What problem does it solve?
Projects rely on external libraries and services whose APIs change over time, and answering from memory produces confidently wrong code; this Skill ensures the agent retrieves authoritative, current documentation instead of guessing from stale model knowledge.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Prioritized source hierarchy: Prefer llms.txt on official docs sites, then Context7 mirrors, then GitMCP, and finally web search as a last resort.
- Version-aware retrieval: Check package manifests and lockfiles to fetch version-specific docs (e.g., /v2/ or /docs/4.x/) and avoid returning wrong-major answers.
- Context-safe reading strategy: Use WebFetch for a few small pages, fan out to parallel subagents for many or large pages, and return condensed answers with source URLs and fetch metadata.
- Use case: When asked about Stripe webhook signatures, FastAPI function signatures, or a Tailwind utility API, fetch the authoritative docs and surface exact signatures, required fields, and relevant notes rather than relying on memory.
Quick Start
Ask the assistant to use docs-seeker to fetch the project's pinned library docs and return the exact function signature and required fields from the authoritative source.
