|

|

<!-- SCOPE: Root documentation hub with general standards and navigation ONLY. Contains documentation structure overview, SCOPE tags rules, maintenance conventions, sequential numbering, placeholder conventions. NO content duplication - all details in subdirectory READMEs. -->
|
||||
<!-- DO NOT add here: Project-specific details → project/README.md, Reference documentation → reference/README.md, Task management rules → tasks/README.md, Implementation code → Task descriptions -->
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
This documentation system provides comprehensive technical and operational documentation following industry standards (ISO/IEC/IEEE 29148, arc42, C4 Model, Michael Nygard's ADR format).
|
||||
|
||||
**Documentation is organized into three main areas:**
|
||||
- **Project Documentation** - Requirements, architecture, technical specifications
|
||||
- **Reference Documentation** - Architecture decisions (ADRs), reusable patterns (Guides), API references (Manuals)
|
||||
- **Task Management** - Linear workflow, task tracking rules, kanban board
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## General Documentation Standards
|
||||
|
||||
All documentation in this system follows these conventions:
|
||||
|
||||
### SCOPE Tags
|
||||
|
||||
Every document contains HTML comment tags defining its boundaries:
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<!-- SCOPE: What this document CONTAINS -->
|
||||
<!-- DO NOT add here: What belongs elsewhere → where to find it -->
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Purpose**: Prevent content duplication, maintain single source of truth, redirect to correct location.
|
||||
|
||||
**Example**:
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<!-- SCOPE: Project requirements ONLY. Functional requirements ONLY. -->
|
||||
<!-- DO NOT add here: Architecture details → architecture.md, Implementation → Task descriptions -->
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Maintenance Sections
|
||||
|
||||
All documents contain a **Maintenance** section with:
|
||||
|
||||
| Field | Description | Example |
|
||||
|-------|-------------|---------|
|
||||
| **Update Triggers** | When to update the document | "When changing acceptance criteria (Non-Functional Requirements are forbidden here)" |
|
||||
| **Verification** | How to verify document is current | "Check all FR-XXX IDs referenced in tests exist" |
|
||||
| **Last Updated** | Date of last modification | "2025-11-15" |
|
||||
|
||||
### Sequential Numbering
|
||||
|
||||
**Rule**: Phases/Sections/Steps use sequential integers: 1, 2, 3, 4 (NOT 1, 1.5, 2).
|
||||
|
||||
**Exceptions**:
|
||||
|
||||
| Case | Format | Example | When Valid |
|
||||
|------|--------|---------|------------|
|
||||
| **Conditional Branching** | Letter suffixes | Phase 4a (CREATE), Phase 4b (REPLAN), Phase 5 | Mutually exclusive paths (EITHER A OR B) |
|
||||
| **Loop Internals** | Steps inside Phase | Phase 3: Loop → Step 1 → Step 2 → Repeat | Cyclic workflows with repeated sub-steps |
|
||||
|
||||
**Important**: When inserting new items, renumber all subsequent items.
|
||||
|
||||
### Placeholder Conventions
|
||||
|
||||
Documents use placeholders for registry updates:
|
||||
|
||||
| Placeholder | Location | Purpose | Updated By |
|
||||
|-------------|----------|---------|------------|
|
||||
| `{{ADR_LIST}}` | reference/README.md | ADR registry | ln-322-adr-creator |
|
||||
| `{{GUIDE_LIST}}` | reference/README.md | Guide registry | ln-321-guide-creator |
|
||||
| `{{MANUAL_LIST}}` | reference/README.md | Manual registry | ln-323-manual-creator |
|
||||
|
||||
**Usage**: Skills automatically add new entries BEFORE the placeholder using Edit tool.
|
||||
|
||||
### Writing Guidelines (Progressive Disclosure Pattern)
|
||||
|
||||
All documentation follows token-efficient formatting rules:
|
||||
|
||||
| Content Type | Format | Rationale |
|
||||
|--------------|--------|-----------|
|
||||
| **Skill descriptions** | < 200 chars in SKILL.md frontmatter | Clarity, focused scope |
|
||||
| **Workflows** | Reference table with link to SKILL.md | Avoid duplication (DRY) |
|
||||
| **Examples** | Table rows (verdict + rationale) | 60-80% more compact than paragraphs |
|
||||
| **Lists** | Bullet points with inline details | Progressive disclosure |
|
||||
| **References** | One-line format (source - topics - insight) | Scannable, no verbose paragraphs |
|
||||
| **Comparisons** | Table with columns | Visual clarity, easy scanning |
|
||||
| **Step-by-step processes** | Inline arrow notation (Step 1 → Step 2 → Step 3) | Compact flow representation |
|
||||
|
||||
**Verbose content is justified for:**
|
||||
- ❌ Anti-patterns (educational value - prevents mistakes)
|
||||
- 🎓 Complex architectural explanations (orchestrator patterns, state machines)
|
||||
- ⚠️ Critical rules with rationale (INVEST criteria, task sizing)
|
||||
|
||||
**Compression targets:**
|
||||
- Main documentation files: < 500 lines (optimal: 300-400 lines)
|
||||
- README hubs: < 200 lines
|
||||
- Individual guides: < 800 lines (optimal: 400-600 lines)
|
||||
|
||||
### Documentation Standards
|
||||
|
||||
**Full documentation requirements:** See [documentation_standards.md](documentation_standards.md)
|
||||
|
||||
Key highlights:
|
||||
- **Claude Code Integration** - CLAUDE.md ≤100 lines, @-sourcing, sessionStart hooks
|
||||
- **AI-Friendly Writing** - Second person, active voice, max 25 words/sentence
|
||||
- **Code Examples** - All examples runnable, realistic names, show expected output
|
||||
- **DIATAXIS Framework** - Organize docs into Tutorial/How-to/Reference/Explanation
|
||||
- **Security** - Never commit secrets, use .env.example templates
|
||||
- **Conventional Commits** - Structured commit messages for auto-changelog
|
||||
|
||||
**Total:** 60 requirements in 12 categories. See documentation_standards.md for complete details.

## Contributing to Documentation
|
||||
|
||||
When updating documentation:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Check SCOPE tags** at top of document to ensure changes belong there
|
||||
2. **Update Maintenance > Last Updated** date in the modified document
|
||||
3. **Update registry** if adding new documents:
|
||||
- ADRs, Guides, Manuals → automatically updated by skills
|
||||
- Project docs → update [project/README.md](project/README.md) manually
|
||||
4. **Follow sequential numbering** rules (no decimals unless conditional branching)
|
||||
5. **Add placeholders** if creating new document types
|
||||
6. **Verify links** after structural changes
