Browse, search, load, and serve SpecWeave living documentation.

Config-Driven Directories

Read configured doc directories before any operation:

# Read configured doc directories (default: .specweave/docs)
DOC_DIRS=$(jq -r '(.documentation.directories // [".specweave/docs"])[]' .specweave/config.json 2>/dev/null)
[ -z "$DOC_DIRS" ] && DOC_DIRS=".specweave/docs"

All search/list commands below MUST iterate over $DOC_DIRS instead of hardcoding .specweave/docs.

Behavior

1. No arguments: Show documentation dashboard

Run these diagnostic commands:

# Read configured doc directories
DOC_DIRS=$(jq -r '(.documentation.directories // [".specweave/docs"])[]' .specweave/config.json 2>/dev/null)
[ -z "$DOC_DIRS" ] && DOC_DIRS=".specweave/docs"

# Count documents across all directories
DOC_COUNT=0
for dir in $DOC_DIRS; do
  if [ -d "$dir" ]; then
    C=$(find "$dir" -name "*.md" -type f 2>/dev/null | wc -l | tr -d ' ')
    DOC_COUNT=$((DOC_COUNT + C))
  fi
done
echo "DOC_COUNT:$DOC_COUNT"

# Detect umbrella mode and list child repo docs
UMB_REPOS=$(jq -r '.umbrella | select(.enabled==true) | .childRepos[]? | "\(.id):\(.path)"' .specweave/config.json 2>/dev/null)
if [ -n "$UMB_REPOS" ]; then
  echo "UMBRELLA:true"
  for entry in $UMB_REPOS; do
    REPO_ID="${entry%%:*}"
    REPO_PATH="${entry#*:}"
    REPO_DOC_COUNT=0
    for scope_dir in internal public; do

        REPO_DOC_COUNT=$((REPO_DOC_COUNT + C))

    done
    echo "CHILD_REPO:$REPO_ID:$REPO_DOC_COUNT docs"

Present as a clean dashboard.

Then ALWAYS include serve guidance (same as --serve behavior):

• If server is already running: "Docs server running at http://localhost:"
• If server is NOT running: Show the specweave docs preview instructions (see section 4 below)

This ensures every /sw:docs invocation gives the user a clear path to browse docs in their browser.

2. --list: List topics only

Same as dashboard but skip server/Docusaurus diagnostics. Just list folder names with descriptions.

3. Topic argument: Search and load docs

When user provides a topic (e.g., /sw:docs sync, /sw:docs troubleshooting):

1. Search across all configured directories and child repos:

   DOC_DIRS=$(jq -r '(.documentation.directories // [".specweave/docs"])[]' .specweave/config.json 2>/dev/null)
   [ -z "$DOC_DIRS" ] && DOC_DIRS=".specweave/docs"
   
   # Add child repo doc dirs in umbrella mode
   UMB_REPOS=$(jq -r '.umbrella | select(.enabled==true) | .childRepos[]? | .path' .specweave/config.json 2>/dev/null)
   for repo_path in $UMB_REPOS; do
     [ -d "$repo_path/.specweave/docs" ] && DOC_DIRS="$DOC_DIRS $repo_path/.specweave/docs"
   done
   
   for dir in $DOC_DIRS; do
     find "$dir" -type d -iname "*<topic>*" -maxdepth 4 2>/dev/null
     find "$dir" -type f -iname "*<topic>*.md" -maxdepth 5 2>/dev/null
   done
   

2. If found: Read the most relevant files (up to 3-5) and present a summary

3. If not found: Search file contents with Grep for the topic keyword, then present matches

4. --serve or serve intent: Browser preview guide

Detect serve intent from: --serve, --preview, or phrases like "serve", "preview", "browser", "open docs", "start server".

1. Check if server is already running:

   lsof -i :3000-3010 -sTCP:LISTEN 2>/dev/null | grep -i node
   

2. If running: "Docs server already running at http://localhost:"

3. If not running: Display:

   To view docs in browser with hot reload, run in your terminal:
   
     specweave docs preview
   
   First run auto-installs Docusaurus (~30-60 seconds).
   Subsequent runs start instantly.
   
   Options:
     specweave docs preview --port 3005            Use specific port
     specweave docs preview --no-browser           Don't auto-open browser
     specweave docs preview --project <id>         Target child repo (umbrella)
     specweave docs preview --project vskill       Example: preview vskill docs
   
   To stop: Ctrl+C in terminal, or: specweave docs kill
   

   In umbrella projects, also mention --project <id> usage to target child repo docs.

5. --status: Full status report

Run and display output of:

specweave docs status

6. Flags

7. ADR Mode (--adr or "ADR" in topic)

List all ADRs with their titles across all directories:

DOC_DIRS=$(jq -r '(.documentation.directories // [".specweave/docs"])[]' .specweave/config.json 2>/dev/null)
[ -z "$DOC_DIRS" ] && DOC_DIRS=".specweave/docs"
for dir in $DOC_DIRS; do
  for f in "$dir"/internal/architecture/adr/*.md; do
    [ -f "$f" ] && echo "$(basename "$f"): $(head -1 "$f" | sed 's/^# //')"
  done
done

If a specific ADR number is given, read and present it.

Output Footer

Always append to any output:

Tip: Run `specweave docs preview` in your terminal to view all docs in browser with hot reload.
