  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • 7 bundled files

    Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.

  • Open source

    Published by einverne on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Docs Seeker AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.
2

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/einverne/dotfiles.git /tmp/dotfiles
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/dotfiles/claude/skills/docs-seeker .claude/skills/docs-seeker
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Docs Seeker in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Docs Seeker on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Docs Seeker is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Documentation Discovery & Analysis

Overview

Intelligent discovery and analysis of technical documentation through multiple strategies:

  1. llms.txt-first: Search for standardized AI-friendly documentation
  2. Repository analysis: Use Repomix to analyze GitHub repositories
  3. Parallel exploration: Deploy multiple Explorer agents for comprehensive coverage
  4. Fallback research: Use Researcher agents when other methods unavailable

Core Workflow

Phase 1: Initial Discovery

  1. Identify target

    • Extract library/framework name from user request
    • Note version requirements (default: latest)
    • Clarify scope if ambiguous
  2. Search for llms.txt

    WebSearch: "[library name] llms.txt site:[docs domain]"

    Common patterns:

    • https://docs.[library].com/llms.txt
    • https://[library].dev/llms.txt
    • https://[library].io/llms.txt

    → Found? Proceed to Phase 2 → Not found? Proceed to Phase 3

Phase 2: llms.txt Processing

Single URL:

  • WebFetch to retrieve content
  • Extract and present information

Multiple URLs (3+):

  • CRITICAL: Launch multiple Explorer agents in parallel
  • One agent per major documentation section (max 5 in first batch)
  • Each agent reads assigned URLs
  • Aggregate findings into consolidated report

Example:

Launch 3 Explorer agents simultaneously:
- Agent 1: getting-started.md, installation.md
- Agent 2: api-reference.md, core-concepts.md
- Agent 3: examples.md, best-practices.md

Phase 3: Repository Analysis

When llms.txt not found:

  1. Find GitHub repository via WebSearch
  2. Use Repomix to pack repository:
    bash
    npm install -g repomix  # if needed
    git clone [repo-url] /tmp/docs-analysis
    cd /tmp/docs-analysis
    repomix --output repomix-output.xml
  3. Read repomix-output.xml and extract documentation

Repomix benefits:

  • Entire repository in single AI-friendly file
  • Preserves directory structure
  • Optimized for AI consumption

Phase 4: Fallback Research

When no GitHub repository exists:

  • Launch multiple Researcher agents in parallel
  • Focus areas: official docs, tutorials, API references, community guides
  • Aggregate findings into consolidated report

Agent Distribution Guidelines

  • 1-3 URLs: Single Explorer agent
  • 4-10 URLs: 3-5 Explorer agents (2-3 URLs each)
  • 11+ URLs: 5-7 Explorer agents (prioritize most relevant)

Version Handling

Latest (default):

  • Search without version specifier
  • Use current documentation paths

Specific version:

  • Include version in search: [library] v[version] llms.txt
  • Check versioned paths: /v[version]/llms.txt
  • For repositories: checkout specific tag/branch

Output Format

Quick Reference

Tool selection:

  • WebSearch → Find llms.txt URLs, GitHub repositories
  • WebFetch → Read single documentation pages
  • Task (Explore) → Multiple URLs, parallel exploration
  • Task (Researcher) → Scattered documentation, diverse sources
  • Repomix → Complete codebase analysis

Popular llms.txt locations:

Error Handling

  • llms.txt not accessible → Try alternative domains → Repository analysis
  • Repository not found → Search official website → Use Researcher agents
  • Repomix fails → Try /docs directory only → Manual exploration
  • Multiple conflicting sources → Prioritize official → Note versions

Key Principles

  1. Always start with llms.txt — Most efficient method
  2. Use parallel agents aggressively — Faster results, better coverage
  3. Verify official sources — Avoid outdated documentation
  4. Report methodology — Tell user which approach was used
  5. Handle versions explicitly — Don't assume latest

The model reads these on demand while the skill is loaded. They are exposed as readable files and are never executed.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Docs Seeker AI skill do?

Searching internet for technical documentation using llms.txt standard, GitHub repositories via Repomix, and parallel exploration. Use when user needs: (1) Latest documentation for libraries/frameworks, (2) Documentation in llms.txt format, (3) GitHub repository analysis, (4) Documentation without direct llms.txt support, (5) Multiple documentation sources in parallel

Why use Docs Seeker on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Docs Seeker is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Docs Seeker in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/einverne/dotfiles/tree/master/claude/skills/docs-seeker. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Docs Seeker?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Docs Seeker?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Docs Seeker with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Docs Seeker AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by einverne under the GPL-3.0 license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
