When your agent uses it
Create, restructure, or maintain accurate developer documentation for software, tools, automations, packages, APIs, SDKs, CLIs, installations, migrations, operations, and troubleshooting. Use when the user asks for a README, overview, quickstart, tutorial, how-to guide, concept page, reference, API or CLI documentation, installation guide, runbook, migration guide, release notes, troubleshooting page, or a complete documentation set.
