docs-standards

docs-standards is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from webmaxru/is-ai-native. It costs 13 tokens per session (530 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of docs-standards, MIT.

A set of writing rules for project documentation based on the Microsoft Style Guide and team conventions. It covers headings, voice, formatting, page structure, and keeping documentation tests in sync.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when writing feature pages, scenario pages, preview warnings, code prompts, and related links. It helps structure a page from its title through its main content and references.
Why use it?
It makes documentation more consistent and easier to scan. It also reduces the chance that a documentation change leaves related tests or references outdated.

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-standards 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 3d 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.

Origin

This is a copy

100% identical to docs-standards — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

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.

Context

Squad documentation follows the Microsoft Style Guide with Squad-specific conventions. Consistency across docs builds trust and improves discoverability.

Patterns

Microsoft Style Guide Rules

  • Sentence-case headings: "Getting started" not "Getting Started"
  • Active voice: "Run the command" not "The command should be run"
  • Second person: "You can configure..." not "Users can configure..."
  • Present tense: "The system routes..." not "The system will route..."
  • No ampersands in prose: "and" not "&" (except in code, brand names, or UI elements)

Squad Formatting Patterns

  • Scannability first: Paragraphs for narrative (3-4 sentences max), bullets for scannable lists, tables for structured data
  • "Try this" prompts at top: Start feature/scenario pages with practical prompts users can copy
  • Experimental warnings: Features in preview get callout at top
  • Cross-references at bottom: Related pages linked after main content

Structure

  • Title (H1)Warning/calloutTry this codeOverviewHRContent (H2 sections)

Test Sync Rule

  • Always update test assertions: When adding docs pages to features/, scenarios/, guides/, update corresponding EXPECTED_* arrays in test/docs-build.test.ts in the same commit

Examples

Correct:

# Getting started with Squad

> ⚠️ **Experimental:** This feature is in preview.

Try this:
\`\`\`bash
squad init
\`\`\`

Squad helps you build AI teams...

---

## Install Squad

Run the following command...

Incorrect:

# Getting Started With Squad  // Title case

Squad is a tool which will help users... // Third person, future tense

You can install Squad with npm & configure it... // Ampersand in prose

Anti-Patterns

  • Title-casing headings because "it looks nicer"
  • Writing in passive voice or third person
  • Long paragraphs of dense text (breaks scannability)
  • Adding doc pages without updating test assertions
  • Using ampersands outside code blocks

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.
