What it does
Update Docs is an agent skill from marin-community/marin. Update durable docs when explicitly requested or when current work changes behavior, exposes stale instructions, establishes an operational pattern, or yields reusable research guidance.
Its SKILL.md is about 390 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: Open-source framework for the research and development of foundation models. The licence is Apache-2.0.
Example prompts
- “/update-docs”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit be1f5f1. 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
Update Docs loads about 394 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 50 tokens; SKILL.md has 190 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.

- update-docs
- description
- Update durable docs when explicitly requested or when current work changes behavior, exposes stale instructions, establishes an operational pattern, or yields reusable research guidance.
Skill: Update Docs
Use this when a task changes behavior, reveals stale instructions, creates a new operational pattern, or produces guidance that should survive outside the issue thread.
What to Update
- User-facing docs when behavior or configuration changes.
- Operational docs when commands, service setup, dashboards, alerts, or recovery procedures change.
- Skill docs when an agent workflow becomes reusable.
- Experiment reports or indexes when the work produces durable research findings.
Prefer editing the nearest existing doc over adding a new one. Add a new doc only when the topic lacks a natural home or would make an existing page unfocused.
Content Rules
- Describe current behavior, not aspiration.
- Include exact commands and paths for operational procedures.
- Remove or correct stale instructions rather than adding caveats around them.
- Keep broad docs concise; put detailed run notes in the existing issue, W&B report, or durable session channel.
Done Criteria
- Docs and code agree for the changed behavior.
- The next agent or human can find the authoritative procedure without reading the whole issue thread.
- Any generated guidance is generalized enough to reuse and specific enough to act on.

How do I install Update Docs in Claude Code?
Run `npx skills add marin-community/marin --skill update-docs -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (.agents/skills/update-docs in marin-community/marin) into .claude/skills/update-docs in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
How do I install Update Docs in Codex?
Run `npx skills add marin-community/marin --skill update-docs -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (.agents/skills/update-docs in marin-community/marin) into .agents/skills/update-docs in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Can I use Update Docs in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add marin-community/marin --skill update-docs -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/update-docs, .gemini/skills/update-docs, .github/skills/update-docs and .opencode/skills/update-docs in your project.
What does Update Docs need to run?
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Update Docs is instructions for the agent only.
Does Update Docs access the network?
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Is Update Docs safe to install?
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
What licence does Update Docs use?
Update Docs is published under the Apache-2.0 licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
How many tokens does Update Docs use?
About 394 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 1.6k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
What are the alternatives to Update Docs?
