How do I know which documents need to be synchronized?

The skill references docs/DOCUMENT_DEPENDENCIES.md to identify which instance files are paired with specific templates.

What specific placeholders does the docs-sync skill look for?

It identifies seven patterns including [e.g., ...], [X], [TODO], [Project Name], [GITHUB_REPO_URL], [Repository], and [Framework].

Can I use this skill in a headless environment or CI pipeline?

Yes, by using the --json flag, the skill provides machine-readable output ideal for automated testing environments.

What happens if my documentation is older than 90 days?

The validator will flag the document as stale (Exit 1), prompting a manual review to ensure the content hasn't drifted from the current codebase.

Aprendizaje y Documentación

Automates the validation of document template-instance synchronization to ensure technical documentation remains consistent, accurate, and free of placeholders.

Acerca de

The Docs Sync Validator is a specialized skill designed to maintain the integrity of project documentation by auditing the relationship between templates and their derived instances. It performs deep scans for seven specific placeholder patterns, such as [TODO] or [GITHUB_REPO_URL], while simultaneously verifying that all relative links point to existing files and that synchronization dates are within a 90-day threshold. By utilizing a central dependency manifest, this skill helps developers prevent documentation drift and ensures that audit plans or project guides are production-ready before major releases or AI-driven audits.

Características Principales

Validates all internal relative links to prevent broken documentation references
Monitors document freshness by flagging sync dates older than 90 days
Supports verbose logging for precise line-number identification of issues
Provides JSON output for seamless integration into automated CI/CD workflows
1 GitHub stars
Detects seven critical placeholder patterns including example and value markers

Casos de Uso

Preventing placeholder content from leaking into production documentation via CI/CD gates
Performing quarterly documentation audits to synchronize instance files with updated templates
Validating documentation consistency before executing multi-AI security or code audits
