Can I use this for documenting internal Remotion APIs?

No, this skill follows the guideline that documentation is strictly for public APIs only and should not reference internal implementation details.

Does this skill help with site navigation?

Yes, it reminds you to add any new documentation pages to the packages/docs/sidebars.ts file to ensure they are visible in the sidebar.

How do I indicate which version introduced a feature?

The skill instructs you to use the component within headings or inline text to provide clear versioning history.

What is the 'One API per page' rule?

This rule ensures that every function or API has a dedicated documentation page to improve searchability and prevent information overload.

How does this skill handle code snippets?

It promotes the use of twoslash for compile-time type checking and provides instructions for using the // ---cut--- syntax to hide boilerplate imports from the rendered view.
