SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill ensures that your architecture documentation accurately reflects the current state of your codebase, preventing outdated or misleading information.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Code-to-Doc Sync: Automatically updates architecture markdown files based on code changes.
  • Deep Understanding: Focuses on understanding the 'why' behind design decisions, not just cataloging components.
  • Use Case: After implementing a new feature, use this Skill to regenerate the relevant architecture documentation, ensuring new components, data flows, and design rationales are accurately captured.

Quick Start

Update the architecture documentation for the 'user-authentication' module.

FAQPage Schema
How do I keep architecture documentation in sync with code changes?

To keep architecture documentation in sync with code changes, you can automatically update markdown files by analyzing code updates and rebuilding docs from a deep understanding of the codebase.

What is the best way to document design rationale and constraints for a new feature?

Documenting design rationale and constraints is best handled by analyzing the codebase to capture the 'why' behind decisions, focusing on purpose, invariants, and data lifecycle to ensure accuracy.

How do I validate that my architecture markdown files match the actual codebase?

Validate architecture markdown files against the actual codebase by performing dry walkthroughs that verify the documented data flows, components, and design rationales against the current code.

Can I automatically regenerate architecture documentation after implementing a new module?

Yes, you can automatically regenerate architecture documentation after implementing a new module by analyzing the code changes to capture new components, data flows, and design rationales accurately.

Does this approach to code-to-doc sync work without external dependencies?

Yes, this code-to-doc sync approach works without external dependencies, directly updating architecture markdown files by analyzing code changes and validating the results through dry walkthroughs.

Why does my architecture documentation become outdated or misleading after code updates?

Architecture documentation becomes outdated or misleading after code updates when it is not automatically synchronized with the codebase, failing to reflect new components and data flows.
