Standards for consistent documentation structure in Claude Code projects. ## Overview This skill defines conventions for thirteen documentation types: | Type | Purpose | Structure | |------|---------|-----------| | **References** | Project-specific guides (deployment, architecture) | Numbered files (`00-index.md`, `01-topic.md`) | | **Docs** | Library/dependency documentation | Same as references | | **Skills** | Claude capability extensions | `SKILL.md` + `references/`, <500 lines, tested triggers, gotchas, behavioral evals via `skill-creator` | | **Plans** | Multi-session implementation tracking | Phases with checkboxes | | **Requests** | Incoming tasks and product requirements | Single dated file | | **Decisions** | Architecture/product decision records | Single dated file with context, options, outcome | | **Backlog** | Deferred/parked ideas queued for later | Single dated file (`YYYY-
