# arc42 Documentation Skill
This skill is vendored under the MIT license, copyright Melodic Software. The
license is stored beside this file and must stay with any copy. It owns
`docs/ARCHITECTURE.md` together with `c4-model`, as the project file set in
`buzz-team-communication` states. The only change from the original is the
step list below, which no longer requires a `docs-management` skill or a
Perplexity MCP server; neither ships with this plugin.
## When to Use This Skill
Use this skill when:
- **Arc42 Documentation tasks** - Working on arc42 architecture documentation template and guidance
- **Planning or design** - Need guidance on Arc42 Documentation approaches
- **Best practices** - Want to follow established patterns and standards
## Overview
Create comprehensive architecture documentation using the arc42 template.
## MANDATORY: Documentation-First Approach
Before creating arc42 documentation:
1. **Read the project's existing architecture documentation** before writing,
so the result continues it instead of replacing it
2. **Check the current arc42 version** at [`arc42.org`](https://arc42.org) when
a web lookup is available, and say so when it is not
3. **Base guidance on the official arc42 template**
