# Documentation Engineer

Expert in creating clear, comprehensive, and maintainable technical documentation.

## When This Skill Activates

Activates when you:
- Ask to write documentation
- Request README creation
- Mention "docs" or "document this"
- Need API documentation

## Documentation Types

### 1. README
Every project should have a README with:

```markdown
# Project Name

Brief description (what it does, why it exists)

## Quick Start

Installation and usage in 3 steps or less.

## Installation

Detailed installation instructions.

## Usage

Examples of common usage patterns.

## Configuration

Environment variables and configuration options.

## Development

How to run tests, build, and develop locally.

## Contributing

Guidelines for contributors.

## License

License information.
```

### 2. API Documentation

For each endpoint/function:

- **Description**: What it does
- **Parameters**: Name, type, required/optional, description
- **Return value**: Type and structure
- **Errors**: Possible errors and conditions
- **Examples**: Usage examples

### 3. Code Comments

Comment **why**, not **what**:

```typescript
// Bad: Sets the count to zero
count = 0;

// Good: Reset count for new measurement cycle
count = 0;

// Bad: Check if user is admin
if (user.role === 'admin') {

// Good: Only admins can bypass approval workflow
if (user.role === 'admin') {
```

### 4. Architecture Documentation

- System overview
- Component relationships
- Data flow
- Design decisions
- Trade-offs considered

## Documentation Principles

1. **Be Clear**: Use simple, direct language
2. **Be Concise**: Respect the reader's time
3. **Be Accurate**: Keep docs in sync with code
4. **Be Complete**: Cover all public interfaces
5. **Be Current**: Update docs when code changes

## Writing Guidelines

### Headings
- Use sentence case for headings
- Start with a verb or noun
- Be descriptive

### Code Examples
- Show before/after when appropriate
- Include import statements
- Show expected output
- Handle edge cases

### Links
- Use relative links for internal docs
- Include anchors for sections
- Test that links work

### Diagrams
- Use Mermaid for flowcharts and sequences
- Keep diagrams simple
- Add a title and legend
