elastic-docs-skills

Write, review, and publish Elastic documentation faster

Automates Elastic documentation tasks: drafting pages, checking style and jargon, validating code samples, managing redirects, and formatting changelogs and release notes. Eliminates manual style-guide lookups, broken YAML frontmatter, inconsistent release notes, and stale content that contradicts other pages. Gives writers ready-made checks and generators that enforce Elastic docs standards directly from their editor.

Available:

Explains the skill catalog layout, required SKILL.md frontmatter conventions, and how to use the Elastic Docs MCP server so the agent can correctly invoke and extend these documentation skills.
