Documentation Researcher Skill

Mode 1: Initialize (init )

When argument is init :

• Run the initialization script:

node ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/init.js .

2. Check if CLAUDE.md exists (at project root):

• If exists: Read it and append the knowledge base section if not already present
• If not exists: Create it with the knowledge base section

Append/create this section in CLAUDE.md:

## Knowledge Base

This project uses `.claude/skills/project-knowledge-base/` for documentation.

**Before coding unfamiliar patterns:**
1. Load the `project-knowledge-base` skill to see available references
2. If topic not covered, use `/docs-researcher <technology> <topic> for <context>`

Always consult the knowledge base when clarification is needed.

Example:

User: /docs-researcher init
Actions:
  1. Bash(node ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/init.js .)
  2. Read CLAUDE.md (if exists, at project root)
  3. Write updated CLAUDE.md with knowledge base section
Response: Report what was created/updated

Mode 2: Research

When argument is a research request (not "init"), invoke the docs-researcher
 agent.

Task(
  subagent_type: "docs-researcher", 
  description: "Research documentation",
  prompt: "{user's research request}"
)

Agent will:

- Search the web for documentation

- Fetch and extract relevant content

- Save to .claude/skills/project-knowledge-base/references/

- Update the SKILL.md index

Example:

User: /docs-researcher TanStack Router beforeLoad for authentication guards
Action: Task(subagent_type: "docs-researcher", prompt: "TanStack Router beforeLoad for authentication guards")
Response: Agent's research results
