture:
- "Are you asking what the platform can do?" → Components
- "Are you asking how something works?" → Protocols
- "Are you asking how to do something?" → Competencies (Tutorials)
For Agent Queries
Determine information need:
- Answering "Can it...?" → Components (verify capability)
- Explaining "How does...?" → Protocols (explain mechanism)
- Guiding "How to...?" → Competencies (teach technique)
Location Stage
Use architecture understanding to locate documentation.
Wiki Structure
Consult wiki-index.md for:
Components Section:
- Plugins System
- Documentation System
- Instructions System
- Memory System
Protocols Section:
- Equilibrium Protocol
- Initialization Protocol
- Response Protocol
Getting Started:
- Configuration and setup
Tutorials Structure
Consult tutorials-index.md for:
Core Competencies:
- Session structuring
- Effective communication
- Cross-session continuity
- Profile customization
- Effectiveness measurement
Presentation Stage
Fetch and present with architectural context.
Building Understanding
When presenting documentation:
- Provide architectural context - "This is in the Memory System component because..."
- Show relationships - "This protocol uses these components..."
- Connect to use cases - "This helps you accomplish X by..."
For Agent Reference
When Claude Code queries internally:
- Quick reference - Extract specific pattern or capability
- Verify accuracy - Confirm platform behavior before stating it
- Update understanding - Learn from official docs, not assumptions
Session Guidelines
User Documentation Queries
- Ask clarifying questions to understand the need
- Map to Components, Protocols, or Competencies
- Present with architectural context
- Offer related documentation if relevant
Agent Self-Reference
- Query proactively when uncertain about platform behavior
- Verify capabilities before claiming them
- Reference protocols when explaining framework operations
- Use components documentation for implementation patterns
DON'T
- Guess at platform capabilities - check Components
- Explain protocols from memory - fetch actual documentation
- Assume competency patterns - reference tutorials
- Mix up component responsibilities
