Documentation Drift Review
Own change-scoped documentation accuracy through separate inspection and repair stages.
Workflow
- Confirm the changed behavior and whether the task authorizes documentation edits or only a read-only drift report.
- Identify canonical, generated, mirrored, and external documentation describing the changed surface.
- Compare implementation with README files, instructions, APIs, schemas, operational docs, examples, templates, and command help in scope.
- Report concrete drift with the affected claim, implementation evidence, canonical owner, and required correction.
- When edits are authorized, update only directly affected canonical documents in their existing style.
- Change generated documentation or help at its source and regenerate it through the repository's established command.
- For authorized prose edits, use
english-text-review on the final changed text and apply material findings without expanding the drift scope.
Use docs-review for broader documentation quality, repo-context-document for deliberate docs/context/ work, plan-update for plan mechanics, and spec-update for semantic contract decisions.
Do not restructure documentation, hand-edit generated content, change product behavior, or modify external documentation without authority.
Finish with changed documents, an evidenced no-change result, or unresolved owner decisions.
