What is the folder structure used by this skill?

Knowledge is organized into three main directories: docs/domain/ for business logic, docs/patterns/ for technical solutions, and docs/interfaces/ for external API contracts.

How does it handle documentation that has become outdated?

It includes a maintenance protocol that categorizes staleness based on git modification times and provides a checklist to sync documentation during code implementation.

Can this skill update existing files or only create new ones?

It proactively prefers updating existing documentation. If related information is found during the deduplication phase, the skill uses edit tools to enhance the current file rather than fragmenting knowledge.

How does Knowledge Capture prevent duplicate documentation?

The skill follows a strict 'Deduplication Protocol' that uses grep and find commands to search existing docs for keywords before proposing any new file creation.

Does it support standardized templates?

Yes, the skill is designed to use specific templates for patterns, interfaces, and domain rules to ensure every document includes context, examples, and proper references.
