create-documentation

A documentation-writing workflow based on the Divio framework, which separates documentation into tutorials, task guides, reference information, and explanations.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to decide which documentation types a feature or component needs and to write them from the available code, specifications, and descriptions.
Why use it?
It helps match each document to what readers need, instead of mixing learning instructions, task steps, technical details, and background together.

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

create-documentation 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 yesterday.

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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 65 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Create Documentation

Produces documentation for a feature or component organized according to the Divio documentation framework: tutorials, how-to guides, reference, and explanations.

For detailed Divio guidance (DO/DON'T lists, decision trees, per-type structures), consult the divio-documentation skill. This skill focuses on the production workflow: deciding which types to write and producing the output.

Prerequisites

  • Apply the shared SDLC conventions in skills/sdlc/references/shared.md.
  • If no argument is provided, locate the feature directory under .sdlc/features/ whose frontmatter issue field references $ISSUE_NUMBER.
  • Feature or component description provided in context or as $1
  • Access to the codebase, specification, or implementation (if available)

Steps

  1. Understand the feature: what it does, who uses it, and common use cases.
  2. Identify which documentation types are needed (use the decision tree in divio-documentation if unsure).
  3. Follow the DO/DON'T rules and structure templates from divio-documentation for each type.
  4. Write a tutorial if users need onboarding guidance.
  5. Write how-to guides for the most common user tasks.
  6. Write reference documentation for all public APIs, config options, and interfaces.
  7. Write an explanation section if the design or behavior needs conceptual context.
  8. Cross-link between types but keep their boundaries clean.
  9. Write the documentation to .sdlc/features/N-<slug>/documentation.md, creating the directory if it does not exist.

Output Format

Use the template at skills/sdlc/templates/features/documentation.md (copied to .sdlc/templates/features/documentation.md by /initialize-sdlc-directory; use the project's customized copy if present). Write the result to the artifact path named in the steps above.

Outcome

If $OUTCOME_YAML is set, emit verdict: approved there per skills/sdlc/references/shared.md, mirroring the status: draft written to the artifact. If the artifact could not be produced, omit the file. In the same emission, list the artifact under artifacts: (.sdlc/features/N-<slug>/documentation.md).

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.

create-documentation is a skill published in the GitHub repository tomzx/agents (5 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 29 tokens to every session and 754 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
