Does this skill delete documentation blindly?

No, it performs a detailed section-by-section value analysis to ensure unique and essential information is preserved or condensed before any removal is proposed.

Will it break my internal links?

No, the skill includes a specific execution phase to update references in CLAUDE.md, README files, and internal imports to ensure no broken links remain after consolidation.

What metrics does the skill provide?

It generates a consolidation plan showing the original line count, the target line count, the percentage reduction, and a justification for every section kept or removed.

When should I trigger the docs-cleaner skill?

Use it when you notice redundant files covering the same topic, when documentation exceeds 500 lines across multiple files, or when you find yourself searching through multiple sources for the same information.

Content Management

Consolidates redundant documentation files and reduces sprawl while preserving all essential technical information and value.

The Documentation Cleaner skill streamlines project documentation by identifying redundant content across multiple files and merging them into a single, authoritative source of truth. It follows a rigorous four-phase process—Discovery, Value Analysis, Consolidation Planning, and Execution—to ensure that while line counts are significantly reduced, critical information like API references, setup steps, and troubleshooting guides are 100% preserved. This skill is ideal for teams facing documentation bloat or struggling with fragmented guides that have diverged over time, providing a clear audit trail of what was kept, condensed, or removed.
