sc-document

Documentation Generation Skill

Focused documentation for code, APIs, and features.

Quick Start

# Inline documentation
/sc:document src/auth/login.js --type inline

# API reference
/sc:document src/api --type api --style detailed

# User guide
/sc:document payment-module --type guide

Behavioral Flow

1. Analyze - Examine component structure and functionality
2. Identify - Determine documentation requirements and audience
3. Generate - Create appropriate documentation content
4. Format - Apply consistent structure and patterns
5. Integrate - Ensure compatibility with existing docs

Flags

Flag	Type	Default	Description
--type	string	inline	inline, external, api, guide
--style	string	detailed	brief, detailed

Evidence Requirements

• Parameter and return descriptions
• Function-level comments

External (--type external)

• Standalone documentation files
• Component overviews
• Integration guides

API (--type api)

• Endpoint documentation
• Request/response schemas
• Usage examples

Guide (--type guide)

• User-focused tutorials
• Implementation patterns
• Common use cases

Style Options

Brief (--style brief)

• Concise descriptions
• Essential information only
• Quick reference format

Detailed (--style detailed)

• Comprehensive explanations
• Extended examples
• Edge case coverage

Examples

Inline Code Docs

/sc:document src/auth/login.js --type inline
# JSDoc with @param, @returns, @throws

API Reference

/sc:document src/api --type api --style detailed
# Full endpoint docs with examples

User Guide

/sc:document payment-module --type guide --style brief
# Quick-start tutorial with common patterns

Component Docs

/sc:document components/ --type external
# README.md for component library

MCP Integration

PAL MCP (Quality & Research)

Tool	When to Use	Purpose
mcp__pal__codereview	API docs	Review documentation accuracy
mcp__pal__apilookup	External APIs	Get current API documentation
mcp__pal__chat	Writing assistance	Get help with complex explanations
mcp__pal__consensus	Style decisions	Multi-model validation of doc approach

PAL Usage Patterns

# Verify documentation accuracy
mcp__pal__codereview(
    review_type="quick",
    step="Reviewing API documentation for accuracy",
    findings="Parameter descriptions, return types, examples",
    relevant_files=["/docs/api/auth.md"]
)

# Get current API docs for external integration
mcp__pal__apilookup(
    prompt="Get current Stripe API documentation for payment intents"
)

# Writing assistance for complex topics
mcp__pal__chat(
    prompt="Help me explain the OAuth2 authorization code flow clearly for developers",
    model="gpt-5.2"
)

Rube MCP (Publishing & Collaboration)

Tool	When to Use	Purpose
mcp__rube__RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS	Doc platforms	Find Notion, Confluence, GitBook
mcp__rube__RUBE_MULTI_EXECUTE_TOOL	Publishing	Push docs to platforms
mcp__rube__RUBE_REMOTE_WORKBENCH	Bulk docs	Generate docs for large codebases

Rube Usage Patterns

# Publish documentation
mcp__rube__RUBE_MULTI_EXECUTE_TOOL(tools=[
    {"tool_slug": "NOTION_CREATE_PAGE", "arguments": {
        "title": "API Reference: Authentication",
        "content": "## Endpoints\n### POST /auth/login\n..."
    }},
    {"tool_slug": "CONFLUENCE_CREATE_PAGE", "arguments": {
        "space": "DEV",
        "title": "Auth API Documentation",
        "content": "..."
    }}
])

# Notify team of new docs
mcp__rube__RUBE_MULTI_EXECUTE_TOOL(tools=[
    {"tool_slug": "SLACK_SEND_MESSAGE", "arguments": {
        "channel": "#documentation",
        "text": "New API docs published: Authentication endpoints"
    }}
])

# Bulk generate docs
mcp__rube__RUBE_REMOTE_WORKBENCH(
    thought="Generate JSDoc for all exported functions",
    code_to_execute='''
import os
# Process all JS files and generate documentation
# Use invoke_llm for each function
'''
)

Flags (Extended)

Flag	Type	Default	Description
--pal-review	bool	false	Use PAL to review doc accuracy
--publish	string	-	Publish via Rube (notion, confluence, gitbook)
--notify	string	-	Notify via Rube (slack, teams, email)

Tool Coordination

• Read - Component analysis
• Grep - Reference extraction
• Write - Documentation creation
• Glob - Multi-file documentation
