What it does

Mcaf Documentation is an agent skill from managedcode/Storage. Create or refine durable engineering documentation: docs structure, navigation, source-of-truth placement, and writing quality. Use when a repo’s docs are missing, stale, duplicated, or hard to navigate, or when adding new durable engineering guidance.

Its SKILL.md is about 890 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/documentation.md`). Compatibility notes: Requires repository write access; updates docs and documentation structure.

It sits in Agent Workflows. The repository describes itself as: Storage library provides a universal interface for accessing and manipulating data in different cloud blob storage providers. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • A repos docs are missing
  • Hard to navigate
  • Adding new durable engineering guidance

Example prompts

  • “/mcaf-documentation”

Requirements

  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Requires repository write access; updates docs and documentation structure.

Workflow steps

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

  1. Read the nearest AGENTS.md and confirm scope and constraints.
  2. Run this skill's Workflow through the Ralph Loop until outcomes are acceptable.
  3. Return the Required Result Format with concrete artifacts and verification evidence.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 5d32121. 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.

  • Compatibility

    Requires repository write access; updates docs and documentation structure.

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Mcaf Documentation loads about 893 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.1k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 68 tokens; SKILL.md has 450 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~68
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~893
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~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.

MCAF: Documentation

Trigger On

  • docs are missing, stale, duplicated, or hard to navigate
  • a repo needs a cleaner source-of-truth structure
  • durable engineering guidance needs to be added without bloating pages

Value

  • produce a concrete project delta: code, docs, config, tests, CI, or review artifact
  • reduce ambiguity through explicit planning, verification, and final validation skills
  • leave reusable project context so future tasks are faster and safer

Do Not Use For

  • writing a specific feature spec or ADR when that skill already fits
  • dumping large template content into public pages

Inputs

  • current docs structure and entry pages
  • the code, policy, or workflow that the docs should reflect
  • duplicate or conflicting sources of truth

Quick Start

  1. Read the nearest AGENTS.md and confirm scope and constraints.
  2. Run this skill's Workflow through the Ralph Loop until outcomes are acceptable.
  3. Return the Required Result Format with concrete artifacts and verification evidence.

Workflow

  1. Decide the canonical location for each fact before writing.
  2. Prefer navigational docs that link to detail instead of copying detail.
  3. Keep bootstrap pages small; move workflow scaffolds into skills.
  4. Update stale docs in the same change as the code or policy they describe.

Deliver

  • cleaner docs structure
  • better source-of-truth placement
  • docs that reflect the code and workflow that actually exist

Validate

  • each durable fact has one clear home
  • entry pages route the reader correctly
  • pages do not bloat with template or reference dumps
  • docs match the real repo, not the intended future repo

Ralph Loop

Use the Ralph Loop for every task, including docs, architecture, testing, and tooling work.

  1. Plan first (mandatory):
    • analyze current state
    • define target outcome, constraints, and risks
    • write a detailed execution plan
    • list final validation skills to run at the end, with order and reason
  2. Execute one planned step and produce a concrete delta.
  3. Review the result and capture findings with actionable next fixes.
  4. Apply fixes in small batches and rerun the relevant checks or review steps.
  5. Update the plan after each iteration.
  6. Repeat until outcomes are acceptable or only explicit exceptions remain.
  7. If a dependency is missing, bootstrap it or return status: not_applicable with explicit reason and fallback path.
Required Result Format
  • status: complete | clean | improved | configured | not_applicable | blocked
  • plan: concise plan and current iteration step
  • actions_taken: concrete changes made
  • validation_skills: final skills run, or skipped with reasons
  • verification: commands, checks, or review evidence summary
  • remaining: top unresolved items or none

For setup-only requests with no execution, return status: configured and exact next commands.

Load References

  • read references/documentation.md for structure and documentation-quality guidance

Example Requests

  • "Clean up this docs mess."
  • "Move process clutter out of public pages."
  • "Make the repo docs navigable for an agent."
