SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Newly added tools (tools, scripts, or integrations) are often undocumented, leaving agents unaware of capabilities and how to use them. This skill ensures they are formally documented in TOOLS.md so agents can discover and use them.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Standardized templates in TOOLS.md for new tools to ensure consistency
  • Clear required fields (name, purpose, usage, key flags, examples) for each entry
  • Facilitates onboarding, cross-org consistency, and up-to-date tooling references
  • Use case: when a new bus script or CLI binary is introduced, add an entry so agents can immediately leverage it

Quick Start

Document a newly added tool by adding a properly formatted entry to TOOLS.md in the agent workspace.
