mcpp: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/mcpp-docs-style/SKILL.md

mcpp-docs-style is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from mcpp-community/mcpp. It costs 118 tokens per session (9,371 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A writing guide for English and Simplified Chinese documentation, README files, and long design records. It defines a precise, professional style and lists wording and heading patterns to avoid.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when writing or editing documentation, README files, or external sections of design records. It does not apply to code comments or commit messages.
Why use it?
It helps keep project documentation consistent and factual, so readers can find accurate information without interpreting conversational or exaggerated wording.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one. Also seen: installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents).

This is mcpp-community/mcpp's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on mcpp itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything mcpp configures →

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is bash .github/tools/check_docs_style.sh.

Reuse

Borrowing it

Nothing to install: this file belongs to mcpp-community/mcpp. Take a copy, put it at the same path in your own repository, and replace the rules that are about this project with yours.

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

mcpp-docs-style 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.

mcpp 文档规范

本规范回答六个问题:这份文档的归属(第一节)、为什么要有这一章(第二节)、 怎么写(第三至七节)、它必须对得上什么(第八节)、 它欠多少覆盖(第十节)、怎么评审它(第十四节)。

最核心的一条在第一节:用户文档是已实现功能的使用手册,不是设计说明。

代码注释与 commit message 不受本规范约束 —— 它们的读者、篇幅与目的都不同, 那里允许并鼓励叙述「为什么」以及实测过程。

一、文档的归属:三棵树与各自的准入判据

一份文档属于哪棵树,由读者决定,不由篇幅或主题决定。

树 读者 准入判据(问自己这一句) 稳定性
docs/** 手上有任务的人 手上有这个任务的人,没有它做不完 增量;旧拼法留作别名
docs/specs/** 对着机制做实现的人:索引作者、下游工具、贡献者 没有它,两个独立实现会不一致 编号 + 版本 + 状态机
.agents/docs/** 做这次改动的人,以及以后问「为什么是这样」的人 做了一个决定,理由否则会丢 落地即不可变
.agents/skills/** 照着做的人或 agent 这是步骤,不是解释 随流程变

用户文档是已实现功能的使用手册

这是本规范最核心的一条。

docs/** 服务的是要把事情做成的用户。它写 mcpp 已经实现的东西怎么用, 不写这些东西为什么被设计成这样,也不写什么设计了、什么还没设计。

不写进用户文档的四类内容,它们全部属于 .agents/docs/:

  1. 设计理由与取舍 ——「为什么是一个机制而不是两个」「这个边界由模型的性质 决定而不是本文档的雄心」。
  2. 被否掉的替代 ——「三种替代方案都不能去掉它」「某原语写出来又撤回了」。
  3. 路线图与设计状态 ——「计划中」「将来会支持」「已设计未实现」「下一步是」。 用户文档里一个能力只有两种状态:能用(带版本下界)与不支持(一句话)。
  4. 实现内幕 —— 除非用户不知道它就会用错。

判据(逐段问一遍):把这一段删掉,读者还能不能正确地用?

  • 能 → 删掉,或移进设计记录。
  • 不能 → 它不是设计论证,是使用信息;改写成事实陈述,去掉论证语气。

边界写成事实,不写成论证。 「当前边界」一节(第十节要求它必须存在)是一份 清单,不是一段说理:

不采用 采用
OpenMP offload 与 stdpar 没有可分的岛,因此落在这套机制的论域之外 —— 这是模型的性质,而不是本文档雄心的缺口。 未支持:OpenMP offload、stdpar、Metal、HIP 的 AMD 平台。
之所以不发出 accel 字段,是因为该字段的含义是「实测所得」,而 mcpp 目前无从测量,把声明写进一个语义为实测的字段会让身份说谎。 mcpp pack 不产出 accel 字段;需要它的发布方在描述符里手写。

理由就是不给。要理由的读者是另一类读者,他去读设计记录 —— 而用户文档 不链接设计记录(见上面的引用方向)。

已测状态(2026-09-08):九个用户章节含设计论证短语,05 21 处、13 8 处、 20 6 处,20 另有两个设计型标题。清理按 .agents/docs/2026-09-08-documentation-architecture-three-trees.md 的分阶段进行。

另外三条最容易被违反的推论

  1. 用户章节不记历史。 「过去是 X,2026.8.16 起改成 Y」是设计记录的句子。 章节陈述今天是什么;版本相关写下界(2026.9.6.5+)。
  2. 设计记录落地后不再编辑,除了追加状态行或一个具名带日期的更正块。 就地改写会让一份「某时刻的记录」悄悄变成「对现在的断言」。
  3. 用户章节里出现「必须 / 禁止」,说明内容属于规范。 把它移进 docs/specs/,章节引用它。只有规范有规范性语气。

引用方向是规则,不是习惯

docs/          ──▶ docs/specs/        允许:引用精确语义
docs/          ─╳─ .agents/docs/      禁止
docs/specs/    ──▶ .agents/docs/      允许,仅限元数据表里的溯源行
docs/specs/    ──▶ docs/              允许
.agents/docs/  ──▶ 任何               允许
代码注释        ──▶ docs/ 或 specs/    允许,且被引用的文件必须存在

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.
