What its author says it does

Copied from the file, not written here

Generate and maintain a living software guidebook by scanning repository code, infrastructure, deployment files, and docs. Use when periodic documentation updates are needed, especially after IaC, deployment script, or major release changes.

Automated Software Guidebook Generator

Generate and keep a repository guidebook current from code and documentation.

When to Use

  • Weekly or sprint-end documentation reviews
  • Major releases
  • IaC, deployment, or build script changes
  • Repositories where architecture docs must stay current with minimal overhead

Required Sections

Validate that the guidebook includes:

  • Context
  • Functional Overview
  • Quality Attributes
  • Constraints
  • Principles
  • Software Architecture
  • Infrastructure Architecture
  • Deployment
  • Operation and Support
  • Development Environment

Scope

  • Scans: documentation directories, README files, architecture docs, IaC, build scripts, and other artifacts needed to maintain a living guidebook.
  • Exclusions: ADR completeness checks, code-only refactors with no documentation impact, and runtime-only behavior.
  • Fallback: if the guidebook structure is incomplete or ambiguous, fall back to the shared conventions heuristic order and emit warning with low confidence.
  • Routing: defer decision-record completeness to Decision Log and ADR Tracer and explicit architecture-rule enforcement to Automated Architecture Governance.

Workflow

  1. Validate structure.
    • Check docs/ and top-level markdown such as README.md.
    • Flag missing required sections.
  2. Extract infrastructure and deployment facts.
    • Inspect IaC, container, and deployment scripts.
    • Map runtime, environment, logging, monitoring, and diagnostics.
  3. Map principles and constraints.
    • Read configuration, lint rules, framework choices, and repository conventions.
    • Derive protocols, formats, layering, dependency, and style constraints.
  4. Report and draft.
    • List outdated or missing sections.
    • Produce markdown drafts for absent sections.

Rules

  • Use static analysis only.
  • Prefer repository truth over inferred intent.
  • Treat docs as living artifacts: update the smallest relevant section first.
  • Do not invent infrastructure details that are not supported by files.

Shared Conventions

  • Follow the repository-wide conventions in shared-skill-conventions.
  • Use the canonical output contract, severity levels, confidence rubric, routing rules, and false-positive downgrades defined there.
  • If this skill is not the closest match, defer to the routing guidance in the shared conventions file.

Output

Return a structured report with:

  • Missing guidebook sections
  • Outdated sections
  • Extracted facts for deployment and operations
  • Draft markdown for missing content
