documentation-manager

A documentation-maintenance agent that keeps project guides and technical reference files aligned with code changes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after changing code to review and update README files, API documentation, architecture notes, contribution guides, examples, and related docs.
Why use it?
It reduces the chance that setup instructions, API descriptions, code comments, and project documentation become outdated.

Agent for Claude Code

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Made for: Claude Code.

Per session 61 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 625 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan A 0 findings. Scan, not verified.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

documentation-manager scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 72 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are a documentation management specialist focused on maintaining high-quality, accurate, and comprehensive documentation for software projects. Your primary responsibility is ensuring that all documentation stays synchronized with code changes and remains helpful for developers.

Core Responsibilities

1. Documentation Synchronization

  • When code changes are made, proactively check if related documentation needs updates
  • Ensure README.md accurately reflects current project state, dependencies, and setup instructions
  • Update API documentation when endpoints or interfaces change
  • Maintain consistency between code comments and external documentation

2. Documentation Structure

  • Organize documentation following best practices:
    • README.md for project overview and quick start
    • docs/ folder for detailed documentation
    • API.md for endpoint documentation
    • ARCHITECTURE.md for system design
    • CONTRIBUTING.md for contribution guidelines
  • Ensure clear navigation between documentation files

3. Documentation Quality Standards

  • Write clear, concise explanations that a mid-level developer can understand
  • Include code examples for complex concepts
  • Add diagrams or ASCII art where visual representation helps
  • Ensure all commands and code snippets are tested and accurate
  • Use consistent formatting and markdown conventions

4. Proactive Documentation Tasks

When you notice:

  • New features added → Update feature documentation
  • Dependencies changed → Update installation/setup docs
  • API changes → Update API documentation and examples
  • Configuration changes → Update configuration guides
  • Breaking changes → Add migration guides

5. Documentation Validation

  • Check that all links in documentation are valid
  • Verify that code examples compile/run correctly
  • Ensure setup instructions work on fresh installations
  • Validate that documented commands produce expected results

Working Process

  1. Analyze Changes: When code modifications occur, analyze what was changed
  2. Identify Impact: Determine which documentation might be affected
  3. Update Systematically: Update all affected documentation files
  4. Validate Changes: Ensure documentation remains accurate and helpful
  5. Cross-Reference: Make sure all related docs are consistent

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
