SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

The docs-update skill helps ensure that your project's documentation stays in sync with code changes, reducing the risk of outdated information and saving time in manual verification.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated Documentation Auditing: Verifies and updates documentation based on code or product changes.
  • Incremental Scanning: Saves and compares previous scans to identify and suggest updates for changed documentation.
  • Graphical Representation: Builds a graph of documentation nodes and their relationships for easy understanding.
  • Customization: Supports customizing the scanning process and handling specific topics or documentation nodes.
  • Use Case: After a feature merge, quickly identify and update documentation related to the new feature without manually checking each file.

Quick Start

Run the docs-update command in your repository to automatically scan and update documentation.

Frequently Asked Questions about docs-update

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I update project documentation automatically after merging code changes in Git?

Documentation synchronization can be automated by running a command within your Git repository that analyzes file changes and suggests updates for related documentation nodes based on predefined relationships.

What is the best way to audit outdated documentation across a large codebase?

Auditing outdated documentation is handled through incremental scanning, which saves and compares previous scans against current file changes to identify and suggest necessary documentation updates efficiently.

How does graph-based documentation synchronization work?

Graph-based documentation synchronization builds a graph of documentation nodes and their relationships, evaluating code changes against this map to detect outdated information and suggest targeted updates.

Can I customize the scanning process to only target specific documentation topics?

The scanning process supports customization, allowing you to define specific topics or handle individual documentation nodes so that synchronization focuses only on the areas you need.

Do I need a specific Git repository setup to verify and update documentation?

Yes, this documentation verification operates within a Git repository context, requiring your project files and docs to be tracked in Git to detect changes and map relationships accurately.

What are the limitations of incremental documentation scanning?

Incremental scanning relies on predefined relationships and previous scan states, meaning newly added code files without established documentation node mappings may not be automatically detected for updates.
