Docs Sync

Overview

Identify doc coverage gaps and inaccuracies by comparing main branch features and configuration options against the current docs structure, then propose targeted improvements.

Authorization and scope

For an audit or proposal-only request, report findings without editing. When the user requests updates or has already approved a plan, complete those local edits and applicable checks without asking again. Ask only about unresolved scope, behavior, release timing, or additional authority. Keep generated translations untouched. Apply the repository's Documentation Release Timing policy before including unreleased behavior in docs/.

Workflow

1. Confirm scope and base branch

   • Identify the current branch and default branch (usually main).
   • Prefer analyzing the current branch to keep work aligned with in-flight changes.
   • Use a branch diff only for a branch-scoped request. A requested topic or released-doc correction remains in scope even when it is unrelated to the current branch diff.
   • Avoid switching branches if it would disrupt local changes. Prefer read-only inspection such as git show main:<path>. If a separate checkout is genuinely required, stop and obtain the explicit approval required by AGENTS.md before creating or switching a worktree.

2. Build a feature inventory from the selected scope

   • Bound the inventory to the requested topic or diff. Inventory the full surface only for an explicitly comprehensive audit.
   • For branch-scoped work, inspect feature additions, changes, and removals relative to the intended base.
   • Focus on user-facing behavior: public exports, configuration options, environment variables, CLI commands, default values, and documented runtime behaviors.
   • Capture evidence for each item (file path + symbol/setting).
   • Use targeted search to find option types and feature flags (for example: rg "Settings", rg "Config", rg "os.environ", rg "OPENAI_").
   • When the topic involves OpenAI platform features, invoke $openai-knowledge to pull current details from the OpenAI Developer Docs MCP server instead of guessing, while treating the SDK source code as the source of truth when discrepancies appear.

3. Doc-first pass: review existing pages

   • Walk each relevant page under docs/ (excluding docs/ja, docs/ko, and docs/zh).
   • Identify missing mentions of important, supported options (opt-in flags, env vars), customization points, or new features from src/agents/ and examples/.
   • Propose additions where users would reasonably expect to find them on that page.

4. Code-first pass: map features to docs

   • Review the current docs information architecture under docs/ and mkdocs.yml.
   • Determine the best page/section for each feature based on existing patterns and the API reference structure under docs/ref.
   • Identify features that lack any doc page or have a page but no corresponding content.
   • Note when a structural adjustment would improve discoverability.
   • When improving docs/ref/* pages, treat the corresponding docstrings/comments in src/ as the source of truth. Prefer updating those code comments so regenerated reference docs stay correct, instead of hand-editing the generated pages.

5. Detect gaps and inaccuracies

   • Missing: features/configs present in main but absent in docs.
