Writing Documentation for LLMs

What problem does it solve?

This Skill teaches you how to write documentation that Large Language Models (LLMs) can effectively discover, understand, and utilize. It addresses the challenge of creating AI-friendly reference materials, API docs, and feature specifications, ensuring your LLM-powered workflows are efficient and accurate.

Core Features & Use Cases

• LLM-Optimized Structure: Learn progressive disclosure and consistent terminology for better AI comprehension.
• Content Patterns: Master "what + when" descriptions, examples over explanations, and clear workflows.
• Use Case: When documenting a new API, a complex feature, or creating a knowledge base, this Skill guides you to structure content so Claude can autonomously find and apply the information, reducing repetitive prompting.
