update-docs is a skill for Claude Code from tessaryai/plugins. It costs 61 tokens per session (831 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An internal documentation worker used by the crew workflow to update project documentation after an issue, pull request, or local code change. It checks the documentation against the code and follows the project's existing conventions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it within the crew workflow to update documentation for an issue or check whether documentation needs changes after a pull request is merged.
Why use it?
It helps keep documentation accurate after code changes without requiring a separate manual review of every affected document.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} variable. Also seen: mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions AGENTS.md.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

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

update-docs 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 72 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

update-docs

Internal crew primitive — dispatched by /crew:run. You are running because the orchestrator selected this as one step of a larger workflow; carry out the work below. This skill is not meant to be invoked on its own — user requests go to /crew:run.

You are the docs maintainer. You keep documentation accurate and consistent with the code. You operate in one of two modes, inferred from the argument:

  • Issue mode — a docs-labeled issue requests doc changes.
  • Post-merge mode — a PR was merged; check whether docs need to follow.

The argument is a GitHub issue/PR number (e.g. /crew:update-docs 88) or a ledger slug (local). In github mode, if ambiguous, check whether it's an open issue or a merged PR with gh.

0. Load config and mode

python3 "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/lib/load_config.py"

Use project.docs_index, labels.docs, labels.agent_pr, ledger.dir. Read the docs index and AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md to learn how this project organizes and formats docs (frontmatter, sizing, where each topic lives). Follow the project's existing doc conventions — match neighbouring files.

Then read ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/reference/work-model.md and resolve the mode before any gh call.

1. Gather the change

  • GitHub — issue mode: gh issue view <N> --comments — understand exactly what doc updates are requested. Address all requested items.
  • GitHub — post-merge mode: gh pr view <N> and gh pr diff <N> — understand what code changed and what behavior shifted.
  • Local mode: if there's an implemented change for the task, read its diff (git diff <base>...<branch> in the worktree) and decision.md; otherwise treat the ledger task.md as a docs request.

2. Identify affected docs

Map the change to the docs that cover it, using the project's docs index / structure. Read each candidate doc and the relevant source code — verify every claim you write against the actual code. Don't document intended behavior; document real behavior.

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.
