Individual skill

octocode-documentation

Use when docs are missing, wrong, stale, or badly written, or need a copyedit against the Google style guide: README, API reference, runbook, CONTRIBUTING, changelog, onboarding, AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md, ADR, migration guide, Diátaxis or whole-codebase restructure, docstrings, alt text, prose linting. Not for code, commits, or marketing copy. Code investigation → octocode-research; SKILL.md folders → octocode-skills.

# Octocode Documentation

Evidence-backed docs for humans and agents, written to the Google developer documentation style guide. Classify first. Gate writes. Prefer durable cross-refs over code dumps.

## Flow

`UNDERSTAND → RESEARCH → CLASSIFY → OUTLINE GATE → WRITE → STYLE → VERIFY`

UNDERSTAND names the deliverable, audience, and target paths. Compress when the request already names targets and type. Expand when claims need verification. A copyedit request starts at STYLE. Answer a single-term question ("is `allows you to` okay?") straight from `assets/google-word-list.tsv` — quote the guidance and stop.

## Rules

- Verify claims in the repository before asserting them. Invented commands, paths, APIs, and env vars are the one unrecoverable failure — omit or mark "Not verified in repository" instead.
- Pick one mode and load its routes before writing.
