FAQPage Schema
How do I keep documentation in sync after code changes?

To keep documentation in sync after code changes, you can evaluate the impact of recent updates on files like CLAUDE.md and determine if modifications are necessary to prevent AI context errors.

When do I need to update CLAUDE.md for AI context?

You need to update CLAUDE.md when code changes introduce new behaviors that would cause AI models to fail without accurate context, prioritizing critical updates over excessive documentation.

How do I audit code changes for documentation updates?

Auditing code changes for documentation updates involves performing static analysis on recent modifications to determine if rules or skills require updates to maintain AI accuracy.

Does updating rules and skills require brevity constraints?

Updating rules and skills applies a strict brevity constraint, ensuring that documentation additions are limited to information that is absolutely critical for preventing AI errors.

What is the best way to prevent outdated AI context in documentation?

The best way to prevent outdated AI context is to evaluate code changes against existing documentation, focusing on static analysis and common sense rather than generating excessive documentation.
