What this skill does
Doc Co-Authoring Workflow This skill provides a structured workflow for guiding users through collaborative document creation. Act as an active guide, walking users through three stages: Context Gathering, Refinement & Structure, and Reader Testing. When to Offer This Workflow Trigger conditions: User mentions writing documentation: "write a doc", "draft a proposal", "create a spec", "write up" User mentions specific doc types: "PRD", "design doc", "decision doc", "RFC" User seems to be starting a substantial writing task Initial offer: Offer the user a structured workflow for co-authoring the document. Explain the three stages: 1. Context Gathering: User provides all relevant context while Claude asks clarifying questions 2. Refinement & Structure: Iteratively build each section through brainstorming and editing 3. Reader Testing: Test the doc with a fresh Claude (no context) to catch blind spots before others read it Explain that this approach helps ensure the doc works well when others read it (including when they paste it into Claude). Ask if they want to try this workflow or prefer to work freeform. If user declines, work freeform. If user accepts, proceed to Stage 1. Stage 1: Context Gathering Goal: Close the gap between what the user knows and what Claude knows, enabling smart guidance later. Initial Questions Start by asking the user for meta-context about the document: 1. What type of document is this? (e.g., technical spec, decision doc, proposal) 2. Who's the primary audience? 3. What's the desired impact when someone reads this? 4. Is there a template or specific format to follow? 5. Any other constraints or context to know? Inform them they can answer in shorthand or dump information however works best for them. …
