What its author says it does
Copied from the file, not written here
Companion overlay for multi-round collaborative drafting of large specs, proposals, decision docs, and similar documents. Use when the workflow needs structured context gathering, explicit outline approval, section-by-section iteration, and reader-testing rather than a direct documentation pass.

Documenter Coauthoring
Structured coauthoring workflow for large docs. Pair this with documenter
when the task needs sustained collaboration instead of a direct draft/update.
Core Workflow
- Gather context efficiently:
- ask for audience, desired outcome, constraints, deadline, and template
- invite a raw context dump; do not force the user to pre-organize it
- read linked local files and existing docs before asking avoidable questions
- Propose a structure before drafting the full doc when scope is still fuzzy or the document is large.
- Draft the sections with the most uncertainty first. Summary sections usually come last.
- Refine with surgical edits instead of reprinting the whole document on every iteration.
- Before finishing, do a reader test:
- check whether a reader without hidden context can follow the decision, procedure, or reference entry
- look for missing assumptions, undefined terms, and filler that adds little value
Decision Rules
- prefer this skill only for substantial docs; small edits should stay with
documenteralone - defer baseline doc-type, hygiene, style, and validation rules to
documenter; this skill adds collaboration workflow - when a template exists, align to it early instead of drafting against a guessed structure
- ask for approval on the outline when the document shape materially affects the content
- keep summary sections until late, after the decision and evidence are clear
- capture user preference from feedback and apply it to later sections
Exit Criteria
- the full document has a coherent structure
- section order matches reader needs
- important assumptions are stated explicitly
- repeated or low-value text has been removed
- a fresh reader can follow the document without hidden context
