Release Documentation Command
You are a documentation generator for the compound-engineering plugin. Your job is to ensure the documentation site at plugins/compound-engineering/docs/ is always up-to-date with the actual plugin components.
Overview
The documentation site is a static HTML/CSS/JS site based on the Evil Martians LaunchKit template. It needs to be regenerated whenever:
- Agents are added, removed, or modified
- Commands are added, removed, or modified
- Skills are added, removed, or modified
- MCP servers are added, removed, or modified
Step 1: Inventory Current Components
First, count and list all current components:
# Count agents
ls plugins/compound-engineering/agents/*.md | wc -l
# Count commands
ls plugins/compound-engineering/commands/*.md | wc -l
# Count skills
ls -d plugins/compound-engineering/skills/*/ 2>/dev/null | wc -l
# Count MCP servers
ls -d plugins/compound-engineering/mcp-servers/*/ 2>/dev/null | wc -l
Read all component files to get their metadata:
Agents
For each agent file in plugins/compound-engineering/agents/*.md:
- Extract the frontmatter (name, description)
- Note the category (Review, Research, Workflow, Design, Docs)
- Get key responsibilities from the content
Commands
For each command file in plugins/compound-engineering/commands/*.md:
- Extract the frontmatter (name, description, argument-hint)
- Categorize as Workflow or Utility command
Skills
For each skill directory in plugins/compound-engineering/skills/*/:
- Read the SKILL.md file for frontmatter (name, description)
- Note any scripts or supporting files
MCP Servers
For each MCP server in plugins/compound-engineering/mcp-servers/*/:
- Read the configuration and README
- List the tools provided
Step 2: Update Documentation Pages
2a. Update docs/index.html
Update the stats section with accurate counts:
<div class="stats-grid">
<div class="stat-card">
<span class="stat-number">[AGENT_COUNT]</span>
<span class="stat-label">Specialized Agents</span>
</div>
<!-- Update all stat cards -->
</div>
Ensure the component summary sections list key components accurately.
2b. Update docs/pages/agents.html
Regenerate the complete agents reference page:
- Group agents by category (Review, Research, Workflow, Design, Docs)
- Include for each agent:
- Name and description
- Key responsibilities (bullet list)
- Usage example:
claude agent [agent-name] "your message" - Use cases
2c. Update docs/pages/commands.html
Regenerate the complete commands reference page:
- Group commands by type (Workflow, Utility)
- Include for each command:
- Name and description
- Arguments (if any)
- Process/workflow steps
- Example usage
2d. Update docs/pages/skills.html
Regenerate the complete skills reference page:
- Group skills by category (Development Tools, Content & Workflow, Image Generation)
- Include for each skill:
- Name and description
- Usage:
claude skill [skill-name] - Features and capabilities
2e. Update docs/pages/mcp-servers.html
Regenerate the MCP servers reference page:
- For each server:
- Name and purpose
- Tools provided
- Configuration details
- Supported frameworks/services
Step 3: Update Metadata Files
Ensure counts are consistent across:
-
plugins/compound-engineering/.claude-plugin/plugin.json- Update
descriptionwith correct counts - Update
componentsobject with counts - Update
agents,commandsarrays with current items
- Update
-
.claude-plugin/marketplace.json- Update plugin
descriptionwith correct counts
- Update plugin
-
plugins/compound-engineering/README.md- Update intro paragraph with counts
- Update component lists
Step 4: Validate
Run validation checks:
# Validate JSON files
cat .claude-plugin/marketplace.json | jq .
cat plugins/compound-engineering/.claude-plugin/plugin.json | jq .
# Verify counts match
echo "Agents in files: $(ls plugins/compound-engineering/agents/*.md | wc -l)"
grep -o "[0-9]* specialized agents" plugins/compound-engineering/docs/index.html
echo "Commands in files: $(ls plugins/compound-engineering/commands/*.md | wc -l)"
grep -o "[0-9]* slash commands" plugins/compound-engineering/docs/index.html
Step 5: Report Changes
Provide a summary of what was updated:
## Documentation Release Summary
### Component Counts
- Agents: X (previously Y)
- Commands: X (previously Y)
- Skills: X (previously Y)
- MCP Servers: X (previously Y)
### Files Updated
- docs/index.html - Updated stats and component summaries
- docs/pages/agents.html - Regenerated with X agents
- docs/pages/commands.html - Regenerated with X commands
- docs/pages/skills.html - Regenerated with X skills
- docs/pages/mcp-servers.html - Regenerated with X servers
- plugin.json - Updated counts and component lists
- marketplace.json - Updated description
- README.md - Updated component lists
### New Components Added
- [List any new agents/commands/skills]
### Components Removed
- [List any removed agents/commands/skills]
Dry Run Mode
If --dry-run is specified:
- Perform all inventory and validation steps
- Report what WOULD be updated
- Do NOT write any files
- Show diff previews of proposed changes
Error Handling
- If component files have invalid frontmatter, report the error and skip
- If JSON validation fails, report and abort
- Always maintain a valid state - don't partially update
Post-Release
After successful release:
- Suggest updating CHANGELOG.md with documentation changes
- Remind to commit with message:
docs: Update documentation site to match plugin components - Remind to push changes
