Documentation

Use this skill when you need project orientation before editing or answering architecture questions.

helper

• Import /mod/_core/documentation/documentation.js
• read("path/to/file.md") reads a nested markdown doc relative to docs/
• url("path/to/file.md") builds the resolved /mod/... URL for a doc file

workflow

• Start with the built-in documentation index below unless you already know the exact doc path
• Use one focused read("path/to/file.md") call instead of loading many large docs blindly
• Treat /README.md as the public product source of truth for the project pitch, quick starts, release links, community links, and DeepWiki discovery
• After orientation, walk the DOX chain from /AGENTS.md to the owning AGENTS.md file and then inspect code when needed
• For visual or modal work, confirm app/L0/_all/mod/_core/visual/AGENTS.md before changing dialog shells, buttons, cards, popovers, or other shared UI primitives
• For dashboard panel creation, panel manifests, or panel-navigation helpers, start with app/modules-and-extensions.md
• Keep the repo's frontend-first rule in mind while reading: backend docs explain constraints and existing contracts, not default permission to edit server/
• If the change appears to require backend work and the user did not explicitly ask for backend edits, ask for permission and explain the security, integrity, or stability reason before changing backend files
• When you change a stable contract or workflow, update the relevant DOX AGENTS.md files, including affected Child DOX Index entries, and the matching docs in /mod/_core/documentation/docs/
• When you add, remove, rename, or substantially repurpose a doc file, update this skill's in-file index in the same session
