    repo docs polisher

    Example session with this skill installed

    Audit my current README against this file tree and package.json. The README says to run 'npm start' but I don't see it in my scripts.

    • Read your context and instructions
    • Compiled the repo docs polisher
    • Generated the document

    I have audited your README.md against the provided package.json and file tree. There are discrepancies between your documented commands and the actual project scripts.

    Fact Check & Assumptions

    • Facts: Your package.json only contains build, lint, and dev scripts.

    Assumptions (TO CONFIRM): The dev script (tsx watch src/index.ts) is likely what you intended for the "start" instructions.

    • Questions: Does this project require a local Redis instance, or is it intended to use a cloud provider?

    Proposed Fix: README.md (Installation Section)

    
    ## Installation
    
    ```bash
    
    ```bash
    npm install
    
    
    ## Usage
    
    To start the development server with hot-reloading:
    
    ```bash
    npm run dev
    

    To create a production bundle

    npm run build
    
    
    **Next steps**
    1. Update the "Usage" section of your README to replace `npm start` with `npm run dev`.
    2. Add a `test` script to your `package.json` if you plan to implement unit tests.
    3. Confirm if the Redis dependency requires specific environment variables.

    About this skill

    The problem

    Great code dies in obscurity because of broken READMEs, missing installation steps, and outdated usage examples. Developers waste time trial-and-erroring commands that no longer exist in the package configuration.

    What it does

    • Generates README.md files based strictly on your package.json, Makefile, and source code.
    • Creates API references with signatures, parameters, and error types extracted from real exports.
    • Audits existing documentation to find broken commands and undocumented flags.
    • Drafts CONTRIBUTING.md files that reflect the actual project structure and development workflow.

    Why this beats prompting it yourself

    Generic LLMs often hallucinate installation commands or configuration flags that don't exist in your project. This skill enforces a strict "no invention" policy, cross-referencing every doc claim against your actual file tree and scripts.

    Use cases

    • Writing a professional README for a new open-source project.
    • Auditing a legacy repo to fix broken setup instructions.
    • Generating internal API documentation for shared utility libraries.
    • Creating honest configuration tables from environment variable usage.

    Known limitations

    Cannot invent license text without user input. Requires access to project configuration files to verify commands.
