tomevault-io Documentation Production
Overview
Provide a consistent, low-friction workflow for producing documentation across formats: focused docs, indexes, diagrams, tutorials, and learning paths. Keep outputs structured and aligned with the repo's docs conventions.
When to Use
- Generating or updating documentation for components, APIs, or features
- Building a project index or knowledge base
- Creating Mermaid diagrams for system behavior or architecture
- Writing tutorials, workshops, or learning paths
- Explaining concepts for onboarding or education
Avoid when:
- The request is primarily a code change (use implementation workflows)
- The doc type is a one-off note that doesn't need structure
Quick Reference
| Task | Load reference |
|---|---|
| Generate focused docs | skills/documentation-production/references/generate.md |
| Project index/knowledge base | skills/documentation-production/references/index.md |
| Mermaid diagrams | skills/documentation-production/references/diagrams.md |
| Teach concepts / learning paths | skills/documentation-production/references/teacher.md |
| Tutorials / workshops | skills/documentation-production/references/tutorials.md |
| Writing process & style | skills/documentation-production/references/writing-process.md |
Workflow
- Identify doc type and target audience.
- Load the relevant reference file(s) for structure and patterns.
- Gather source material from code or existing docs.
- Produce the artifact using the required format.
- Validate accuracy and consistency with repo conventions.
- Summarize changes and next steps.
Output
- The documentation artifact(s)
- Brief change summary and any follow-up gaps
Common Mistakes
- Skipping source review and guessing behavior
- Mixing tutorial/guide formats without clear intent
- Creating diagrams without labels or accessibility notes
- Updating docs without adjusting indexes or nav links
