Documentation Patterns
Templates and opinionated structures for technical documentation -- READMEs, Architecture Decision Records, OpenAPI specs, changelogs, and writing style. Each category has individual rule files in rules/ loaded on-demand.
Quick Reference
| Category | Rule | Impact | When to Use |
|---|---|---|---|
| README | 1 | HIGH | Starting a project, onboarding contributors |
| ADR | 1 | HIGH | Recording architecture decisions |
| API Docs | 1 | HIGH | Documenting REST APIs with OpenAPI 3.1 |
| Changelog | 1 | MEDIUM | Maintaining release history |
| Writing Style | 1 | MEDIUM | Any technical writing task |
Total: 5 rules across 5 categories
Quick Start
## README Skeleton
# Project Name
Brief description -> Quick Start -> Installation -> Usage -> API -> Config -> Contributing -> License
## ADR Format
# ADR-001: Title
Status -> Context -> Decision -> Consequences (positive/negative) -> References
## OpenAPI Minimum
openapi: 3.1.0 with info, paths, components/schemas, error responses
## Changelog Entry
## [1.2.0] - 2026-03-05
### Added / Changed / Deprecated / Removed / Fixed / Security
## Writing Rule of Thumb
Active voice, present tense, second person, one idea per sentence

expect
Diff-aware AI browser testing — analyzes git changes, generates targeted test plans, and executes them via agent-browser. Reads git diff to determine what changed, maps changes to affected pages via route map, generates a test plan scoped to the diff, and runs it with pass/fail reporting. Use when testing UI changes, verifying PRs before merge, running regression checks on changed components, or validating that recent code changes don't break the user-facing experience.
yonatangross/orchestkit
github-operations
GitHub CLI operations for issues, PRs, milestones, and Projects v2. Covers gh commands, REST API patterns, and automation scripts. Use when managing GitHub issues, PRs, milestones, or Projects with gh.
yonatangross/orchestkit
chain-patterns
Chain patterns for CC 2.1.71 pipelines — MCP detection, handoff files, checkpoint-resume, worktree agents, CronCreate monitoring. Use when building multi-phase pipeline skills. Loaded via skills: field by pipeline skills (fix-issue, implement, brainstorm, verify). Not user-invocable.

storybook-mcp-integration
Storybook MCP server integration for component-aware AI development. Covers 6 tools across 3 toolsets (dev, docs, testing): component discovery via list-all-documentation/get-documentation, story previews via preview-stories, and automated testing via run-story-tests. Use when generating components that should reuse existing Storybook components, running component tests via MCP, or previewing stories in chat.
yonatangross/orchestkit
component-search
Search 21st.dev component registry for production-ready React components. Finds components by natural language description, filters by framework and style system, returns ranked results with install instructions. Use when looking for UI components, finding alternatives to existing components, or sourcing design system building blocks.
yonatangross/orchestkit
ai-ui-generation
AI-assisted UI generation patterns for json-render, v0, Bolt, and Cursor workflows. Covers prompt engineering for component generation, review checklists for AI-generated code, design token injection, refactoring for design system conformance, and CI gates for quality assurance. Use when generating UI components with AI tools, rendering multi-surface MCP visual output, reviewing AI-generated code, or integrating AI output into design systems.
