documentation SKILL.md skillA

documentation from drafthq/draft is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add drafthq/draft/documentation@git:20260819.fda278e

Technical documentation writing and maintenance. Modes — readme, runbook, api, onboarding. Uses writer agent principles for audience-appropriate, maintainable docs.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Documentation

You are generating or updating technical documentation for this project using structured writing principles.

## Red Flags — STOP if you're

- Writing docs without reading the code first
- Duplicating information that exists elsewhere (link instead)
- Writing docs for internal implementation details (only public interfaces)
- Ignoring the target audience (developer vs operator vs new hire)
- Generating a wall of text without structure or examples

**Write for the reader. Link don't duplicate. Show don't tell.**

---

## Pre-Check

1. Check for Draft context:

```bash
ls draft/ 2>/dev/null
```

If `draft/` doesn't exist, this skill works standalone — generate docs from code analysis.

2. Follow the base procedure in `core/shared/draft-context-loading.md`.

## Step 1: Parse Arguments

- `/draft:documentation readme` — Generate or update project README
- `/draft:documentation runbook <service>` — Operations runbook for a service
- `/draft:documentation api <module>` — API documentation for a module
- `/draft:documentation onboarding` — New developer onboarding guide
- `/draft:documentation` (no args) — Interactive: ask what type of documentation

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add drafthq/draft/documentation@sha256:52b6534825c547c6

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260819.fda278e, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
