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 Strategy

Decide what gets documented, where, by whom, and how it stays fresh. Stack-agnostic. Applies to internal team docs, product docs, runbooks, READMEs, and knowledge bases.

---

## When to use

- Setting up documentation for a new team or product
- Auditing existing documentation
- Fixing stale or scattered docs
- Choosing a documentation tool or platform
- Defining what gets documented and what doesn't
- Establishing maintenance cadence
- Scoping technical writing work
- Designing onboarding documentation (use alongside `team-onboarding-playbook`)

## When NOT to use

- Writing the actual content of a single document (use `content-and-copy`)
- Customer-facing knowledge base copy (use `content-strategy`)
- Code comments and inline documentation (covered by `code-review-web`)
- One-off blog posts or articles (use `content-and-copy`)

---

## Required inputs

- The audience (internal, external, customer, dev, exec)
- Existing docs and their state (where, what shape, last updated)
- Team size and growth trajectory
- The kinds of work that produce documentation (engineering, product, ops, support)
- Tools currently in use

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add rampstackco/claude-skills/documentation-strategy@sha256:c9313863695c971c

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260507.ac2b078, 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.
