docs-update

To keep documentation in sync with code changes, use a standardized update checklist that identifies affected docs and specifies when to regenerate API references. This prevents documentation drift by guiding reviews after features, fixes, or refactors.

A documentation inventory, such as llms.txt or llms-full.txt, is a centralized file that maps cross-references to API and plugin docs. It helps maintain API docs by providing a clear structure to identify which documentation needs review after code modifications.

To know which docs to update after a code refactor, follow a step-by-step documentation update checklist that cross-references the centralized llms.txt inventory. This process identifies affected documentation surfaces and outlines when to regenerate API references.

Yes, you need a centralized documentation inventory like llms.txt to maintain consistency across large codebases. It provides the necessary cross-reference mapping and centralized guidelines required to streamline documentation updates after code changes.

You should regenerate API references during the documentation update process when code changes affect API surfaces. The update checklist guides this step, ensuring that API docs remain accurate and aligned with the latest codebase modifications.
