SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill streamlines the creation and maintenance of project documentation by deriving docs directly from the codebase, reducing manual drafting and drift.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Auto-generate up to nine documentation files from code annotations and repository structure.
  • Verify existing docs against the current codebase to ensure consistency.
  • Use cases include onboarding new contributors, auditing documentation coverage, and maintaining living project docs across releases.

Quick Start

Trigger a doc generation and verification pass for the current project.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate project documentation directly from my codebase?

To automate documentation generation from a codebase, trigger the skill without flags to perform a full generation pass. It deploys subagents that explore the repository structure and code annotations to author up to nine documentation files automatically.

How can I verify that my existing docs match the current codebase?

You can verify existing docs against the current codebase by running the process with the --verify-only flag. This skips generation and reports verification results, checking that documentation accuracy and consistency are maintained across releases.

How do I force regenerate already existing documentation files?

To force regenerate existing documentation files, pass the --force flag when triggering the skill. This overrides current files and rewrites the documentation by re-exploring the codebase directly through the subagent workflow.

Do I need a specific workflow file setup to automate docs from code?

Yes, the documentation automation requires an execution workflow file located at @$HOME/.claude/qsd/workflows/docs-update.md. This workflow file orchestrates the subagents that explore the codebase and activate flags using the ARGUMENTS context.

What is the best way to maintain living documentation for onboarding new contributors?

The best way to maintain living documentation for onboarding is to derive docs directly from the codebase to reduce drift. By automating generation and running verification passes, documentation coverage stays consistent with the actual code across releases.

Are there limitations to automating docs from a codebase using subagents?

A limitation of automating docs with subagents is that generation requires the specified execution workflow file to exist at the exact home directory path. Additionally, the system is designed to author a maximum of nine documentation files per project.
