Detect documentation drift against code changes, score staleness, validate API docs via AST parsing, and audit link integrity. Use when docs fall out of sync with code, preparing releases, running CI doc gates, or auditing doc accuracy.

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 Drift Detector

The agent detects documentation drift by mapping code directories to their docs, comparing git modification histories, extracting Python function signatures via AST, validating every markdown link and anchor, and scoring freshness on a weighted 0-100 scale. All four CLI tools use the Python standard library only.

## Core Capabilities

- **Full drift analysis** — map docs to code, compare git histories, detect renamed files, version drift, broken references, and structural gaps; classify each issue by category, severity, and fix type.
- **API doc validation** — AST-based extraction of Python signatures/classes compared against markdown API docs (undocumented items, phantom docs, parameter mismatches, deprecations).
- **Staleness scoring** — weighted 0-100 freshness score across five dimensions with CI threshold gates and README-focused mode.
- **Link integrity audit** — validate local files, anchors, cross-document anchors, images, case-sensitivity, and duplicate anchors; optional external URL checks.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add borghei/claude-skills/doc-drift-detector@sha256:4457bd694190a2b6

The line at the top of this page pins the label v2.1.0, 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.
