Documentation Structure

This skill defines how documentation is organized and maintained in this repository.

Core Principles

Principle	Description
Separation of Concerns	README (landing), docs/ (reference), CONTRIBUTING (dev workflow)
Single Source of Truth	Define once, link everywhere. Never duplicate content.
Hub-and-Spoke	`docs/README.md` is the central navigation hub
Vendor Isolation	Each AI platform gets its own directory in docs/

Document Responsibilities

User vs Developer Content Separation

CRITICAL RULE: User documentation must ONLY contain fully automated installation methods. All manual setup belongs in developer documentation.

Content Type	User Docs	Developer Docs
Marketplace install	✓	✓
One-command GitHub install	✓	✓
git clone	✗	✓
--plugin-dir	✗	✓
extensions link	✗	✓
JSON config editing	✗	✓
Local path setup	✗	✓
mcp_settings.json	✗	✓

User Documentation (README.md, docs/*/overview.md)

Installation must be copy-paste simple
Single command or UI-only steps
Link to dev docs for manual alternatives

Developer Documentation (CONTRIBUTING.md, docs//-development.md)

All manual setup workflows
Local testing procedures
Configuration file editing
Environment setup

README.md (Landing Page)

Purpose: First impression. Get users started quickly.

Must include:

One-line description
Quick Start (4 steps: Choose → Install → Authenticate → Try)
Capability tables (what users can do)
Links to docs/ for details

Must NOT include:

Full API reference (→ docs/mcp/)
Development workflows (→ CONTRIBUTING.md)
Detailed architecture (→ docs/)

docs/ (Reference Documentation)

Purpose: Complete reference for users and developers.

Structure:

├── getting-started/       # Entry points

└── mcp/                   # Protocol reference

    └── tutorials.md

CONTRIBUTING.md (Development Workflow)

Purpose: How to modify THIS repository.

Must include:

Clone and local dev setup
How to test changes locally (--plugin-dir, etc.)
Validation checklists
PR process

Must NOT include:

Full plugin/power architecture (→ docs/)
User-facing tutorials (→ docs/)

Vendor Documentation Standards

Each vendor directory in docs/ follows this pattern:

Required Files

File	Purpose
`overview.md`	What is this integration, why use it, installation
`*-development.md`	How to build new plugins/powers/extensions
Individual component docs	One file per plugin/power

Standard Sections in overview.md

## What are [Plugins/Powers/Extensions]?
## Why Use [Plugins/Powers] vs Direct MCP?
## Available [Plugins/Powers]
## Installation
## Authentication
## Related

Vendor-Specific Metadata

Vendor	Config Format	Location
Claude Code	`plugin.json`	`.claude-plugin/plugin.json`
Kiro	POWER.md frontmatter	`POWER.md`
Gemini CLI	JSON extension	`gemini-extension.json`

Cross-Reference Patterns

Link Format

Within docs/: Use relative paths [text](../mcp/tools-reference.md)
From README to docs/: Use docs/ prefix [text](docs/claude-code/overview.md)
External links: Full URLs [text](https://developers.miro.com)

Required "Related" Section

Every doc file should end with a Related section:

## Related

- [Overview](overview.md) - Introduction to this integration
- [Tools Reference](../mcp/tools-reference.md) - MCP tool documentation

Reciprocal Links

If doc A links to doc B, doc B should link back to doc A in its Related section.

Validation Guidelines

Before committing documentation changes:

Content Checks

No duplicated content (link instead)
Correct document owns the content (README vs docs/ vs CONTRIBUTING)
All sections present per vendor standards

Link Checks

All internal links resolve
Related sections have reciprocal links
External links use HTTPS

Format Checks

Code blocks have language specified
Tables have consistent formatting
Collapsibles have matching tags
