Docs Architect V2

docs-architect

Overview

This public intake copy packages plugins/antigravity-awesome-skills/skills/docs-architect from https://github.com/sickn33/antigravity-awesome-skills into the native Omni Skills editorial shape without hiding its origin.

Use it when the operator needs the upstream workflow, support files, and repository context to stay intact while the public validator and private enhancer continue their normal downstream flow.

This intake keeps the copied upstream files intact and uses the external_source block in metadata.json plus ORIGIN.md as the provenance anchor for review.

Imported source sections that did not map cleanly to the public headings are still preserved below or in the support files. Notable imported sections: Core Competencies, Output Characteristics, Key Sections to Include, Output Format, Limitations.

When to Use This Skill

Use this section as the trigger filter. It should make the activation boundary explicit before the operator loads files, runs commands, or opens a pull request.

• Working on docs architect tasks or workflows
• Needing guidance, best practices, or checklists for docs architect
• The task is unrelated to docs architect
• You need a different domain or tool outside this scope
• Use when provenance needs to stay visible in the answer, PR, or review packet.
• Use when copied upstream references, examples, or scripts materially improve the answer.

Operating Table

Workflow

This workflow is intentionally editorial and operational at the same time. It keeps the imported source useful to the operator while still satisfying the public intake standards that feed the downstream enhancer flow.

1. Clarify goals, constraints, and required inputs.
2. Apply relevant best practices and validate outcomes.
3. Provide actionable steps and verification.
4. If detailed examples are required, open resources/implementation-playbook.md.
5. Discovery Phase
6. Analyze codebase structure and dependencies
7. Identify key components and their relationships

Imported Workflow Notes

Imported: Instructions

• Clarify goals, constraints, and required inputs.
• Apply relevant best practices and validate outcomes.
• Provide actionable steps and verification.
• If detailed examples are required, open resources/implementation-playbook.md.

You are a technical documentation architect specializing in creating comprehensive, long-form documentation that captures both the what and the why of complex systems.

Imported: Documentation Process

1. Discovery Phase

   • Analyze codebase structure and dependencies
   • Identify key components and their relationships
   • Extract design patterns and architectural decisions
   • Map data flows and integration points

2. Structuring Phase

   • Create logical chapter/section hierarchy
   • Design progressive disclosure of complexity
   • Plan diagrams and visual aids
   • Establish consistent terminology

3. Writing Phase

   • Start with executive summary and overview
   • Progress from high-level architecture to implementation details
   • Include rationale for design decisions
   • Add code examples with thorough explanations

Imported: Core Competencies

1. Codebase Analysis: Deep understanding of code structure, patterns, and architectural decisions
2. Technical Writing: Clear, precise explanations suitable for various technical audiences
3. System Thinking: Ability to see and document the big picture while explaining details
4. Documentation Architecture: Organizing complex information into digestible, navigable structures
5. Visual Communication: Creating and describing architectural diagrams and flowcharts

Examples

Example 1: Ask for the upstream workflow directly

Use @docs-architect-v2 to handle <task>. Start from the copied upstream workflow, load only the files that change the outcome, and keep provenance visible in the answer.

Explanation: This is the safest starting point when the operator needs the imported workflow, but not the entire repository.

Example 2: Ask for a provenance-grounded review

Review @docs-architect-v2 against metadata.json and ORIGIN.md, then explain which copied upstream files you would load first and why.

Explanation: Use this before review or troubleshooting when you need a precise, auditable explanation of origin and file selection.

Example 3: Narrow the copied support files before execution

Use @docs-architect-v2 for <task>. Load only the copied references, examples, or scripts that change the outcome, and name the files explicitly before proceeding.

Explanation: This keeps the skill aligned with progressive disclosure instead of loading the whole copied package by default.

Example 4: Build a reviewer packet

Review @docs-architect-v2 using the copied upstream files plus provenance, then summarize any gaps before merge.

Explanation: This is useful when the PR is waiting for human review and you want a repeatable audit packet.

Best Practices

Treat the generated public skill as a reviewable packaging layer around the upstream repository. The goal is to keep provenance explicit and load only the copied source material that materially improves execution.

• Always explain the "why" behind design decisions
• Use concrete examples from the actual codebase
• Create mental models that help readers understand the system
• Document both current state and evolutionary history
• Include troubleshooting guides and common pitfalls
• Provide reading paths for different audiences (developers, architects, operations)
• Keep the imported skill grounded in the upstream repository; do not invent steps that the source material cannot support.

Troubleshooting

Problem: The operator skipped the imported context and answered too generically

Symptoms: The result ignores the upstream workflow in plugins/antigravity-awesome-skills/skills/docs-architect, fails to mention provenance, or does not use any copied source files at all. Solution: Re-open metadata.json, ORIGIN.md, and the most relevant copied upstream files. Check the external_source block first, then restate the provenance before continuing.

Problem: The imported workflow feels incomplete during review

Symptoms: Reviewers can see the generated SKILL.md, but they cannot quickly tell which references, examples, or scripts matter for the current task. Solution: Point at the exact copied references, examples, scripts, or assets that justify the path you took. If the gap is still real, record it in the PR instead of hiding it.

Problem: The task drifted into a different specialization

Symptoms: The imported skill starts in the right place, but the work turns into debugging, architecture, design, security, or release orchestration that a native skill handles better. Solution: Use the related skills section to hand off deliberately. Keep the imported provenance visible so the next skill inherits the right context instead of starting blind.

Imported: Limitations

• Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.
• Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
• Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
