Documentation Review

Scope

The method is verification, not proofreading. Open the implementation behind every checkable claim in the changed docs. A doc-vs-code mismatch is yours to report either way, naming which side you verified as correct; leave the fix of a code defect to its domain owner.

Discipline

A finding in a class .agents/skills/orch/references/finding-disposition.md Step 0 excludes is declined before its truth is examined. Do not write it. For a symlink, .., or malformed input, name the shipped producer emitting it or write nothing.

Probes

  • Claims: for each concrete claim (X calls Y, Z is gated by W, invariant holds, event fires when…), confirm it in the code. Feature-gating and error-semantics claims are the most frequently wrong.
  • Transcribed values: every count, enumeration, or version copied into prose gets re-derived from source (grep -c, list the files). Hand-transcribed numbers are wrong often enough to check every one. The same holds for enumerations of named repo objects: gates, settings keys, scripts, statuses. Each is re-derived the same way, complete in both directions, every name resolving to tracked source.
  • Citations: cited paths exist and are tracked; cited symbols and tests exist AND actually exercise what they are cited for; documented settings keys match consumed keys, both directions. (Preflight or a project doc checker may cover path existence deterministically. Cite their output, spend your pass on what only reading code can verify.)
  • Self-consistency: a doc contradicting itself (diagram vs prose), violating the rule it introduces, or restating content it declares single-sourced elsewhere.
  • Comments and prose: changed comments or docs that contradict the code, narrate revision history or provenance, or claim more than the adjacent assertion enforces.
  • Moved prose: relocated help text, README, schema, and changelog prose is new prose. Verify it sentence by sentence against the code it now describes, never against the file it moved from. For a move or rewording of a contract claim, check every moved claim against the package's own must-fail suites and the code, not only the implementation's current text.
  • Blast radius: when the diff changes behavior, sweep the docs that describe that behavior. Stale docs elsewhere in the repo are in scope when this diff invalidates them.

Output

Wrong claims, wrong values, dead citations, contradicted invariants → blockers[]. Minor improvements → suggestions[].
