Documentation Gap Finder

What this skill does

This skill directs the agent to audit a codebase or documentation directory and produce a comprehensive list of documentation gaps. It checks for missing docstrings, undocumented exports, README files that don't match the current code, stale setup instructions, and any public API surface that lacks documentation. The output is a prioritized gap list that tells you exactly what to write and in what order.

Use this when preparing for a new developer joining the team, before an open-source launch, when onboarding is taking too long, or as part of a quarterly documentation review.
