What problem does it solve?

This Skill ensures your project documentation (like CLAUDE.md and README.md) accurately reflects the current state of your project, preventing outdated information and identifying areas for improvement.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Staleness Detection: Compares documentation against the live project state (file trees, counts, dates, git history).
  • Leanness Audit: Flags overly long files or sections, suggesting extraction to dedicated documentation files.
  • Use Case: After adding new features and committing code, run this Skill to automatically update your README's file structure, verify the bibliography count, and ensure your project's description is still accurate.

Quick Start

Run the update-project-doc skill to refresh your project's documentation.

FAQPage Schema
What is the best way to update project documentation after committing new code?

To update project documentation, run an automation skill that compares files like README.md and CLAUDE.md against the live project state. It detects outdated file trees, counts, and timestamps, then performs a leanness audit to flag overly long sections for targeted edits.

How do I detect and fix stale README file structures and counts?

You detect and fix stale README file structures by comparing documentation against the live project state using Glob, Grep, and Bash commands. This identifies outdated file trees, timestamps, and counts, allowing you to perform targeted edits with user confirmation to reflect the current codebase.

Can I audit documentation leanness and flag overly long sections?

Yes, you can audit documentation leanness by checking file sizes and section lengths. The process flags overly long files or sections and suggests extraction to dedicated documentation files, ensuring your project docs remain accurate, lean, and easy to maintain.

Does the staleness check work with CLAUDE.md and README.md files?

Yes, the staleness check works with CLAUDE.md and README.md files. It updates these documentation files to reflect the current project state by detecting and flagging outdated file trees, timestamps, counts, and next steps using Glob, Grep, and Bash commands.

How do I keep project docs accurate and lean without manual editing?

You keep project docs accurate and lean by utilizing an automation process that detects stale file trees and performs a leanness audit on file sizes. It uses Glob, Grep, and Bash commands to identify necessary updates and requires user confirmation for targeted edits.
