Keep project docs aligned with recent code and feature changes — detect drift, update affected pages, and add release-relevant notes without rewriting unchanged sections.

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

# Doc Maintenance

Keep the documentation honest with minimum churn. The goal is alignment between docs and behavior, not stylistic rewrites or cosmetic re-organization. Reviewers should be able to read a diff and see "this updates docs to match recent behavior changes".

## When to use

- A PR or recent set of merges changed user-visible behavior: CLI flags, API shapes, default values, configuration keys, endpoints, environment variables, supported versions.
- A user-reported bug traced back to outdated documentation.
- A release is being cut and the docs need a pass against the merged commits.
- A new feature shipped but only the engineer's PR description describes how to use it.

## When not to use

- The change is internal-only (private helper rename, refactor) with no user-visible impact.
- You want to "improve the docs" without a behavior anchor. That is a separate scoped project, not maintenance — make a plan first.

## The pass

1. **Establish the baseline.** Get the commit range you are documenting against (since last release tag, since last merged-doc commit, or since a specific PR).

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add paperclipai/paperclip/doc-maintenance@sha256:fb0353386c5e5e5e

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260528.9eac727, 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.
