Audits a repository for human-facing or operational documentation that drifted from code, config, interfaces, workflows, or repo structure changes. Use when a user says `check docs drift`, `docs are stale`, `update the runbook after this change`, or `what documentation is missing after this change`. Do NOT use for agent-guidance updates, generic documentation rewrites, or writing docs without evidence that they are stale.
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
# SWE Docs Drift Audit ## What This Skill Does Use this skill to find documentation that no longer matches the repository's current behavior. The goal is not to rewrite docs broadly. The goal is to compare the repo's current reality against its human-facing and operational documentation, then report where drift exists and what should change. Typical outputs include: - a short list of documentation gaps or mismatches - the code, config, or workflow evidence behind each gap - the smallest documentation updates that would close the gap - explicit notes for anything that looks stale but is not yet proven ## When To Use Use this skill when the user wants to: - check whether docs still match a recent code or config change - audit runbooks, READMEs, changelogs, or operational docs for drift - find missing docs after a workflow, interface, or structure change - prepare a bounded documentation update plan based on repo evidence ## Do Not Use Do not use this skill for: - updating agent-facing guidance such as `AGENTS.md` or `CLAUDE.md` - rewriting documentation for style alone - generic repo orientation with no docs-mismatch goal …

How to install
mdr add ckorhonen/swe-skills/swe:docs-drift-audit@sha256:e6d258aa62d532f1The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260404.9370c32, 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.
