Authoring Technical Docs — Core Documentation Engineering Action

Overview

This action defines the process, quality standards, and style rules for producing professional technical documentation. It follows a multi-pass workflow: research the inputs, draft the document, self-review for quality, and format for delivery.

Always load this action first. Domain actions (authoring-api-docs, authoring-architecture-docs, authoring-release-docs, authoring-user-docs) build on this foundation.

Workflow

Execute these phases in order. Do not skip phases.

Request → RESEARCH → DRAFT → REVIEW → REVISE (max 2 cycles) → FORMAT → Deliver
