Frequently Asked Questions about skill-research

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I check if upstream documentation references are stale?▼

Checking upstream documentation references for staleness involves verifying vendored snippets against upstream change histories. This skill automates that detection process, flags outdated content, and updates reference files to match the latest upstream sources.

What is the best way to populate a references directory with upstream documentation?▼

Populating a references directory with upstream documentation requires pulling verified snippets from source repositories. This skill assists maintainers by automatically extracting and vendoring those documentation excerpts into the correct reference structure.

How do I file GitHub issues for upstream documentation discrepancies?▼

Filing GitHub issues for upstream documentation discrepancies is handled by reporting identified schema changes or bugs directly to source repositories. This skill streamlines collaborative documentation improvement by automating the issue filing process.

Can I use this skill to maintain multiple documentation excerpts simultaneously?▼

Maintaining multiple documentation excerpts simultaneously is supported by automating reference checks and staleness reporting across various files. This skill streamlines contributor workflows by verifying reference accuracy and currency for all managed files at once.

Why does upstream documentation referencing require issue reporting?▼

Upstream documentation referencing requires issue reporting because source repositories need visibility into identified schema changes or content bugs. Filing issues collaboratively improves overall documentation quality and ensures reference files remain accurate over time.
