  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Docs Governance is an agent skill from clawdotnet/openclaw.net. Organizes repository documentation and keeps new docs in the correct location.

Its SKILL.md is about 440 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: Self-hosted Enterprise and Personal AI + agent runtime in .NET (NativeAOT-friendly). The licence is MIT.

Example prompts

  • “Use the docs-governance skill to organiz repository documentation and keeps new docs in the correct location”
  • “/docs-governance”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Documentation placement rules
  2. Naming and structure rules
  3. Change rules
  4. Default behavior

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 2344435. 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

Docs Governance loads about 441 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 24 tokens; SKILL.md has 213 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~24
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~441

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.

description
Organizes repository documentation and keeps new docs in the correct location.

Use this skill when creating, moving, or reorganizing Markdown documentation in this repository.

  1. Documentation placement rules

    • Put product, setup, architecture, operations, compatibility, roadmap, and engineering notes in docs/.
    • Keep repository-standard meta files at the repo root only when the platform or community expects them there: README.md, CHANGELOG.md, SECURITY.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md, and LICENSE.
    • Keep Copilot and agent customization files where the tooling expects them: AGENTS.md, .github/copilot-instructions.md, and .github/skills/**/SKILL.md.
    • Keep shipped OpenClaw runtime skills under src/OpenClaw.Gateway/skills/<skill>/SKILL.md; do not move those into docs/.
  2. Naming and structure rules

    • Prefer docs/<topic>.md with descriptive kebab-case names for new documentation.
    • If a topic grows, create a focused subfolder under docs/ rather than adding more root Markdown files.
    • Do not add general documentation to the repository root.
  3. Change rules

    • When moving or adding docs, update relative links in the same change.
    • Update README quick links when the document is user-facing or operationally important.
    • Do not move issue templates, pull request templates, licenses, or any SKILL.md files unless the task is specifically about those systems.
  4. Default behavior

    • If a new Markdown document is requested and no location is specified, place it in docs/.
    • If a document mixes repository policy and product guidance, keep the policy file in its standard root location and move the product guidance into docs/.
