This skill is the diffing playbook the
@docs-auditor agent runs. You can also
invoke it directly with /docs-sync.
It produces a drift report. It does not write to docs/. Apply changes by
delegating to @author.
Inputs
$ARGUMENTS(optional) — restrict the audit to one of:paths|tracks|components|syntax|harness|routes|lifecycle|links|all. Default:all.
Procedure
Step 1 — Snapshot the code
Collect, in this order:
src/data/paths.tsexports.- All
path.jsonfiles undersrc/content/community/*/. - Frontmatter (
id,number,title,subtitle) of every markdown file undersrc/content/{tutorial,advanced,terminal}/. - The list of files under
src/components/diagrams/(excludingindex.ts). - The list of files under
.github/{instructions,prompts,skills,agents,hooks}/. - The route table from
src/App.tsx.
Step 2 — Snapshot the docs
Collect:
- The track tables in
docs/tracks/{foundation,agentic,terminal}.mdand the contribution-shape table indocs/community-contributions.md. - The component/diagram references in
docs/components.md. - The custom-syntax table in
docs/content-architecture.md(§5) and the route table (§2). - The harness inventory tables in
docs/harness.md. - The status table in
docs/lifecycle.md. - All relative links in every
docs/*.mdfile.
Step 3 — Diff
Compare each pair from Steps 1 and 2:
- Code item missing from docs →
add to docs. - Doc item missing from code →
remove from docs(only if file is gone) orflag for human review(if file might be renamed). - Mismatched fields (title, subtitle, status, applyTo, …) →
update doc. - Broken relative link →
fix link.
Step 4 — Group findings
Group by target file in docs/. Each group becomes one section in the
report.
Step 5 — Emit report
Use the template at templates/report.md (see below).
Report template
# Docs Sync — <ISO date>
Scope: `$ARGUMENTS`
Workspace: <git short SHA>
## Summary
- Files needing updates: N
- New items to document: N
- Items to remove: N
- Broken links: N
## docs/tracks/foundation.md
- ⚠️ Subtitle drift on Part 4: docs say "Different rules per folder", code says "Different rules for different folders".
- Proposed: update row.
## docs/components.md
- ❌ Diagram `NewFlowDiagram.tsx` exists in `src/components/diagrams/` but is not referenced.
- Proposed: add row to "Diagrams" section.
…
## Suggested next step
Run `@author` and paste this report.
Boundaries
- Do not write to
docs/. Output only. - Do not change content lifecycle statuses or example tracks.
- Do not run
npm run build— that is the@reviewer's job. You may run it read-only if a link looks ambiguous. - Treat
.github/CONTENT_LIFECYCLE.mdas the source of truth when it conflicts withdocs/lifecycle.md.
