plugins/python3-development/skills/mkdocs/SKILL.md
Comprehensive guide for creating and managing MkDocs documentation projects with Material theme. Includes official CLI command reference with complete parameters and arguments, and mkdocs.yml configuration reference with all available settings and valid values. Use when working with MkDocs projects including site initialization, mkdocs.yml configuration, Material theme customization, plugin integration, or building static documentation sites from Markdown files.

[TODO: 1-2 sentences explaining what this skill enables]
[TODO: Choose the structure that best fits this skill's purpose. Common patterns:
1. Workflow-Based (best for sequential processes)
2. Task-Based (best for tool collections)
3. Reference/Guidelines (best for standards or specifications)
4. Capabilities-Based (best for integrated systems)
Patterns can be mixed and matched as needed. Most skills combine patterns (e.g., start with task-based, add workflow for complex operations).
Delete this entire "Structuring This Skill" section when done - it's just guidance.]
[TODO: Add content here. See examples in existing skills:
This skill includes example resource directories that demonstrate how to organize different types of bundled resources:
Executable code (Python/Bash/etc.) that can be run directly to perform specific operations.
Examples from other skills:
fill_fillable_fields.py, extract_form_field_info.py - utilities for PDF manipulationdocument.py, utilities.py - Python modules for document processingAppropriate for: Python scripts, shell scripts, or any executable code that performs automation, data processing, or specific operations.
Note: Scripts may be executed without loading into context, but can still be read by Claude for patching or environment adjustments.
Documentation and reference material intended to be loaded into context to inform Claude's process and thinking.
Examples from other skills:
communication.md, context_building.md - detailed workflow guidesAppropriate for: In-depth documentation, API references, database schemas, comprehensive guides, or any detailed information that Claude should reference while working.
Files not intended to be loaded into context, but rather used within the output Claude produces.
Examples from other skills:
Appropriate for: Templates, boilerplate code, document templates, images, icons, fonts, or any files meant to be copied or used in the final output.
Any unneeded directories can be deleted. Not every skill requires all three types of resources.
development
When an application needs to store config, data, cache, or state files. When designing where user-specific files should live. When code writes to ~/.appname or hardcoded home paths. When implementing cross-platform file storage with platformdirs.
testing
Enforce mandatory pre-action verification checkpoints to prevent pattern-matching from overriding explicit reasoning. Use this skill when about to execute implementation actions (Bash, Write, Edit) to verify hypothesis-action alignment. Blocks execution when hypothesis unverified or action targets different system than hypothesis identified. Critical for preventing cognitive dissonance where correct diagnosis leads to wrong implementation.
tools
Reference guide for the Twelve-Factor App methodology — 15 principles (12 original + 3 modern extensions) for building portable, resilient, cloud-native applications. Use when evaluating application architecture, designing cloud-native services, reviewing codebases for methodology compliance, advising on configuration, scaling, observability, security, and deployment patterns. Incorporates the 2025 open-source community evolution and cloud-native reinterpretations of each factor.
tools
Converts user-facing documentation (how-to guides, tutorials, API references, examples) in any format — Markdown, PDF, DOCX, PPTX, XLSX, AsciiDoc, RST, HTML, Jupyter notebooks, man pages, TOML/YAML/JSON configs, and plain text — into Claude Code skill directories with SKILL.md plus thematically grouped references/*.md files. Use when given a docs directory or mixed-format documentation to transform into an AI skill. Uses MCP file-reader server for binary formats.
