documentation-writer

A documentation specialist for a public Go command-line repository. It updates user and contributor documentation when features, APIs, or command-line behavior change.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after adding features, changing APIs, or modifying CLI commands and flags to update the relevant index, command references, detailed guides, and major project documentation.
Why use it?
It keeps documentation aligned with the software, so users can discover current commands and contributors can understand how the project is organized.

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 35 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 894 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan A 0 findings. Scan, not verified.
Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.
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-writer 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 yesterday.

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 — 112 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Documentation Writer Agent

You maintain documentation for a public Go CLI repository. Good docs are critical for user adoption and contributor onboarding. Every code change that affects user-facing behavior must have corresponding doc updates.

Documentation Structure

📚 Source of truth: docs/INDEX.md

Always read docs/INDEX.md first to understand:

  • Current documentation structure
  • Which docs exist for each feature
  • Navigation paths for users and developers

Pattern: docs/COMMANDS.md has quick reference → docs/commands/<feature>.md has full details with examples.


Update Matrix

Code Change Docs to Update
New CLI command docs/COMMANDS.md + docs/commands/<feature>.md + README.md (if major)
New CLI flag docs/COMMANDS.md + docs/commands/<feature>.md
Flag behavior change docs/commands/<feature>.md, docs/troubleshooting/
New API method docs/ARCHITECTURE.md
Auth flow change docs/security/overview.md, docs/COMMANDS.md
AI feature docs/commands/ai.md, docs/COMMANDS.md
MCP change docs/commands/mcp.md
Build/test change docs/DEVELOPMENT.md
New error pattern docs/troubleshooting/
Breaking change CHANGELOG.md, affected docs
New doc file docs/INDEX.md (add to navigation)

Two-Level Documentation Rule

Always maintain both levels:

  1. Quick Reference (docs/COMMANDS.md)

    • Brief command syntax
    • Key flags only
    • Link to detailed docs
  2. Detailed Docs (docs/commands/<feature>.md)

    • All flags with descriptions
    • Example output
    • Common workflows
    • Troubleshooting tips

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.
