Maintain accurate, scannable Squad documentation with validated inventory and links.

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

## Context

Use this skill when adding, removing, or materially changing user-facing documentation. Squad
documentation should describe the product and its supported configuration, not surrounding
infrastructure presented as product behavior.

## Patterns

- Follow the Microsoft Style Guide: sentence-case headings, active voice, second person, and
  present tense unless established project voice requires an exception.
- Keep one canonical page per concept. Link to it rather than duplicating content, using the most
  specific stable anchor available.
- Choose paragraphs for explanation, parallel lists for scannable choices or steps, and tables for
  comparisons or reference data.
- When a page is added or removed, update the relevant expected-inventory arrays in
  `test/docs-build.test.ts` in the same change.
- Review behavior changes for documentation impact. Update affected docs or explicitly record why
  no user-facing documentation changes.

## Examples

`.github/PR_REQUIREMENTS.md` requires a docs-build test update for a new feature page.
`test/docs-build.test.ts` verifies the expected guide, feature, scenario, concept, and reference
inventories against the filesystem.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add bradygaster/squad/documentation-maintenance@sha256:014bc349e4e47de7

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260911.f640e80, 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.
