gsd:docs-update

SkillDocs & knowledge

Generate or update project documentation verified against the codebase

Instructions available. Your AI can read the instructions. Execution depends on the setup they require.

Account requirements not reviewed. Check the skill instructions before use; ahel provides instructions and does not run this skill.

Add ahel to your AI once: Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or Codex. Then ask it to use this.

Then ask your AI: use the gsd:docs-update skill

Flag handling rule:

The optional flags documented below are available behaviors, not implied active behaviors
A flag is active only when its literal token appears in $ARGUMENTS
If a documented flag is absent from $ARGUMENTS, treat it as inactive
--force: skip preservation prompts, regenerate all docs regardless of existing content or GSD markers
--verify-only: check existing docs for accuracy against codebase, no generation (full verification requires Phase 4 verifier)
If --force and --verify-only both appear in $ARGUMENTS, --force takes precedence

<execution_context> @${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/workflows/docs-update.md </execution_context>

Available optional flags (documentation only — not automatically active):

--force — Regenerate all docs. Overwrites hand-written and GSD docs alike. No preservation prompts.
--verify-only — Check existing docs for accuracy against the codebase. No files are written. Reports VERIFY marker count. Full codebase fact-checking requires the gsd-doc-verifier agent (Phase 4).

Active flags must be derived from $ARGUMENTS:

--force is active only if the literal --force token is present in $ARGUMENTS
--verify-only is active only if the literal --verify-only token is present in $ARGUMENTS
If neither token appears, run the standard full-phase generation flow
Do not infer that a flag is active just because it is documented in this prompt
