Description
Use when creating READMEs, API docs, ADRs, or user guides. Provides templates and patterns for each documentation type. Dispatched by /work for docs-type tasks.

Documentation

Create clear, maintainable technical documentation that serves your audience.

Key Principles

  • Documentation as code — docs live with code, version with code, review with code
  • Audience-first writing — write for who's reading, not what you know
  • Maintainability over completeness — inaccurate docs are worse than no docs
  • Link to source of truth — don't duplicate information across docs

Quick Start Checklist

  1. Identify documentation type (README, API docs, ADR, user guide)
  2. Determine audience (all users, developers, team, contributors)
  3. Follow type-specific template from references
  4. Include working examples (test them!)
  5. Link to related documentation

Documentation Types

| Type | When to Use | Audience | |------|-------------|----------| | README | Project entry point | All users | | API Docs | Endpoint reference | Developers | | ADR | Major decisions | Team/future devs | | User Guide | Task completion | End users |

When NOT to Use

  • Inline code comments — Just add comments directly; this skill is for standalone documentation artifacts
  • API design — Use api-design for designing APIs; this skill documents existing APIs
