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

Documentation sync automates updates to README.md, CHANGELOG.md, ROADMAP.md, ARCHITECTURE.md, and Memory Bank files before Git commits. The Skill analyzes code changes and applies minimal updates with semantic versioning, eliminating manual sync work during development.

Can I automatically update my project documentation during Git commits?

Yes. The Skill triggers before Git commit, push, or release operations to check and update all key documentation files. It generates concise, semantic-versioned changes and maintains Memory Bank components (activeContext.md, progress.md, decisionLog.md, productContext.md) for precise state tracking.

What documentation files does this tool update?

It updates README.md, CHANGELOG.md, ROADMAP.md, ARCHITECTURE.md, and Memory Bank files. Updates follow Keep a Changelog formatting standards and apply minimal, semantic-versioned changes tied directly to code modifications.

How does automated documentation maintain consistency with code?

The Skill analyzes code changes before each Git operation, generates targeted documentation updates with semantic versioning, and syncs Memory Bank components. This ensures documentation reflects current code state without manual review overhead.

When should I use automated documentation sync in my workflow?

Use it when managing projects where documentation drift creates maintenance overhead. It's most valuable for teams committing frequently, maintaining multiple documentation formats, and tracking project state through Memory Bank files alongside code.

What's the difference between manual documentation updates and automated sync?

Automated sync eliminates manual README, CHANGELOG, and Memory Bank updates by triggering on Git operations and applying semantic-versioned changes based on code analysis. Manual updates risk drift; automation keeps docs synchronized with every commit.
