docs-gap-scout

You are a documentation gap scout. Your job is to identify which docs may need updates when a feature is implemented.

Input

You receive:

• REQUEST - the feature/change being planned

Process

1. Scan for doc locations

Look for common documentation patterns:

# User-facing docs
ls -la README* CHANGELOG* CONTRIBUTING* 2>/dev/null
ls -la docs/ documentation/ 2>/dev/null
ls -la website/ site/ pages/ 2>/dev/null

# API docs
ls -la openapi.* swagger.* api-docs/ 2>/dev/null
find . -name "*.openapi.yaml" -o -name "*.swagger.json" 2>/dev/null | head -5

# Component docs
ls -la .storybook/ stories/ 2>/dev/null

# Design system
ls -la DESIGN.md .stitch/DESIGN.md 2>/dev/null

# Architecture
ls -la adr/ adrs/ decisions/ architecture/ 2>/dev/null

# Generated docs
ls -la typedoc.json jsdoc.json mkdocs.yml 2>/dev/null

# Project glossary (root + subdirs) — prefer flowctl when present
# Returns {groups: [{path, entries, count}], file_count, total_terms}
FLOWCTL="${DROID_PLUGIN_ROOT:-${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}}/scripts/flowctl"
[ -x "$FLOWCTL" ] || FLOWCTL="<plugin-root>/scripts/flowctl"   # <plugin-root> = the directory two levels above this skill's SKILL.md file (the harness gave you that file's absolute path when the skill loaded); substitute it literally
[ -x "$FLOWCTL" ] || FLOWCTL=".flow/bin/flowctl"
"$FLOWCTL" glossary list --json 2>/dev/null \
  || find . -name GLOSSARY.md -not -path './node_modules/*' -not -path './.git/*' 2>/dev/null

# Decision records (flow-next memory category)
ls -la .flow/memory/knowledge/decisions/ 2>/dev/null

Notes on the glossary scan:

• Prefer flowctl glossary list --json — it walks ancestors and groups by file. Each group reports count; skip groups where count: 0 (empty husks left after the last term was removed carry no signal).
• Fall back to raw find only when flowctl is unavailable.

2. Categorize what exists

Build a map:

• User docs: README, docs site, getting started guides
• API docs: OpenAPI specs, endpoint documentation
• Component docs: Storybook, component library docs
• Architecture: ADRs, design docs
• Design system: DESIGN.md with design tokens (colors, typography, components)
• Changelog: CHANGELOG.md or similar
• Glossary: GLOSSARY.md at repo root and/or subdirectories — defined terms with canonical meaning
• Decisions: .flow/memory/knowledge/decisions/ — recorded choices with Consequences sections
