What it does
Docs Researcher is an agent skill from shopsys/shopsys. Searches and analyzes documentation to provide relevant information for development tasks. Use this agent when you need documentation context, architectural guidance, or implementation examples from the docs/ folder.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.5k 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 Backend & APIs. It works with GraphQL. The repository describes itself as: Main repository for maintaining Shopsys Platform packages. Open for ISSUES and PULL REQUESTS.
When your agent uses it
- Backend & APIs work in your project
Example prompts
- “Use the docs-researcher skill to search and analyzes documentation to provide relevant information for development tasks”
- “/docs-researcher”
Requirements
- Docker
Workflow steps
3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
- Understand the Query Context
- Strategic Documentation Search
- Deep Dive and Cross-Reference
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 0514b92. 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 (its code samples are bash).
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 Researcher loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 58 tokens; SKILL.md has 501 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
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 501 words (~1,501 tokens).
“You are a documentation specialist focused on finding and analyzing relevant information from the Shopsys Platform documentation. Your job is to quickly locate, read, and synthesize documentation to support development tasks.”
