Filter Docs

Filter Docs

AI-assisted documentation filtering to keep only files useful for developers.

Quick Start

Generate review file for a manifest:

.claude/skills/filter-docs/scripts/filter-docs.sh {manifest-name}

Apply deletions (after creating ._delete.txt):

.claude/skills/filter-docs/scripts/filter-docs.sh {manifest-name}

Workflow

Step 1: Generate Review

Run the filter script to create output/{manifest}/._review.json containing:

• File paths and names
• File sizes and line counts
• First 10 lines as preview

Step 2: AI Evaluation

Read the review JSON and evaluate each file against these criteria:

KEEP - Files that help developers USE the library:

• API reference documentation
• Usage guides and tutorials
• Configuration and setup docs
• Code examples and patterns
• Integration guides
• Troubleshooting guides

DELETE - Files NOT useful for using the library:

• Internal development docs
• Contribution guidelines (CONTRIBUTING.md)
• Release notes and changelogs
• Meeting notes, RFCs, proposals
• Marketing and landing pages
• Duplicate or stub files
• Auto-generated index files with no content
• License files (already excluded by default)

Step 3: Create Delete List

Write paths of files to delete to output/{manifest}/._delete.txt:

• One relative path per line (relative to output/{manifest}/)
• Lines starting with # are ignored as comments

Example:

# Internal docs
internal/architecture.md
internal/roadmap.md
# Marketing
landing-page.md

Step 4: Apply Deletions

Run the filter script again. It will:

1. Delete all files listed in ._delete.txt
2. Remove empty directories
3. Delete the ._delete.txt file
