SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Code changes frequently leave documentation stale, causing README files, architecture docs, and AI coding skills to drift out of sync with the actual implementation. This Skill enforces a documentation checklist after every feature, refactor, bugfix, or architectural change so docs never fall behind. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Post-Change Checklist: After any code change, systematically checks README.md sections, docs/ files, and Cursor skills for required updates. - Change-to-Doc Mapping: Provides a quick-reference table mapping change types (new API endpoint, new env var, new agent) to the exact README sections and doc files to update. - Skill Synchronization: Ensures Cursor skills like coding-skill and agent-skill reflect new code patterns so future AI-generated code stays correct. - Use Case: After adding a new LLM provider to your project, the Skill prompts you to update the Environment Variables table, the LLM section of README.md, and docs/development.md. ## Quick Start After finishing a code change, ask the AI to check and update all affected documentation using the change-docs checklist.

Frequently Asked Questions about change-docs-skill

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I keep README and docs in sync with code changes?▼

Run a post-change documentation checklist after every code modification. Check whether the change affects README sections like Architecture, Key Features, or Environment Variables, then update the corresponding docs/ files such as api-reference.md or architecture.md.

What documentation should I update after adding a new feature?▼

Add the feature to the README Key Features list, update the Architecture diagram if components changed, and add an API usage example. If the feature introduces new endpoints or agents, also update docs/api-reference.md or docs/agents-and-tools.md.

When should I update Cursor skills after a code change?▼

Update Cursor skills whenever a code pattern changes, such as sync-to-async conversions, new factories, or agent structure modifications. Outdated skill examples cause the AI to generate incorrect code in future tasks.

What documentation changes should I avoid making?▼

Avoid creating new doc files unless a genuinely new area is introduced, rewriting the entire README for minor changes, or documenting internal implementation details in user-facing README sections. Make surgical updates only.

Does this documentation workflow require any tools or dependencies?▼

No external dependencies are required. The Skill is a pure instruction set that guides the AI through documentation checks using your existing README.md, docs/ directory, and .cursor/skills/ folder.
