SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill spawns a focused subagent to query language/framework documentation, enabling deeper answers for complex questions that require cross-symbol exploration across multiple libraries.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Focused doc-queries: retrieve API relationships, usage patterns, and conceptual mappings across packages.
  • Multi-doc-set support: extendable to different languages and ecosystems (e.g., Go docs) for comparative insights.
  • Real-world use case: reason about how components in a framework relate (e.g., Model, Cmd, and Msg) or how stdlib and external libraries interoperate.

Quick Start

Invoke with the Skill's Fish script to run a documentation query, using an absolute path to ensure go doc tooling works, for example: fish path/to/skills/querying-documentation/scripts/query.fish -s <set> '<query>'.

FAQPage Schema
How do I query Go documentation for relationships across multiple libraries?

To query Go documentation across libraries, you can spawn a focused subagent to retrieve API relationships and usage patterns. This approach uses a Fish script with the synu plugin to fetch and present comparative documentation data for complex questions.

What is the best way to explore cross-symbol relationships in framework documentation?

Exploring cross-symbol relationships in framework documentation is best handled by deploying a focused subagent. It reasons about how framework components like Model, Cmd, and Msg relate by fetching conceptual mappings across package doc sets.

Does this documentation query tool work with languages other than Go?

Yes, the documentation query tool supports multi-doc-set capabilities that are extendable to different languages and ecosystems. Currently, it ships with Go doc sets, but its architecture allows for comparative insights across various frameworks.

How do I run a documentation query using a Fish script?

You run a documentation query by invoking the Fish script with an absolute path, using the syntax: fish path/to/scripts/query.fish -s <set> '<query>'. This ensures the underlying Go doc tooling works correctly to fetch your requested data.

Can I use this to understand how stdlib and external Go libraries interoperate?

Yes, you can use this to understand how stdlib and external Go libraries interoperate. The subagent queries documentation sets to reason about component relationships and API interoperability, providing deeper answers for complex architectural questions.

What are the limitations of using a subagent for documentation queries?

A limitation of using a subagent for documentation queries is that it relies on the Fish shell and the synu plugin to function. Additionally, its current documentation sets are limited to Go, meaning other languages require manual extension.
