SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

After code is added, this skill updates the instruction and reference documents so other AIs and developers stay aligned with the latest implementation details.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automatic Documentation Sync: Keeps READMEs, API references, architecture docs, and changelogs up to date after code changes.
  • Multi-Doc Coverage: Applies across multiple file types and docs within the repository.
  • Use Case: When a new feature is added or a refactor occurs, run the skill to refresh documentation and migration notes.

Quick Start

Run the docs update workflow for the repository after merging changes, or trigger the update-docs skill with a summary of changes like "updated authentication flow".

FAQPage Schema
How do I automatically update documentation after code changes?

To automatically update documentation after code changes, you can trigger a docs-automation workflow that analyzes code diffs and applies structured edits to README, API docs, architecture docs, and changelogs to keep everything in sync.

What is the best way to keep a README and API docs in sync with code refactoring?

Keeping a README and API docs in sync with code refactoring is best handled by a docs-automation process that locates relevant docs based on code diffs and applies structured edits across multiple documentation file types.

Can I update multiple types of architecture docs and changelogs at once?

Yes, you can update multiple types of architecture docs and changelogs at once by running an automation workflow that scans code changes and applies structured edits across the entire documentation suite in the repository.

How does docs-automation locate which files to update when code changes?

Docs-automation locates which files to update by analyzing code diffs to identify modified components, then finding the relevant README sections, API references, and architecture docs connected to those changes before applying edits.

Do I need to provide a summary of changes to update project documentation?

You do not strictly need to provide a summary of changes to update project documentation, as the workflow analyzes code diffs directly, but providing a summary like updated authentication flow helps refresh documentation and migration notes more accurately.
