docs-system

docs-system is a skill for Claude Code from bestdeejay-design/agent-skills. It costs 122 tokens per session (761 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A documentation guide that routes work between product documents, which explain why and what, and project documents, which explain how. It also defines writing order, completeness levels, and a checklist.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to decide which documentation to create, in what order, and how much detail is needed for a project’s size.
Why use it?
It prevents teams from mixing product decisions with implementation details and helps reveal missing documentation.

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

docs-system 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 1mo 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.

Docs System — meta-guide & router

This skill is now the meta-guide. The two branches live in focused skills: load them directly. Use this skill for the big picture: which docs to write, in which order, and how complete the set must be.

Two branches of documentation

Branch Answers Skill
Product docs — «why» and «what» VISION → PRD → ROADMAP → FEATURES docs-product
Project docs — «how» README/ENTRY/ARCHITECTURE/ADR/contracts/tests + REFERENCE map docs-project

Rule: product docs answer «why» and «what»; engineering docs answer «how». If a doc has no reader and no question it answers — it does not belong.

When to use this skill (router)

  • The task is about the documentation SYSTEM as a whole: what to write, in what order, how complete.
  • The phases / levels / completeness gates need to be applied.
  • The task is clearly product OR engineering → load the branch directly instead.

Order and levels

  • Phase order (when to write each doc): references/order.md.
  • Levels L1/L2/L3 (how deep a doc set must be for the system size): references/levels.md.
  • Completeness checklist (what a complete doc set looks like): references/completeness.md.

Golden rules

  • Nothing is written "from the end": VISION → PRD → ROADMAP → FEATURES, then engineering docs.
  • Contracts (OpenAPI/AsyncAPI) are written BEFORE code.
  • The map (REFERENCE.md) is written last — it describes everything above it.
  • Example monorepo that follows all rules: examples/example-monorepo/.
  • Skill roadmap: ROADMAP.md.

Removal plan

Keep as the meta-guide (not deprecated — it still carries order/levels/ completeness). The two branches are the focused entry points.

Boundaries

  • Do not use to author one document branch directly; route to docs-product or docs-project.

Evidence and completion gate

Ground recommendations in the supplied repository or brief. State assumptions, missing inputs, and unresolved risks. Return a concrete artifact or checklist with an owner/action for each open item, then verify that the result answers the requested goal rather than merely repeating the framework.

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.
