What it does

Create Doc is an agent skill from avibebuilder/claude-prime. Use when the user wants to save knowledge as a file so others don't have to rediscover it — "turn this into a doc", "write this up", "document how X works", "we figured this out and want to capture it", "nobody should have to figure this out again". Covers any request to create or update durable written artifacts: onboarding guides, runbooks, ADRs, API docs, architecture notes, postmortems, changelogs, setup guides. The trigger: user wants knowledge captured in a file for future reference, not just a…

Its SKILL.md is about 810 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/doc-types.md`).

It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Runbooks and postmortems, Architecture decision records and Technical documentation. The repository describes itself as: You've heard Claude Code can do amazing things. Skills, hooks, agents, memory systems — but who has time to figure all that out? Claude Prime sets it up for you in one command. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • The user wants to save knowledge as a file so others dont have to rediscover it — turn this into a doc
  • Document how X works
  • We figured this out and want to capture it
  • Nobody should have to figure this out again

Example prompts

  • “t have to rediscover it —”
  • “write this up”
  • “document how X works”
  • “/create-doc”

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Identify the doc job
  2. Ground in evidence
  3. Choose destination
  4. Outline first when substantial
  5. Write the artifact
  6. Report and stop

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 80bcfa4. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Create Doc loads about 812 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.4k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 166 tokens; SKILL.md has 375 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~166
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~812
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.4k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Use when the user wants to save knowledge as a file so others don't have to rediscover it — "turn this into a doc", "write this up", "document how X works", "we figured this out and want to capture it", "nobody should have to figure this out again". Covers any request to create or update durable written artifacts: onboarding guides, runbooks, ADRs, API docs, architecture notes, postmortems, changelogs, setup guides. The trigger: user wants knowledge captured in a file for future reference, not just a conversation. Do NOT use when still making decisions (→ give-plan), just asking for explanation without a file (→ ask), or writing code (→ cook).

Process

Check conversation context and skip completed steps.

1. Identify the doc job

Figure out the document type, audience, purpose, whether to update an existing doc or create new, and what source material it draws from. If any of these would materially change the output and are unclear, ask.

If the request is still evaluating options, stop and discuss — drafting docs before a decision is made locks in the wrong answer.

If the doc type is a recognized structured format (runbook, ADR, postmortem, onboarding guide, API/architecture doc), read references/doc-types.md now — it has the required sections for each type.

2. Ground in evidence

Before writing factual claims, read relevant sources — existing docs, code, config, tickets, PRs, prior discussion. Don't present guesses as fact. Label uncertain details explicitly, or collect them in an "Open questions" section rather than hedging every sentence.

3. Choose destination

Prefer updating the canonical existing doc when one exists.

For new documents, MUST default to docs/ at the repo root (create it if missing). Only deviate when:

  • A more specific existing doc home clearly fits (ADR directory, changelog, README section, established project docs tree) — use it
  • The repo already follows a convention of keeping docs next to the code they explain — match that
  • The doc is event-like (postmortem, incident note) — use a timestamped filename

When you need a fresh timestamp, use date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S.

Show full SKILL.md (149 more words)Show less
4. Outline first when substantial

For large or structurally ambiguous docs, propose a title and section outline before drafting. For small or routine docs, write directly.

5. Write the artifact

Write the file at the path from Step 3 — don't paste in chat without creating the file. Adapt structure to the document type (ADRs, runbooks, postmortems, API docs, etc.) and include only sections that earn their keep.

A strong document is accurate, concise, audience-aware, scannable, explicit about why something matters, and clear about what is current behavior vs. decision vs. open question. Write for the intended reader, not for completeness theater. Prefer concrete repo-specific details over generic filler. When sources conflict, name the conflict instead of quietly picking one.

6. Report and stop

Report the path, whether you updated or created, what was captured, and any assumptions or gaps. Do not drift into implementation unless explicitly asked.

When should I use Create Doc?

Create Doc fits situations like: the user wants to save knowledge as a file so others dont have to rediscover it — turn this into a doc; document how X works; we figured this out and want to capture it; nobody should have to figure this out again.

How do I install Create Doc in Claude Code?

Run `npx skills add avibebuilder/claude-prime --skill create-doc -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (.claude/skills/create-doc in avibebuilder/claude-prime) into .claude/skills/create-doc in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.

How do I install Create Doc in Codex?

Can I use Create Doc in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add avibebuilder/claude-prime --skill create-doc -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/create-doc, .gemini/skills/create-doc, .github/skills/create-doc and .opencode/skills/create-doc in your project.

What does Create Doc need to run?

SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Create Doc is instructions for the agent only.

Does Create Doc access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Create Doc safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.

What licence does Create Doc use?

Create Doc is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.

How many tokens does Create Doc use?

About 812 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 3.2k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 585 tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
