What it does
Docs Writer is an agent skill from Devolutions/devolutions-gateway. Write clear, concise technical documentation that helps readers complete a task or understand an interface. Use whenever creating or substantially rewriting READMEs, guides, tutorials, reference docs, rustdoc, explanatory comments, or release notes.
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.
It sits in Development, covering Technical documentation and Changelog and release notes. The repository describes itself as: A blazing fast relay server adaptable to different protocols and desired levels of traffic inspection. The licence is Apache-2.0.
When your agent uses it
- Substantially rewriting READMEs
- Explanatory comments
Example prompts
- “/docs-writer”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 81a3141. 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 Writer loads about 439 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 65 tokens; SKILL.md has 192 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
SKILL.md

Documentation writer
For Markdown, invoke markdown-writer; otherwise invoke prose-writer.
Apply the selected writer's rules throughout.
Identify the intended reader, their goal, and the prerequisites they need.
Before restructuring existing documentation, inventory its unique facts so none are lost or restated.
Present the outcome or shortest successful path before internal mechanics and edge cases.
Use only the headings needed to answer distinct reader questions.
Explain one path completely before introducing alternatives, and link to existing material instead of repeating it.
Keep examples minimal, realistic, and responsible for unique information.
Place warnings and constraints beside the step they affect.
Preserve established terminology and verify technical claims against the implementation.
Write the requested documentation directly. Prefer no net word-count growth when restructuring existing documentation without adding requested information. New structure should replace or consolidate prose; allow small justified growth when it materially improves navigation without duplication. Before finishing, remove repetition and confirm that a reader can find the next action without reconstructing it from implementation details. Don't add documentation comments for code that can be easily understandable. Don't add implementation details in the public API documentation - keep such information private (e.g. inside the function directly).
