Markdown Documentation Management

Overview

Manage project documentation for Claude Code workflows including context files, READMEs, and agent instructions. This skill provides structured automation for maintaining accurate, up-to-date documentation that aligns with actual codebase structure and functionality. Use this skill when initializing new projects, updating existing documentation, or ensuring context files accurately reflect current code.

The skill emphasizes verification and validation over blind generation—analyze the actual codebase structure, file contents, and patterns before creating or updating documentation. All generated content should be terse, imperative, and expert-to-expert rather than verbose or tutorial-style.

Prerequisites

Before using any documentation workflow, verify basic project structure:

git rev-parse --git-dir

Ensure the output confirms you are in a git repository. If not initialized, documentation workflows may still proceed but git-specific features will be skipped.

For update workflows, verify target files exist:
