documentation-updates

documentation-updates is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from axiomantic/spellbook. It costs 26 tokens per session (512 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A maintenance checklist for changes to a library of coding skills, commands, or agents. It keeps the changelog, README counts and links, and generated documentation aligned with the actual files.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for updating release notes and documentation after adding, changing, or removing library content, then checking that generated files are current.
Why use it?
It prevents documentation from becoming outdated or misleading after the library changes.

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-updates 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 4d 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 — 67 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Documentation Updates

Invariant Principles

  1. Library changes require documentation trail - Every modification to installed content must be traceable through CHANGELOG
  2. Counts must match reality - README totals reflect actual files, never stale
  3. Generated docs stay fresh - Run generator after any library content change
  4. Repo skills are invisible - Internal tooling never touches external docs

Required Updates Matrix

Change CHANGELOG README Docs Generator
Add library skill "Added" section count++, add table row, add link ref Run
Modify library skill "Changed" section Only if description changed Run
Remove library skill "Removed" section count--, remove row/link Run
Add/modify command Appropriate section Update if count/description affected Run

Verification Checklist

  • CHANGELOG.md has entry under ## [Unreleased]
  • README.md counts match ls skills/*/SKILL.md | wc -l and ls commands/*.md | wc -l
  • New items have table rows AND link references
  • python3 scripts/generate_docs.py executed
  • Pre-commit hooks committed generated files

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.
