SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

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

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the generation and updating of project documentation, ensuring it stays in sync with the codebase, saving time and reducing manual errors.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Codebase-Synchronized Documentation: Automatically updates documentation files to reflect changes in the codebase.
  • Selective Regeneration: Offers the option to regenerate all documentation or verify it without generation.
  • Use Case: When a codebase is updated, this Skill can quickly refresh all associated documentation without manual intervention.

Quick Start

To update the project documentation, use the gsd-docs-update skill with the command: gsd-docs-update --force

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate project documentation updates to match my codebase?

Automate project documentation updates by running a generation process that reflects codebase changes, ensuring files stay synchronized. This skill automatically generates new documentation based on the current codebase state, saving time and reducing manual errors.

Can I verify if my documentation matches the codebase without regenerating files?

Verify documentation against the codebase without generation by using the verification mode. This allows you to check if existing documentation is synchronized with the current codebase state before deciding to commit to a full regeneration.

What do I need to set up before automating documentation synchronization?

You need to provide scripts and reference files for operation before automating documentation synchronization. These components are required to map the codebase changes and generate or verify the associated project documentation accurately.

What is the best way to force a full refresh of project documentation after a codebase update?

The best way to force a full refresh of project documentation after a codebase update is to execute the update command with the force flag. This triggers immediate regeneration of documentation to reflect the latest codebase changes.

Does selective regeneration allow me to update only specific documentation files?

Selective regeneration allows you to choose between regenerating all documentation or verifying it against the codebase without generation. It does not target individual files, but rather toggles between full generation and verification modes.

Why does documentation synchronization require reference files to operate?

Documentation synchronization requires reference files to operate because they provide the necessary structural context for the scripts to map codebase changes accurately. Without these references, the automated generation cannot reliably update the documentation.
