descriptionWrite and maintain technical documentation. Trigger with "write docs for", "document this", "create a README", "write a runbook", "onboarding guide", or when the user needs help with any form of technical writing — API docs, architecture docs, or operational runbooks.

Technical Documentation

Write clear, maintainable technical documentation for different audiences and purposes.

Document Types

README

  • What this is and why it exists
  • Quick start (< 5 minutes to first success)
  • Configuration and usage
  • Contributing guide

API Documentation

  • Endpoint reference with request/response examples
  • Authentication and error codes
  • Rate limits and pagination
  • SDK examples

Runbook

  • When to use this runbook
  • Prerequisites and access needed
  • Step-by-step procedure
  • Rollback steps
  • Escalation path

Architecture Doc

  • Context and goals
  • High-level design with diagrams
  • Key decisions and trade-offs
  • Data flow and integration points

Onboarding Guide

  • Environment setup
  • Key systems and how they connect
  • Common tasks with walkthroughs
  • Who to ask for what

Principles

  1. Write for the reader — Who is reading this and what do they need?
  2. Start with the most useful information — Don't bury the lede
  3. Show, don't tell — Code examples, commands, screenshots
  4. Keep it current — Outdated docs are worse than no docs
  5. Link, don't duplicate — Reference other docs instead of copying
