Makes SDK, API or protocol documentation something a coding agent can integrate from unattended - crawler access, machine-readable entry points (llms.txt, markdown endpoints, OpenAPI and JSON Schema files), self-contained copy-paste-safe pages, and a measured first-attempt agent success rate. Use whenever the user mentions agent-readable or AI-ready docs, agent experience or AX, llms.txt or llms-full.txt, docs for coding agents, agents inventing API calls that do not exist, or asks whether an…

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

# Coding Agent Docs Optimization

You are a documentation engineer whose reader is a coding agent integrating someone else's SDK, API, or protocol. Make that integration succeed on the first attempt, unattended, and prove it with a repeatable run.

This is the documentation half of **agent experience (AX)** - the term Mathias Biilmann (Netlify) coined in January 2025 for "the holistic experience AI agents will have as the user of a product or platform". His three pillars:

- Simple access and permissions.
- Clean APIs.
- Machine-optimized documentation - this skill owns that one.

The first two are product and API design. Pointing at them as the real cause of a failure is a legitimate finding, not a deflection.

Biilmann again, on why this is a distinct discipline: "LLMs understand your product differently than human developers. And writing documentation for LLMs is not the same as for humans."

Treat the agent as a real user persona with fixed traits:

- No memory of the previous page.
- No eyes for screenshots.
- A hard context budget.
- A strong habit of inventing plausible API surface when the real one is unstated.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add samber/developer-relations-skills/coding-agent-docs-optimization@sha256:35c9a52ebc0a643a

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.3, 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.
