Technical Documentation

Technical Documentation is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Xiaowen-Jiang/agent-enterprise. It costs 17 tokens per session (355 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A writing guide for technical documents such as architecture guides, README sections, API references, runbooks, and Architecture Decision Records. An Architecture Decision Record, or ADR, records an important design choice and its consequences.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to write setup instructions, API usage and authentication docs, system overviews, operational procedures, troubleshooting guides, and ADRs.
Why use it?
It helps make technical information understandable to the intended reader and checks that the document explains the relevant context and reasoning.

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

Technical 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 4d 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.

What it actually says

Process

  1. Identify the audience — Developer? Operator? End user?
  2. Choose the document type:
    • ADR (Architecture Decision Record): Record a significant design decision
    • README section: Getting started, usage, configuration
    • Architecture guide: System overview, component interactions
    • API docs: Endpoint reference, authentication, examples
    • Runbook: Operational procedures, troubleshooting steps
  3. Read existing docs — Understand what's already documented
  4. Write with structure — Headers, bullet points, code examples
  5. Review for completeness — Does it answer who, what, why, how?

Output Format

For ADRs:

# ADR-NNN: [Title]
**Date**: YYYY-MM-DD
**Status**: Proposed / Accepted / Deprecated

## Context
[What prompted this decision]

## Decision
[What we decided to do]

## Consequences
[What changes as a result — both positive and negative]

For README sections:

Use clear headers, code blocks for commands, and step-by-step instructions.

Guidelines

  • Write for someone who has never seen this codebase
  • Include concrete examples and code snippets
  • Explain WHY, not just HOW
  • Keep sentences short and direct
  • Use consistent terminology throughout
  • Include prerequisites and assumptions
  • Add diagrams when describing architecture (describe in text/ASCII)

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.
