What it does

Documentation Platform Selection is an agent skill from hashgraph-online/awesome-codex-plugins. Evaluate documentation platforms and authoring tools by requirements, workflow fit, migration risk, content model, search, integrations, portability, support burden, and cost. Use when choosing docs-as-code, CMS, wiki, DITA, API reference, static-site, help-center, or custom docs tooling, planning a migration, or deciding whether tooling will fix documentation problems.

Its SKILL.md is about 800 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 7 other files, including reference files (for example `guidelines.md`, `references/core/knowledge.md` and `workflows/evaluate-doc-platform.md`). Compatibility notes: Codex, Claude Code, and other Agent Skills-compatible clients.

It sits in Sales & Support, covering Static sites and blogs and Help center and FAQ content. The repository describes itself as: A curated list of awesome OpenAI Codex / ChatGPT plugins, skills, and resources. The 1 Codex Marketplace. See live plugins at: https://hol.org/plugins/best-codex-plugins. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Choosing docs-as-code
  • Custom docs tooling
  • Planning a migration
  • Deciding whether tooling will fix documentation problems

Example prompts

  • “/documentation-platform-selection”

Requirements

  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Codex, Claude Code, and other Agent Skills-compatible clients.

Workflow steps

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

  1. Load guidelines.md to choose the smallest useful reference set.
  2. State current pain, target reader experience, author workflow, and constraints.
  3. Use workflows/evaluate-doc-platform.md to compare options.
  4. Use workflows/plan-doc-migration-pilot.md when migration or pilot planning is needed.
  5. Separate tool problems from process, ownership, and information architecture problems.
  6. Return requirements, comparison, recommendation, migration risk, pilot plan, and open questions.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 16b4156. 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

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • link.springer.com

    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.

  • Compatibility

    Codex, Claude Code, and other Agent Skills-compatible clients.

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Documentation Platform Selection loads about 798 tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.6k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 101 tokens; SKILL.md has 297 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~101
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~798
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~2.6k

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.

Documentation Platform Selection

Use this skill to choose, compare, pilot, or migrate documentation platforms and authoring tools. It keeps the decision anchored in reader experience, author workflow, maintenance reality, and migration risk.

This skill is derived from paraphrased guidance in Christopher Gales and the Splunk Documentation Team's The Product Is Docs: Writing Technical Documentation in a Product Development Group, especially Chapter 17, "Tools and Content Delivery," plus related maintenance and audience guidance from Chapters 3 and 10. Do not copy book prose into user outputs. Source: https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-1-4842-7217-6

Quick Start

  1. Load guidelines.md to choose the smallest useful reference set.
  2. State current pain, target reader experience, author workflow, and constraints.
  3. Use workflows/evaluate-doc-platform.md to compare options.
  4. Use workflows/plan-doc-migration-pilot.md when migration or pilot planning is needed.
  5. Separate tool problems from process, ownership, and information architecture problems.
  6. Return requirements, comparison, recommendation, migration risk, pilot plan, and open questions.

Default Output

When evaluating a documentation platform, return:

  1. Decision context - current pain, audiences, content types, team workflow, and constraints.
  2. Requirements - reader, authoring, content model, integration, maintenance, migration, portability, support, and cost.
  3. Option comparison - weighted tradeoffs, fit, risks, and implementation burden.
  4. Process issues - ownership, IA, review, metadata, or maintenance problems that tooling will not fix alone.
  5. Recommendation - keep, improve process, pilot, migrate, or reject.
  6. Pilot or migration plan - scope, success criteria, rollback, owners, and timeline.

Core Posture

  • Start from reader and author outcomes, not vendor features.
  • Diagnose process problems before blaming tooling.
  • Treat migration as content, URL, metadata, search, and workflow change.
  • Favor portability unless lock-in is an intentional tradeoff.
  • Choose the platform the team can actually maintain.
