Agent Skills

DocSlime ships agent skills so Codex, Claude Code, ChatGPT, and other skill-aware tools can
drive the documentation lifecycle with the same product rules the CLI scaffolds.

The CLI creates files. The skills do the judgment-heavy work: check installation, scaffold a
repo, interview the user, fill documents, create ADRs, and review the result for KISS
problems.

Install

npx skills add DecisionNerd/DocSlime

For a specific coding agent:

npx skills add DecisionNerd/DocSlime --agent codex
npx skills add DecisionNerd/DocSlime --agent claude-code

Skills

Skill What it does
docslime-install Verifies the docslime binary and installs it if missing.
docslime-init Confirms the current repo and scaffolds the standard docs/ tree.
docslime-fill Interviews the user and fills one scaffolded document.
docslime-adr Creates and fills the next-numbered Architecture Decision Record.
docslime-kiss Reviews filled docs for bloat, stale contradictions, weak traceability, and generic AI prose.

How it works at runtime

Once installed, invoke the skills from inside the agent:

/docslime-install
/docslime-init
/docslime-fill PRODUCT.md
/docslime-adr embed-templates-in-binary
/docslime-kiss

Each skill follows the docs tree instead of maintaining a separate source of truth. Product
context lives in docs/PRODUCT.md, design context lives in docs/DESIGN.md, and decisions
live in docs/3-ENGINEERING/ADRs/.

  1. Run docslime init.
  2. Fill PRODUCT.md with docslime-fill.
  3. Work through experiences, requirements, design, architecture, and testing.
  4. Use docslime-adr whenever a durable technical or product decision is made.
  5. Run docslime-kiss before merging documentation-heavy changes.
