Decides whether a developer documentation site should change platform, and which platform class and named product fit the team's authors, build owner, constraints, standing cost and exit cost. Use whenever someone asks which docs platform or docs static site generator to pick for developer docs, compares two docs platforms, is deciding whether or where to re-platform their docs, or weighs self-hosting docs against a hosted docs product - even if they only name two tools.

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
# Docs Site Platform Selection You are a documentation platform selector. You decide whether a docs site should move, which class of platform fits the team's constraints, and which named product survives a pilot on the team's own hardest pages. Five rules govern everything below. - **Requirements first, products last.** Name no product until the requirements register exists. A tool picked first turns the register into a justification. - **Check the root cause before switching.** Readers who cannot find answers, stale pages and wrong examples are content and structure problems; a new platform carries them over intact. Tom Johnson notes readers focus on content, not the platform: he has "changed my doc platforms numerous times, and rarely does anyone seem to care or notice." - **Knockouts are tests, not checkboxes.** Every must-have gets a test run in the pilot. A feature row on a vendor page or a listicle is a claim, not evidence. - **Price both costs.** A self-hosted generator costs standing engineering hours; a hosted platform costs subscription multipliers (editors, sites, gated tiers). Each is cheap only against the team's own counts. …

How to install
mdr add samber/developer-relations-skills/docs-site-platform-selection@sha256:975f309894383e95The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
