SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Public-facing documentation drifts out of sync with code as tools and features evolve. This Skill detects what changed in the repository, maps those changes to the right documentation pages, and keeps the docs manifest consistent. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Change Detection: Reads git diff, staged files, and status to determine exactly what changed in the codebase. - Targeted Doc Updates: Classifies changes (new tool, new feature, architecture change, installation change) and updates the matching pages in docs/public/. - Manifest Maintenance: Adds new pages and categories to docs/public/index.json and validates that every entry points to a real file. - Use Case: After adding a new cc-calendar CLI tool, run the Skill to automatically add its entry to tools/overview.md with accurate syntax pulled from the tool's own README and help output. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to run /update-docs and describe what changed, for example that you added a new cc-calendar tool.

Frequently Asked Questions about update-docs

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I update documentation after adding a new CLI tool?▼

Run /update-docs with a description of the new tool. The Skill reads the git diff, pulls accurate syntax from the tool's README or help output, adds an entry to tools/overview.md, and optionally creates a dedicated tool page.

How to keep a docs manifest in sync with markdown pages?▼

The Skill updates docs/public/index.json whenever new pages are created, then validates that every file path in the manifest points to an actual file and that every markdown file has a manifest entry.

Does this Skill modify internal documentation files?▼

No. It only modifies files under docs/public/. Internal docs such as docs/CodingStyle.md and docs/VisualStyle.md are explicitly excluded from updates.

What happens if command syntax is not documented anywhere?▼

The Skill never guesses at command syntax or options. It reads the actual source material, including docs/CC_TOOLS.md, tool README files, and the tool's own --help output, before writing documentation.

When should I run update-docs versus writing docs manually?▼

Use it when code changes affect public docs, such as new tools, features, or installation steps. It is also triggered after /review-code flags missing documentation. Manual writing suits large narrative content outside the docs/public/ structure.
