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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00097 | $0.02418 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00039 | $0.00967 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00019 | $0.00484 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00010 | $0.00242 |
Grade A, and why
docs-as-marketing scanned grade A with 1 finding 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.

Documentation as Marketing
Documentation is often a developer's first meaningful interaction with your product. Great docs don't just explain—they market. They reduce friction, build trust, and turn curious visitors into active users who recommend your product to others.
Overview
Developer documentation serves multiple marketing functions:
- Acquisition: Docs rank in search and attract developers actively seeking solutions
- Activation: Well-structured quickstarts reduce time-to-value
- Retention: Comprehensive references keep developers building
- Referral: Developers share docs they love, not marketing pages
This skill covers the intersection of technical writing and developer marketing—creating documentation that serves both education and conversion goals.
Before You Start
Review the developer-audience-context skill to understand your target developers:
- What problems are they searching for solutions to?
- What's their technical sophistication level?
- What frameworks and languages do they use?
- Where do they currently look for answers?
Your documentation strategy should directly address these audience insights.
Information Architecture That Converts
The Four Types of Documentation
Structure your docs around the four types developers need:
| Type | Purpose | Marketing Function |
|---|---|---|
| Tutorials | Learning-oriented, step-by-step | Builds confidence, shows product value |
| How-to Guides | Task-oriented, problem-solving | Demonstrates capability breadth |
| Reference | Information-oriented, accurate | Proves product depth and reliability |
| Explanation | Understanding-oriented, conceptual | Establishes thought leadership |

What ships with it
1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.
