Can it help with API documentation?

Yes, it provides a specific pattern for documenting endpoints including method, path, parameters, request examples, and response/error codes.

How does it organize project documentation files?

It establishes a standardized /docs directory structure, separating API references, architecture records, and getting-started guides into a navigable hierarchy.

Does it manage the ADR lifecycle?

Yes, it tracks decision statuses from Proposed and Accepted to Deprecated or Superseded, maintaining a central index at docs/adr/README.md.

Which documentation standards does this skill support?

It implements the MADR (Markdown Any Decision Record) format for architecture, 'Keep a Changelog' for versioning, and Semantic Versioning (SemVer) for release management.
