Documentation Discovery via Scripts

Quick Summary

Goal: Search and fetch technical documentation using executable scripts with llms.txt standard (context7.com).

Workflow:

1. Detect — Run scripts/​detect-topic.js to classify query type (topic-specific vs general)
2. Fetch — Run scripts/​fetch-docs.js to retrieve documentation with automatic fallback
3. Analyze — Run scripts/​analyze-llms-txt.js to categorize URLs and recommend agent distribution

Key Rules:

• Always execute scripts in order: detect -> fetch -> analyze
• Scripts handle URL construction and fallback chains automatically; no manual URL building
• Zero-token overhead: scripts run without context loading

Be skeptical. Apply critical thinking, sequential thinking. Every claim needs traced proof, confidence percentages (Idea should be more than 80%).

Documentation Discovery via Scripts

Overview

Script-first documentation discovery using llms.txt standard.

Execute scripts to handle entire workflow - no manual URL construction needed.

Primary Workflow

ALWAYS execute scripts in this order:

# 1. DETECT query type (topic-specific vs general)
node scripts/​detect-topic.js "<user query>"

# 2. FETCH documentation using script output
node scripts/​fetch-docs.js "<user query>"

# 3. ANALYZE results (if multiple URLs returned)
cat llms.txt | node scripts/​analyze-llms-txt.js -

Scripts handle URL construction, fallback chains, and error handling automatically.

Scripts

detect-topic.js - Classify query type

• Identifies topic-specific vs general queries
• Extracts library name + topic keyword
• Returns JSON: {topic, library, isTopicSpecific}
• Zero-token execution

fetch-docs.js - Retrieve documentation

• Constructs context7.com URLs automatically
• Handles fallback: topic → general → error
• Outputs llms.txt content or error message
• Zero-token execution

analyze-llms-txt.js - Process llms.txt

• Categorizes URLs (critical/​important/​supplementary)
• Recommends agent distribution (1 agent, 3 agents, 7 agents, phased)
• Returns JSON with strategy
• Zero-token execution

Workflow References

Topic-Specific Search - Fastest path (10-15s)

General Library Search - Comprehensive coverage (30-60s)

Repository Analysis - Fallback strategy

References

context7-patterns.md - URL patterns, known repositories

errors.md - Error handling, fallback strategies

advanced.md - Edge cases, versioning, multi-language

Execution Principles

1. Scripts first - Execute scripts instead of manual URL construction
2. Zero-token overhead - Scripts run without context loading
3. Automatic fallback - Scripts handle topic → general → error chains
4. Progressive disclosure - Load workflows/​references only when needed
5. Agent distribution - Scripts recommend parallel agent strategy

Quick Start

Topic query: "How do I use date picker in shadcn?"

node scripts/​detect-topic.js "<query>"  # → {topic, library, isTopicSpecific}
node scripts/​fetch-docs.js "<query>"    # → 2-3 URLs
# Read URLs with WebFetch

General query: "Documentation for Next.js"

node scripts/​detect-topic.js "<query>"         # → {isTopicSpecific: false}
node scripts/​fetch-docs.js "<query>"           # → 8+ URLs
cat llms.txt | node scripts/​analyze-llms-txt.js -  # → {totalUrls, distribution}
# Deploy agents per recommendation

Environment

Scripts load .env: process.env > .claude/​skills/​docs-seeker/​.env > .claude/​skills/​.env > .claude/​.env

See .env.example for configuration options.

[IMPORTANT] Use TaskCreate to break ALL work into small tasks BEFORE starting — including tasks for each file read. This prevents context loss from long files. For simple tasks, AI MUST ATTENTION ask user whether to skip.

<!-- SYNC:ai-mistake-prevention -->

AI Mistake Prevention — Failure modes to avoid on every task:

Check downstream references before deleting. Deleting components causes documentation and code staleness cascades. Map all referencing files before removal. Verify AI-generated content against actual code. AI hallucinates APIs, class names, and method signatures. Always grep to confirm existence before documenting or referencing. Trace full dependency chain after edits. Changing a definition misses downstream variables and consumers derived from it. Always trace the full chain. Trace ALL code paths when verifying correctness. Confirming code exists is not confirming it executes. Always trace early exits, error branches, and conditional skips — not just happy path. When debugging, ask "whose responsibility?" before fixing. Trace whether bug is in caller (wrong data) or callee (wrong handling). Fix at responsible layer — never patch symptom site. Assume existing values are intentional — ask WHY before changing. Before changing any constant, limit, flag, or pattern: read comments, check git blame, examine surrounding code. Verify ALL affected outputs, not just the first. Changes touching multiple stacks require verifying EVERY output. One green check is not all green checks. Holistic-first debugging — resist nearest-attention trap. When investigating any failure, list EVERY precondition first (config, env vars, DB names, endpoints, DI registrations, data preconditions), then verify each against evidence before forming any code-layer hypothesis. Surgical changes — apply the diff test. Bug fix: every changed line must trace directly to the bug. Don't restyle or improve adjacent code. Enhancement task: implement improvements AND announce them explicitly. Surface ambiguity before coding — don't pick silently. If request has multiple interpretations, present each with effort estimate and ask. Never assume all-records, file-based, or more complex path.

Critical Thinking Mindset — Apply critical thinking, sequential thinking. Every claim needs traced proof, confidence >80% to act. Anti-hallucination: Never present guess as fact — cite sources for every claim, admit uncertainty freely, self-check output for errors, cross-reference independently, stay skeptical of own confidence — certainty without evidence root of all hallucination.

Closing Reminders

IMPORTANT MUST ATTENTION break work into small todo tasks using TaskCreate BEFORE starting IMPORTANT MUST ATTENTION search codebase for 3+ similar patterns before creating new code IMPORTANT MUST ATTENTION cite file:line evidence for every claim (confidence >80% to act) IMPORTANT MUST ATTENTION add a final review todo task to verify work quality

[TASK-PLANNING] Before acting, analyze task scope and systematically break it into small todo tasks and sub-tasks using TaskCreate.
