What documentation files does this skill handle?

It manages README.md, ARCHITECTURE.md, CLAUDE.md, Architecture Decision Records (ADRs), and per-module documentation guides.

How does the update-docs skill identify documentation gaps?

The skill audits the directory structure and codebase to find modules without READMEs, undocumented stateful components, and non-obvious logic flows that lack explanation.

Does it support visual documentation?

Yes, it specifically includes an agent dedicated to creating Mermaid diagrams to visualize state machines and complex data flows.

Will it overwrite my manual documentation?

The skill follows a review-and-approve workflow, providing a summary of created or updated items and flagging specific areas that require manual user input.

Audits and generates comprehensive codebase documentation using specialized parallel agents to maintain architectural clarity.

The update-docs skill automates the critical but often neglected task of technical documentation by deploying four specialized parallel agents. It performs a deep audit of your codebase to identify documentation gaps, updates stale READMEs, generates Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) based on git history, and creates Mermaid state diagrams for complex components. By focusing on high-level abstractions and architectural intent rather than just implementation details, this skill ensures your documentation reduces cognitive load and makes complex systems feel manageable and well-organized.
