Where does it store internal developer notes?

Internal-only changes that don't affect end-users are documented in CLAUDE.md or agent-specific documentation to keep the main README focused on users.

How does the skill determine what needs to be documented?

The skill performs a git diff to analyze recent changes, then applies a decision matrix to categorize the update as a new feature, CLI option, behavior change, or internal refactor.

Does it work with CLI help commands?

Absolutely. It can run your CLI tool with --help flags to verify that the documentation matches the actual program output and update help strings in the source code if necessary.

Can it handle localized documentation?

Yes, it specifically checks for consistency between primary documentation and localized versions, such as README.md and README.ja.md.
