SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill ensures that the repository's reference documentation stays accurate and up-to-date with the latest OAT implementation changes, preventing outdated information and maintaining trust.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Synchronizes Documentation: Updates key reference files (current-state.md, roadmap.md, backlog.md, etc.) to reflect new skills, changed behaviors, or updated conventions.
  • Identifies Drift: Helps catch inconsistencies between implementation and documentation through sanity checks.
  • Use Case: After adding a new skill to .agents/skills/, use this Skill to update .oat/repo/reference/current-state.md and .oat/repo/reference/roadmap.md to include the new skill and its status.

Quick Start

Use the update-repo-reference skill to synchronize the OAT reference documentation after implementing a new skill.

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

To keep repository documentation in sync with code changes, you can run a synchronization process that updates reference files like current-state.md and roadmap.md to reflect new skills and behavior changes, preventing outdated information.

What is documentation drift and how do sanity checks identify it?

Documentation drift occurs when reference files become inconsistent with actual implementation. Sanity checks identify this drift by validating the accuracy of files like current-state.md and backlog.md against recent OAT changes and conventions.

How to update current-state.md and roadmap.md after adding a new skill?

To update current-state.md and roadmap.md after adding a new skill, execute a documentation synchronization task that scans the .agents/skills/ directory and propagates the new skill status into the OAT reference docs.

Does updating OAT reference documentation require external dependencies?

Updating OAT reference documentation requires no external dependencies. The process operates directly on repository files to validate accuracy and synchronize conventions without additional packages.

What is the best way to maintain backlog.md accuracy during active development?

The best way to maintain backlog.md accuracy during active development is to synchronize it regularly with implementation changes, ensuring updated behaviors and conventions are validated through sanity checks.
