  • 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.

  • 4 bundled files

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

  • Open source

    Published by oliver-kriska on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Document 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/oliver-kriska/claude-elixir-phoenix.git /tmp/claude-elixir-phoenix
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/claude-elixir-phoenix/plugins/elixir-phoenix/skills/document .claude/skills/document
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Document 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 Document 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 Document 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.

Document

Generate documentation for newly implemented features.

Usage

/phx:document .claude/plans/magic-link-auth/plan.md
/phx:document magic link authentication
/phx:document  # Auto-detect from recent plan

Iron Laws

  1. Never remove existing documentation — Existing docs may reflect design intent that isn't obvious from code alone; update rather than replace
  2. @moduledoc on every public module — Undocumented modules accumulate quickly and create onboarding friction for new team members
  3. ADRs capture the "why", not the "what" — Code shows what was built; ADRs explain why this approach was chosen over alternatives
  4. Match @doc to function's public API — Document parameters, return values, and edge cases; callers shouldn't need to read the implementation
  5. DO NOT add @doc to untested code — documentation implies a stable contract; document only after tests confirm the function behaves as described

What Gets Documented

OutputDescription
@moduledocFor new modules missing documentation
@docFor public functions without docs
README sectionFor user-facing features
ADRFor significant architectural decisions

Workflow

Step 0: Pre-check (avoid no-op runs)

Run git diff --name-only HEAD~5 | grep '\.ex$' | head -20 to check for new .ex files.

If NO new .ex files were added (only modifications), skip the full audit and report: "No new modules — documentation coverage unchanged." This prevents 35-message analysis sessions that conclude "PASS" with zero output (confirmed: session bb0a0454 wasted ~2K tokens on no-op).

  1. Identify new modules from recent commits or plan file
  2. Check documentation coverage (@moduledoc, @doc)
  3. Generate missing docs using templates
  4. Add README section if user-facing feature
  5. Create ADR if architectural decision was made
  6. Write report to .claude/plans/{slug}/reviews/{feature}-docs.md

When to Generate ADRs

New database tableMaybe (if schema non-obvious)
New OTP processYes (explain why process needed)
New contextMaybe (if boundaries non-obvious)
New auth mechanismYes
Performance optimizationYes

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 Document AI skill do?

Generate @moduledoc/@doc for tested Elixir features; may update their README section or ADR. Not for docs lookup, documentation audits/reviews, or capturing standalone decisions.

Why use Document on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Document 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 Document in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/oliver-kriska/claude-elixir-phoenix/tree/main/plugins/elixir-phoenix/skills/document. 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 Document?

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 Document?

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

Is the Document AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by oliver-kriska under the MIT 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.
