SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This rule-set ensures consistent and auditable documentation across module Skill Units by mandating YAML frontmatter with a name and description, and a structured, reviewable description body.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Enforces mandatory USERGUIDE.md and README.md presence or equivalent guidance.
  • Defines a clear structure for the Skill description with sections for problem, features, and quick start.
  • Provides guidance on updates, code comments, and governance without auto-generating docs.

Quick Start

Ensure every Skill includes a SKILL.md with a name and description, and implement the three-section description structure with a single-sentence Quick Start.

FAQPage Schema
How do I enforce mandatory YAML frontmatter and README standards for module documentation?

To enforce mandatory YAML frontmatter and README standards, apply this governance rule-set to audit Skill Units and guarantee a structured description, USERGUIDE.md, and README.md exist with correct formatting.

What structure is required for a Skill description to pass documentation validation?

Documentation validation requires a structured description containing three sections: the problem solved, core features and use cases, and a single-sentence Quick Start instruction.

Can I use these documentation governance rules to auto-generate missing README and USERGUIDE files?

No, these documentation governance rules do not auto-generate files. They provide validation and guidance on updates, code comments, and formatting to ensure you manually create compliant USERGUIDE.md and README.md files.

Do I need any external dependencies to audit Skill Units for documentation standards?

No external dependencies are required to audit Skill Units for documentation standards. You can validate SKILL.md files for required name and description fields directly within your existing content workflow.

What is the best way to maintain consistent user guide and README formatting across multiple modules?

The best way to maintain consistent user guide and README formatting is to enforce a standardized governance rule-set that audits each module for mandatory frontmatter and a three-section descriptive structure.
