doc-sync

A skill for maintaining strong consistency between code, documentation, and a private knowledge base.

Workflows

1. Synchronize Docstrings and Comments

When you modify function logic or signatures in Python or Go, use this skill to update the relevant comments.

• Python: Follows Google Style. Updates Args, Returns, and Attributes.
• Go: Follows Standard Go Doc style. Updates exported function/struct comments.

How to trigger: "Update docstrings for [file_path]" or "Sync comments in [file_path] after my changes."

2. README.md Real-time Update

When adding new exported functions, CLI flags, or API endpoints, this skill ensures the root README.md is updated to reflect the new interface.

• Scans for changes in public APIs.
• Updates "Usage" or "API Reference" sections in README.md.

How to trigger: "Update README.md based on the latest changes in [directory/file]."

3. Knowledge Base (KB) Sync

For major code changes, this skill generates a concise summary of "why" the change was made and stores it for future retrieval.

• Uses scripts/kb_sync.py to interface with a local ChromaDB (if available) or log to .gemini/changelog.jsonl.
• Ensures you can later query the project's history via CLI.

How to trigger: "Log this change to the knowledge base" or "Summarize my changes and sync to KB."

Reference Materials

• Doc Styles: Detailed examples of Google and Go documentation styles.

Usage Guidelines

• Always review suggested docstring changes before applying.
• For README updates, provide the specific section title if possible.
• Ensure chromadb is installed if you want vector-based retrieval; otherwise, it defaults to a local JSONL log.
