Skill v1.0.0

version: "1.0.0" name: skillshare-update-docs description: >- Update website docs to match recent code changes, cross-validating every flag against source. Use this skill whenever the user asks to: update documentation, sync docs with code, document a new flag or command, fix stale docs, or update the README. This skill covers all website/docs/ categories (commands, reference, understand, how-to, troubleshooting, getting-started) plus the built-in skill description and README. If you just implemented a feature and need to update docs, this is the skill to use. Never manually edit website docs without cross-validating flags against Go source first. argument-hint: "[command-name | commit-range]" metadata: targets: [claude, universal]

Sync website documentation with recent code changes. $ARGUMENTS specifies scope: a command name (e.g., install), commit range, or omit to auto-detect from git diff HEAD~1.

Scope: This skill updates website/docs/, the built-in skill (skills/skillshare/), and README.md. It does NOT write Go code (use implement-feature) or CHANGELOG (use changelog).

Before acting, run python3 scripts/ai-context.py documentation. That topic is the source of truth for documentation ownership, code cross-validation and verification; this skill retains the update workflow.

Workflow

Step 1: Detect Changes

# Auto-detect recently changed code
git diff HEAD~1 --stat -- cmd/skillshare/ internal/
 
# Also check for structural changes that affect concept/reference docs
git diff HEAD~1 --stat -- internal/config/targets.yaml internal/audit/rules.yaml

Map changed files to affected documentation using this guide:

Command docs (website/docs/reference/commands/):

• cmd/skillshare/<cmd>.go → website/docs/reference/commands/<cmd>.md
• Flag changes, new subcommands, output format changes

Concept docs (website/docs/understand/):

• internal/audit/ → understand/audit-engine.md
• internal/sync/ → understand/sync-modes.md, understand/source-and-targets.md
• internal/install/tracked.go → understand/tracked-repositories.md
• internal/config/ → understand/declarative-manifest.md
• .skillshare/ project config changes → understand/project-skills.md
• skills/skillshare/SKILL.md format → understand/skill-format.md

Reference docs (website/docs/reference/):

• internal/config/targets.yaml → reference/targets/
• internal/audit/rules.yaml → reference/commands/audit-rules.md
• reference/appendix/ for CLI quick-reference tables

How-to guides (website/docs/how-to/):

• New workflow patterns → how-to/daily-tasks/, how-to/advanced/, how-to/recipes/
• Sharing/org features → how-to/sharing/

Troubleshooting (website/docs/troubleshooting/):

• New error messages → troubleshooting/common-errors.md
• FAQ additions → troubleshooting/faq.md

Getting started (website/docs/getting-started/):

• Breaking changes to init/install flow → getting-started/first-sync.md
• Quick reference updates → getting-started/quick-reference.md

Learn (website/docs/learn/):

• New target integrations → learn/with-<tool>.md

Step 2: Cross-Validate Flags

For each affected command:

1. Read the Go source to extract actual flags and behavior. Commands parse arguments by hand, so flags appear as string literals ("--force") in the parse function of cmd/skillshare/<cmd>.go; ss <cmd> --help inside the devcontainer lists them too.

1. Read the corresponding doc page:

`` website/docs/reference/commands/<cmd>.md ``

1. Compare and fix:

• New flags in code → add to docs with usage example
• Removed flags from code → remove from docs
• Changed behavior → update description
• Every `--flag` in docs must appear as a string literal in the command's source

Step 3: Update Documentation

Apply changes following existing doc conventions:

• Match heading structure of neighboring doc pages
• Include CLI examples with expected output
• Keep flag tables consistent in format

Step 4: Check Built-in Skill

If changes affect user-visible CLI behavior:

1. Read skills/skillshare/SKILL.md
2. Check if the built-in skill description needs updating
3. Verify description stays under 1024 characters (CodeX limit)

Step 5: Check README

Review README.md for sections that may need updates:

• Recent Updates callout
• Why skillshare bullet points (5 selling points)
• Highlights section (core feature examples)

Step 6: Build Verification

docker exec "$CONTAINER" bash -c 'cd /workspace/website && npm run build'   # as the Website Pages workflow builds

Confirm no broken links or build errors.

Step 7: Report

List all changes made with rationale:

== Documentation Updates ==
 
Modified:
  website/docs/reference/commands/install.md
    - Added --into flag documentation
    - Updated install examples
 
  skills/skillshare/SKILL.md
    - Added --into to feature list (desc: 987/1024 chars)
 
Build: PASS (no broken links)

Rules

Apply the documentation topic. Keep this adapter scoped to documentation; use the implementation or release workflows for other changes.
