Alembic — Wiki Documentation Generation
This skill guides the agent through generating structured Wiki documentation from the Alembic knowledge base using the alembic_wiki MCP tool.
When to use this skill
- User asks to generate project documentation or wiki
- After a cold-start bootstrap completes — produce docs from newly captured knowledge
- When the user says "generate docs" / "write wiki" / "create documentation"
- After significant knowledge base changes — refresh documentation
MCP Tools
| Tool | Operation | Description |
|---|
alembic_wiki | plan | Plan topics + data packages (returns topic list + per-topic data for writing) |
alembic_wiki | finalize | Complete generation (write meta.json, dedup check, validate completeness) |
alembic_search | — | Search knowledge for additional context during writing |
alembic_knowledge | get | Retrieve full Recipe content for reference |
Workflow
Step 1: Plan topics
{
"operation": "plan",
"language": "en"
}
Returns:
- topics[] — Recommended documentation topics based on knowledge base content
- dataPackages — Per-topic data bundles (related Recipes, code patterns, architecture info)
- sessionId — Session identifier for the finalize step
Step 2: Write articles
For each topic in the plan:
- Read the dataPackage for that topic
- Write a well-structured Markdown article to the wiki directory (
Alembic/wiki/)
- Use Recipe content as source of truth — cite Recipe titles
- Follow the structure: Overview → Details → Code Examples → Related Topics
Step 3: Finalize
{
"operation": "finalize",
"sessionId": "<from plan>",
"articlesWritten": ["Alembic/wiki/topic-1.md", "Alembic/wiki/topic-2.md"]
}
This triggers:
- meta.json generation — topic index with cross-references
- Dedup check — detect overlapping articles
- Completeness validation — ensure all planned topics are covered
Writing guidelines
- Use clear headings (
##, ###) — helps search and scanning
- Include a summary section at the top of each article
- Reference file paths and class names concretely — improves search relevance
- Cite Recipe triggers (e.g.,
@bilidili-feature-url-routing) as knowledge sources
- For architecture docs: Context → Design → Implementation → Trade-offs
- For pattern docs: When to Use → How to Use → Code Example → Anti-patterns
