Absolute Docs — Diátaxis Documentation Workflow

Writes, rewrites, and audits developer documentation using the Diátaxis framework, with an outline approval gate and code-verified accuracy.

Docs & OfficeIntermediate★ 208⑂ 29AI score 9/10Last updated: Jul 6, 2026

What it does

  • Routes any request into WRITE, IMPROVE, or AUDIT mode based on your phrasing.
  • Forces every page into exactly one Diátaxis quadrant (tutorial, how-to, reference, explanation) so pages stop serving two masters.
  • Detects your docs stack (Fumadocs, Docusaurus, Starlight, MkDocs, VitePress, Mintlify, or plain Markdown) and matches its frontmatter, components, and nav registration.
  • Hard outline gate: proposes file paths plus a heading outline and stops until you approve before writing prose.
  • Accuracy protocol: snippets, flag names, defaults, versions, and links are read from the source, never recalled; undocumented-because-nonexistent features are flagged instead of invented.
  • Includes playbooks for README, CONTRIBUTING, ARCHITECTURE, ADRs, CHANGELOG, and runbooks, plus a self-review rubric and red-flag checklist.

Who it's for

  • Open-source maintainers, technical writers, and DevRel engineers.
  • Teams with a stale README or a docs site that has drifted into structural rot.
  • Anyone who wants consistent voice and no "just simply" condescension in their docs.

Example uses

  1. write a tutorial for our CLI → recon of the repo, audience and scope pinned down, outline approved, then a first-try-success getting-started page.
  2. improve this README → classifies its intended quadrant, lists stale install commands and wrong option names, rewrites while keeping the project's voice.
  3. audit our docs → inventory of every page, quadrant classification, gap map for the missing quadrants, and a keep / rewrite / split / merge / move / delete action table.

Try it now, no install

Paste this into Claude to use the skill without installing anything.

Read the instructions in this file and follow them to help me:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/maddhruv/absolute/HEAD/skills/absolute-docs/SKILL.md

What I want: (describe your task here)

If Claude can't open the link, open it yourself and paste the contents instead.

↓ If it works for you, download the ZIP below and install it. Then it runs on its own — no pasting each time.

Install in the Claude app (no terminal)
  1. Download the ZIP with the button below.
  2. In Claude, open Settings → Capabilities and turn on 'Code execution and file creation'. (one time)
  3. Go to Customize → Skills → + → 'Upload a skill' and upload the ZIP.
↓ Download ZIP
Install in Claude Code

Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code

Install the skill I found on Claude Skill Mart.
Copy the skills/absolute-docs folder from the GitHub repo maddhruv/absolute into my ~/.claude/skills/absolute-docs/.
When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.

Install with a command instead

git clone https://github.com/maddhruv/absolute.git && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r absolute/skills/absolute-docs ~/.claude/skills/

⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.

  1. Open a terminal.
  2. Clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/maddhruv/absolute.git
  3. Create the skills directory: mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
  4. Copy the whole skill folder (the references/ playbooks matter): cp -r absolute/skills/absolute-docs ~/.claude/skills/
  5. Confirm ~/.claude/skills/absolute-docs/ contains SKILL.md and a references/ folder.
  6. Restart Claude Code, open your project, and trigger it with phrases like write a README, absolute docs, or audit our docs.
  7. Review the proposed outline and approve it explicitly — the skill will not write the document until you do.
