## What it does

The skill manages technical documentation discovery across libraries and frameworks. It first looks for `llms.txt` feeds, prioritizing patterns on context7.com for GitHub repositories and domain paths. When specific features are requested, it passes topic query parameters directly to the source URL.

For multiple documentation links, the workflow launches parallel Explorer agents to inspect separate sections simultaneously. If an `llms.txt` file does not exist, the skill switches to finding the GitHub repository and packaging its structure with `repomix` into a single XML file.

The repository fallback requires Git and a global installation of `repomix` via npm. Without that utility present in the local environment, codebase packing will fail and force the agent into general web research.

## Requirements
- Works with: GitHub

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add mrgoonie/claudekit-skills --skill docs-seeker -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/docs-seeker/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/docs-seeker/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add mrgoonie/claudekit-skills --skill docs-seeker -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/docs-seeker/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add mrgoonie/claudekit-skills --skill docs-seeker -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/docs-seeker/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install mrgoonie/claudekit-skills docs-seeker
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/docs-seeker/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add mrgoonie/claudekit-skills --skill docs-seeker -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/mrgoonie/claudekit-skills --path .claude/skills/docs-seeker
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/docs-seeker/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add mrgoonie/claudekit-skills --skill docs-seeker -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/mrgoonie/claudekit-skills/tree/HEAD/.claude/skills/docs-seeker/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- fetch library documentation using the llms.txt standard
- pack GitHub repositories into structured docs with Repomix
- read multiple manual pages simultaneously using Explorer subagents
- retrieve feature-specific documentation using topic queries

## Example prompts
- Find the Next.js caching documentation using llms.txt
- Look up the latest API reference for better-auth
- Analyze the imagick repository documentation using repomix
