SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill prevents commits with outdated or misleading documentation by ensuring README.md and .cursor/project_architecture.md accurately reflect staged changes.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Documentation parity checks: validates that staged changes are reflected in README.md and .cursor/project_architecture.md.
  • Pre-commit gate: stops commits until documentation parity is achieved.
  • Guidance & diffs: highlights differences and suggests doc updates to align with code changes.

Quick Start

Stage your changes and trigger the pre-commit docs sync as part of your pre-commit workflow. If docs are out of date, revise README.md or project_architecture.md, re-stage, and re-run until parity is achieved.

FAQPage Schema
How do I enforce up-to-date README documentation before every git commit?

To enforce up-to-date README documentation before every git commit, use a pre-commit validation gate that inspects staged code diffs and blocks the commit until README.md reflects the changes. This ensures documentation parity automatically.

What is pre-commit documentation parity and how does diff analysis work?

Pre-commit documentation parity is the state where staged code changes are accurately reflected in project docs. Diff analysis works by inspecting staged changes, highlighting differences, and suggesting specific documentation updates to align with the code.

Can I use a pre-commit hook to keep project architecture docs in sync with code changes?

Yes, you can use a pre-commit hook to keep project architecture docs in sync with code changes. It validates that .cursor/project_architecture.md accurately reflects staged changes, guiding developers to review and update architecture documentation before committing.

What's the best way to stop commits with outdated documentation in a software engineering workflow?

The best way to stop commits with outdated documentation is implementing a pre-commit gate that validates documentation parity. It inspects staged diffs and blocks the commit entirely until both README.md and project architecture docs reflect the changes.

Why does my pre-commit hook block commits when documentation is out of date?

Your pre-commit hook blocks commits when documentation is out of date because it detects a mismatch between staged code diffs and your docs. It halts the commit to prevent misleading documentation, highlighting differences and suggesting necessary updates.
