Generate Documentation

Create or update internal technical documentation.

1. Scope and Strategy

   • Identify the target for documentation (Specific file, directory, component, or decision).
   • Determine the appropriate artifact type:
     • README.md: For directories, components, or project root.
     • ADR: For architectural decisions (Architecture Decision Record).
     • Guide: For "How-to" or conceptual explanations.
   • Confirm the placement of the documentation (e.g., co-located with code or in a docs/ folder).

2. Analysis and Context

   • Read the relevant source code to ensure technical accuracy.
   • Identify key concepts, architectural patterns, and "gotchas".
   • Review existing related documentation to ensure consistency and avoid duplication.

3. Draft Documentation

   • Generate the documentation content using the Technical Writer persona.
   • Focus:
     • Explain the Why and Structure, not just the How.
     • Use active voice and clear, concise English.
     • Include accurate code snippets with language tags.
     • Use diagrams (Mermaid) if complex relationships exist.

4. Verification

   • Validation:
     • Are all commands copy-pasteable and working?
     • Do relative links point to valid files?
     • Is the tone consistent with internal developer documentation?
