System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

The Ruby Information Skill lets you access the locally installed Ruby documentation using the ri command, avoiding the need to search source code or run more heavyweight introspection. It helps developers quickly understand classes, modules, and methods with minimal setup.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Direct Lookup: Look up Ruby classes, modules, and methods quickly with ri.
  • Filtered & Quick Preview: Use head, wc, and grep to preview or filter results.
  • Explore & Reference: List available docs for a namespace or gem and read detailed references.

Quick Start

Use ri to query Ruby docs using installed ri tool:

  • Use ri [options] <what> to look up information for Ruby constructs.
  • Combine with head to preview results, with wc to count items, and with grep to filter.
  • For example: ri Array#push, ri '.find' | head -n 5, or ri --list 'Enumerable'
