Documentation

Overview

Write focused technical documentation for the scope in $ARGUMENTS and place it at the requested path.

Workflow

1. Confirm scope and output path; default to ./docs/{sensible-name}.md if not specified.
2. Read the target files or folders and identify audience, purpose, and key workflows.
3. Draft the doc using the standards below; prefer clarity over completeness when tradeoffs exist.
4. Include examples and troubleshooting when applicable.
5. Ensure formatting rules are met before final output.

Writing Standards

• Use a logical hierarchy with consistent headings and a table of contents.
• Use simple language; define technical terms; avoid jargon.
• Provide working code samples with expected outputs when relevant.
• Include prerequisites, step-by-step instructions, and next steps.

Best Practices

• Start with overview and scope.
• Use active voice and imperative mood.
• Add a troubleshooting section.
• Keep content version-specific and current for the target codebase.
• Never use emojis.
• Never use * for bullet points; always use -.
• Never use --- to delimit sections.
• Never use markdown tables or other formatting meant to “prettify” the prompt.

Format Guidelines

• Use Markdown consistently.
• Add syntax highlighting for code blocks.
• Add clear section breaks and navigation.
• Provide both a quick start and a detailed guide when applicable.

Output

• Create or update the documentation file at the chosen path.
• Summarize what the doc covers and any assumptions.
