What it does

Docs Chorus is an agent skill from Chorus-AIDLC/Chorus. Chorus documentation router — consult the live Chorus docs site to answer product-usage questions (UI workflow, agent/plugin setup, API/MCP, deployment, operations).

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Agent Workflows, covering Static sites and blogs and Hooks and plugins. It works with Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: The Agent Harness for AI-Human Collaboration, inspired by the AI-DLC (AI-Driven Development Lifecycle). The licence is AGPL-3.0.

  • Tasks that involve Hooks and plugins

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Fetch the index. Get https://doc.chorus-ai.dev/llms.txt — a machine-readable index that lists every documentation page with a one-line…

  3. Ground the answer and link the human page. Base your answer on the fetched Markdown, and link the human-facing page (the .md URL without…

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4754822. 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

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • doc.chorus-ai.dev

    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

Docs Chorus loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 44 tokens; SKILL.md has 583 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~44
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k

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.

Docs Skill

This skill is a thin router to the live Chorus documentation site (https://doc.chorus-ai.dev). Use it to answer questions about how to use, configure, deploy, or operate Chorus — grounding the answer in the current published docs rather than memory.

It is not a workflow skill: it does not drive the AI-DLC pipeline. For that, prefer the stage skills — idea-chorus, proposal-chorus, develop-chorus, review-chorus, or yolo-chorus (<BASE_URL>/skill/<name>/SKILL.md).


When to Use

Consider this skill whenever the user asks a product-usage question about Chorus, such as:

  • UI workflow — how the Idea → Proposal → Task → Verify pipeline works in the web app, what a control does, how statuses flow.
  • Agent setup — creating an API key, permissions and role presets, connecting an agent.
  • Plugin setup — installing/configuring the Claude Code / Codex / OpenClaw / Kiro / Pi plugin, or the standalone skill.
  • API / MCP — the REST API, the MCP tool surface, authentication, real-time events.
  • Deployment — self-hosting, the CDK stack, environment configuration.
  • Operations / troubleshooting — running Chorus, diagnosing connection or setup problems.

Prefer not to use it to drive the pipeline (claiming ideas, writing proposals, executing tasks) — that is what the stage skills above are for. This skill answers "how does the product work / how do I set it up"; the stage skills do the work.


Access Convention

The docs site is agent-friendly. Prefer this three-step convention every time. Rather than answering from memory, ground the answer in the docs, and avoid hardcoding a page list — the index is the source of truth and pages change over time.

  1. Fetch the index. Get https://doc.chorus-ai.dev/llms.txt — a machine-readable index that lists every documentation page with a one-line summary and its .md URL. Note the index is a single, unlocalized file that lives only at the root /llms.txt; there is no locale-prefixed variant, so https://doc.chorus-ai.dev/zh/llms.txt (and /ja/, /ko/) is not a real URL — don't request it.
  2. Fetch the relevant page(s) as raw Markdown. Pick the page(s) that match the question from the index, then fetch the raw Markdown by appending .md to the page URL (e.g. https://doc.chorus-ai.dev/guides/getting-started → https://doc.chorus-ai.dev/guides/getting-started.md).
  3. Ground the answer and link the human page. Base your answer on the fetched Markdown, and link the human-facing page (the .md URL without the .md suffix) so the user can open it in a browser.

Use whatever web-fetch capability your environment provides (your IDE's fetch tool, curl, etc.) — this skill states the convention, not a specific tool binding.

Note: <BASE_URL> (your own Chorus instance) and the docs site are different hosts. The docs site is the fixed public host https://doc.chorus-ai.dev; use it regardless of where your Chorus instance is deployed.

Locale

The /llms.txt index itself is not localized — there is just one, at the root. Localization applies to pages, not the index:

  • The index always lives at https://doc.chorus-ai.dev/llms.txt and lists the root (en) page URLs; there is no /zh/llms.txt.
  • en is the root (unprefixed): https://doc.chorus-ai.dev/...
  • zh, ja, ko are path-prefixed pages: take a page path from the index and prepend the locale — https://doc.chorus-ai.dev/zh/..., /ja/..., /ko/...
  • Appending .md works on the prefixed pages too (e.g. https://doc.chorus-ai.dev/zh/guides/getting-started.md).
  • Match the user's language when the docs exist in it; fall back to en otherwise.

Relationship to the Workflow Skills

This skill complements the AI-DLC workflow skills — it does not replace them:

The user wants to…Prefer

Drive an idea / write a proposal / execute or verify a taskidea-chorus, proposal-chorus, develop-chorus, review-chorus, yolo-chorus

Use the live host doc.chorus-ai.dev. docs.chorus-ai.dev (with an "s") is a dead link — prefer not to use it.
