FAQPage Schema

How do I auto-generate API documentation from code histories and architectures?▼

You can auto-generate API documentation by providing a concise summary of changes to the skill, which then produces structured technical docs covering endpoints, parameters, and response details from your code histories and architectures.

What is the best way to create architectural decision records for system evolution?▼

The best way to create architectural decision records (ADRs) is to use an automated documentation skill that extracts architectural decisions from code histories and formats them into consistent, versionable outputs for system evolution tracking.

Can I generate technical documentation in VS Code, CLI, and Cursor?▼

Yes, you can generate technical documentation across VS Code, CLI, Claude, Cursor, and other compatible agents. The skill works within these environments to produce change summaries, API docs, and implementation reports.

How do I write implementation reports and user guides for software maintenance?▼

To write implementation reports and user guides, provide a summary of the software change to the documentation skill. It generates structured reports and guides with consistent formatting to support maintenance and team onboarding.

Does this documentation approach work for both code commits and API evolutions?▼

Yes, this approach works for both code commits and API evolutions. It documents complex software changes by generating change summaries for commits and detailed API documentation for endpoint evolutions across diverse codebases.

What are the limitations of automated technical documentation generation?▼

A limitation of automated technical documentation generation is that it relies on the concise summary of the change you provide. The quality of the generated ADRs, change summaries, and user guides depends heavily on the accuracy of that initial input.
