Docstyle

Overview

Use this skill when writing, editing, or reviewing developer documentation for APIs, SDKs, CLI tools, integrations, quickstarts, platform guides, or technical product docs.

Write documentation that is concise, helpful, and comprehensive: fast for first success, precise for production, and easy to scan when debugging.

Core Model

Use a Stripe-like documentation model:

• Lead with what the developer is trying to do.
• Give one recommended path before alternatives.
• Make examples runnable and realistic.
• Keep guides task-oriented and references exhaustive.
• Explain production risks exactly where developers can make mistakes.
• Link concepts, guides, API references, SDKs, testing, and troubleshooting so readers can move between them without rereading.
