Docs drift silently because a change often belongs in 6–10 files across 4 languages plus two HTML pages. This skill encodes **which docs exist, which change-types touch which docs, and how to propagate consistently** (including the wiki i18n + cache-bump dance). Authoritative inventory with exact section anchors lives in [`references/doc-map.md`](references/doc-map.md) — read it when deciding where a specific change lands. The repo rule [`.claude/rules/docs-markdown.md`](../../rules/docs-markdown.md) ("update all affected docs together") and [`.claude/rules/wiki-i18n.md`](../../rules/wiki-i18n.md) are binding. ## When to update (including without being asked) Update docs **in the same change-set (PR/commit) as the code**, before claiming done — do not wait for the user to ask — whenever the change is observable from outside the module: - **New/changed env var** → every env-var table + `.env.example`. - **New event type** (e.g. an `events.event_type` value) → every event-type list/table. - **New/changed hook behavior or session/agent state transition** → hook docs + every state-machine diagram. - **New/changed API route or response shape** → API docs + route tables + OpenAPI. - **DB schema change** (table/column/index) → database docs + ERD. - **New WebSocket message type** → client/server WS docs. - **New MCP tool** → MCP docs. - **New CLI command / script / renamed file referenced in docs** → command lists + onboarding guides. - **New user-facing feature / page / background service** → feature tables + landing + wiki + architecture. **Do NOT** auto-update for: pure internal refactors with no observable/interface/config change, test-only changes, comment/typo fixes, or work the user explicitly scoped as "no docs". When unsure whether a change is observable, check the mapping below; if it touches any row, update. ## Change → docs mapping | Change type | Docs to update | |---|---| | **Env var** | `README.md`, `README-VN.md`, `README-CN.md`, `README-KO.md` (env tables), `ARCHITECTURE.md` (inline), `server/README.md`, `wiki/index.html` (env table) + wiki i18n, `.env.example` | | **Event type** | `README.md`+VN+CN (hook-event table), `ARCHITECTURE.md` (Event types line), `docs/PLUGINS.md`, `wiki/index.html` + i18n, `docs/DATABASE.md` (if it enumerates types) | | **Hook behavior / state transition** | `docs/HOOKS.md`, state-machine **mermaid** diagrams in `README.md`+VN+CN + `server/README.md` + `docs/DATABASE.md` + `wiki/index.html`, `ARCHITECTURE.md` (hooks.js row) | | **API route / response** | `docs/API.md`, `server/README.md` (routes), `ARCHITECTURE.md` (routes row), `server/openapi*.js` (code) | | **DB schema** | `docs/DATABASE.md`, `ARCHITECTURE.md` (ERD/schema) | | **WebSocket message** | `client/README.md` (Event Types), `server/README.md`, `wiki/index.html` | | **MCP tool** | `mcp/README.md`, `docs/MCP.md` | | **Feature / page / background service** | `README.md`+VN+CN (feature table + data-flow list), `ARCHITECTURE.md` (module table), `index.html` (landing blurb), `wiki/index.html` + i18n, `server/README.md` or `client/README.md` | | **CLI command / script** | `README.md` commands, `CLAUDE.md` / `AGENTS.md`, `INSTALL.md` / `SETUP.md` | | **New language** | `docs/I18N.md`, `client/src/i18n/locales//*`, `client/src/i18n/index.ts`, `README-.md`, wiki i18n | ## Procedure 1. **Classify** the change against the table above. A change can hit multiple rows (a new feature with a new env var hits both). 2. **Write the canonical English version first** — usually `README.md` and/or `ARCHITECTURE.md`. Get the wording right there; it anchors everything else. 3. **Propagate to translations** `README-VN.md`, `README-CN.md`, and `README-KO.md`: mirror the SAME edits at the corresponding sections. Keep identifiers, env-var names, event names, and code in English; translate only prose. Render "Waiting" as **Đang chờ** (vi) / **等待中** (zh) / **대기 중** (ko). Match each file's existing terminology — read the neighboring lines first. 4. **Landing page** `index.html`: one concise marketing sentence in the most relevant existing feature card — light touch, no new sections. 5. **Wiki** `wiki/index.html`: add the detailed prose/table/diagram, then follow `.claude/rules/wiki-i18n.md` — add `zh` + `vi` entries for every new English string to `wiki/i18n-content.js`, then **bump the cache**: increment `CACHE_NAME` in `wiki/sw.js` and the `i18n-content.js?v=` query string in `wiki/index.html`. Skipping the cache bump means returning visitors never see the update. 6. **Area READMEs / docs/**: update `server/README.md`, `client/README.md`, and the relevant `docs/*.md` per the mapping. 7. **Diagrams**: when a state transition changes, edit every mermaid `stateDiagram-v2` block that models it (they are duplicated across README/VN/CN/KO, server/README, docs/DATABASE, wiki). Keep transition labels consistent. ## Verify (do not skip) - **Coverage**: run `scripts/doc-coverage.sh [...]` (e.g. the new env var / event type / identifier) and confirm every doc the mapping flags shows a HIT. The matrix is advisory — not every term belongs in every file — but a flagged doc reading `0` is a miss to fix. - **Tables**: markdown tables stay pipe-balanced (header column count == every row). - **Mermaid**: each edited block still parses (valid `source --> target: label`). - **i18n**: every new wiki English string resolves to both `zh` and `vi`; cache versions bumped. - **Format/tests**: run `npm run format` (or `prettier --check` on touched files); for any code touched, run the verification from `CLAUDE.md` (`npm run test:server` / `test:client` / `mcp:typecheck`). - State exactly which docs were updated and which were intentionally skipped (with reason), mirroring the repo's verification policy. ## Tips - The fastest way to find where something already lives: `grep -n "" ` (e.g. grep an adjacent env var to find the env table). `references/doc-map.md` lists the stable anchors per file. - Parallelize translations + HTML across subagents when the change is large, but write the canonical English edit yourself first so the translations have a faithful source. - One language/area per subagent keeps edits reviewable and tables un-corrupted.
