Documentation updates

Apply the documentation lifecycle contract in the installed Project Documentation Management block. This skill supplies the bounded update procedure; environment instructions own language, permissions and shared-document locations. When AGENTS.md needs a deliberate edit, route one bounded change set through the dedicated agents-md-edit skill; the coordinator integrates and verifies it. If unavailable, report the missing capability.

1. Gather and filter

Review the available session for knowledge that would otherwise disappear:

  • Replay user requirements, corrections and vetoes. Check redirects, confusion, repeated requests, better-default expectations, surface-only fixes, unused available resources and inefficient paths. Separate durable intent from temporary scope, examples and unadopted suggestions.
  • Replay task-level detours: failed approach, cause, successful remedy and verification. Do not record repetitive tool failures that taught nothing.
  • Look inside incident fixes, environment/tool integration, configuration and release acceptance, design research, and repeated failures for reusable mechanisms hidden among product details. An existing project write-up does not establish project ownership of the knowledge.
  • Identify docs invalidated by changes, newly exposed contradictions, and cases where the right doc was missing, misleading or not found.
  • Ask whether the workaround would still be necessary with perfect docs. If yes, record an environment-improvement item alongside the documented workaround; do not implement unrelated improvements automatically.

Then apply the precision test: would this spare a new Agent a non-obvious mistake or rediscovery? Preserve relevant business rules, hidden constraints, verified workflows, applicability and evidence. Skip code/Git restatement, duplicates and session-only narrative. Search existing docs before deciding nothing needs updating. Pure Q&A is not a skip condition.

If no new durable knowledge remains, report that no update is needed. If documentation changes are explicitly forbidden, report the unpersisted findings without writing.
