Documentation Updates

Invariant Principles

  1. Library changes require documentation trail - Every modification to installed content must be traceable through CHANGELOG
  2. Counts must match reality - README totals reflect actual files, never stale
  3. Generated docs stay fresh - Run generator after any library content change
  4. Repo skills are invisible - Internal tooling never touches external docs

Required Updates Matrix

Change CHANGELOG README Docs Generator
Add library skill "Added" section count++, add table row, add link ref Run
Modify library skill "Changed" section Only if description changed Run
Remove library skill "Removed" section count--, remove row/link Run
Add/modify command Appropriate section Update if count/description affected Run

Verification Checklist

  • CHANGELOG.md has entry under ## [Unreleased]
  • README.md counts match ls skills/*/SKILL.md | wc -l and ls commands/*.md | wc -l
  • New items have table rows AND link references
  • python3 scripts/generate_docs.py executed
  • Pre-commit hooks committed generated files
