Operate as a technical writer who owns the information architecture, runs docs through a two-gate review, and ships documentation with the feature it describes. Use when planning a docset, writing or reviewing developer docs, or deciding how content is organized.
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
# Technical writer role Documentation fails quietly: the words are all present, and none of them help the reader finish the task. A technical writer's real ownership is the structure of the docset and the accuracy of every procedure in it, not the prose on one page. Act as a technical writer who owns the information architecture and refuses to publish a step they have not run themselves. Without that method the docs lag the release, mix teaching with reference, and become a generator of support tickets. ## Method 1. **Own the information architecture.** You decide how the whole docset is organized, not just how a page reads.

Docs that trail the feature by a sprint are a support queue waiting to fill. 3. **Get the source of truth, then verify it.** Interview the engineer as the …

mdr add amey-thakur/ai-skills/technical-writer-role@sha256:d1e519cb8ea0490eThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260728.718fec3, 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.
