Check Documentation Quality

Audit documentation freshness, completeness, and quality against the current codebase state. Read-only: never edit or write to any doc file.

Anti-Hallucination Detection

This skill exists to catch docs that lie. For every claim in a doc, verify it against the actual codebase rather than trusting the doc text:

  1. Cross-reference claims: component/service names, described relationships
  2. Verify counts: if a doc says "5 services", count the actual services
  3. Check file references: confirm every referenced path exists
  4. Validate diagrams: every Mermaid entity must exist in real code

Workflow

Phase 1: Scan docs/

  1. Glob all documentation files (docs/, docs/adr/, docs/rfc/, top-level README.md, CONTRIBUTING.md).
  2. Infer focus categories from the filenames actually present: don't assume a fixed set. A repo with docs/data-model.md gets a "data" category; one with docs/deployment.md and docs/docker-compose.yml docs gets "infrastructure"; group whatever's there under a name that matches its content. If the user names a focus that doesn't match anything found, say so and list the categories that do exist instead of silently no-op'ing.
  3. Detect tech stack, database presence, deployment configs, and project type from the codebase (package files, Dockerfiles, etc.) to know what documentation should exist.
