Full-repo documentation sweep. Fans out one sub-agent per module / docs subdir / README cluster to (1) fix stale claims that no longer match the code, (2) remove duplication, and (3) compact verbose prose. Use when the user runs "/fix-stale-doc", asks to "fix stale docs", or "clean up documentation".

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

# /fix-stale-doc — documentation sweep

A full-repo maintenance pass over the docs. Three goals, applied to every doc:

1. **De-stale** — fix claims the code no longer supports: dead file paths, renamed
   functions/types, removed flags / env vars / build tasks / CLI subcommands, changed behavior.
2. **De-duplicate** — collapse repeated content. One canonical home; replace the copy with a
   one-line pointer.
3. **Compact** — tighten verbose phrasing so docs stay digestible for humans. Fewer words, same
   facts.

Run this when nothing in particular changed but the docs have drifted as a whole. (Distinct from a
change-driven sync that updates docs to match one specific diff.)

## The audience rule (read first)

There are two doc audiences. Treat them differently:

- **Human docs** — `README.md`, everything under `docs/**`.
- **LLM docs** — `AGENTS.md`, `CLAUDE.md`, and module/package-level doc comments (e.g. a Go
  `doc.go`, a Python module docstring, a JSDoc header).

Deduplicate **within** an audience. Duplication **across** audiences is **allowed** (not required):
an `AGENTS.md` may restate a fact a `README.md` also covers when the agent genuinely needs it
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add fabienjuif/agentic-skills/fix-stale-doc@sha256:f7c26627ada07012

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260718.cfba5c5, 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.
