docs-write

The docs-write skill guides documentation creation in Metabase's conversational, user-focused style. Use it when writing or editing markdown and MDX documentation files to ensure clarity through audience-appropriate complexity, direct answers, actionable headings, descriptive links, and tested code examples while maintaining American spelling and minimal formatting.

# Documentation Writing Skill

@./../_shared/metabase-style-guide.md

## When writing documentation

### Start here

1. **Who is this for?** Match complexity to audience. Don't oversimplify hard things or overcomplicate simple ones.
2. **What do they need?** Get them to the answer fast. Nobody wants to be in docs longer than necessary.
3. **What did you struggle with?** Those common questions you had when learning? Answer them (without literally including the question).

### Writing process

**Draft:**

- Write out the steps/explanation as you'd tell a colleague
- Lead with what to do, then explain why
- Use headings that state your point: "Set SAML before adding users" not "SAML configuration timing"

**Edit:**

- Read aloud. Does it sound like you talking? If it's too formal, simplify.
- Cut anything that doesn't directly help the reader
- Check each paragraph has one clear purpose
- Verify examples actually work (don't give examples that error)

**Polish:**

- Make links descriptive (never "here")
- Backticks only for code/variables, **bold** for UI elements
- American spelling, serial commas
- Keep images minimal and scoped tight

**Format:**

- Run prettier on the file after making edits: `yarn prettier --write <file-path>`
- This ensures consistent formatting across all documentation

### Common patterns

**Instructions:**

```markdown
Run:
\`\`\`
command-to-run
\`\`\`

Then:
\`\`\`
next-command
\`\`\`

This ensures you're getting the latest changes.
```

Not: "(remember to run X before Y...)" buried in a paragraph.

**Headings:**

- "Use environment variables for configuration" ✅
- "Environment variables" ❌ (too vague)
- "How to use environment variables for configuration" ❌ (too wordy)

**Links:**

- "Check out the [SAML documentation](link)" ✅
- "Read the docs [here](link)" ❌

### Watch out for

- Describing tasks as "easy" (you don't know the reader's context)
- Using "we" when talking about Metabase features (use "Metabase" or "it")
- Formal language: "utilize", "reference", "offerings"
- Too peppy: multiple exclamation points
- Burying the action in explanation
- Code examples that don't work
- Numbers that will become outdated

### Quick reference

adaptyvSkill

Cloud laboratory platform for automated protein testing and validation. Use when designing proteins and needing experimental validation including binding assays, expression testing, thermostability measurements, enzyme activity assays, or protein sequence optimization. Also use for submitting experiments via API, tracking experiment status, downloading results, optimizing protein sequences for better expression using computational tools (NetSolP, SoluProt, SolubleMPNN, ESM), or managing protein design workflows with wet-lab validation.

aeonSkill

This skill should be used for time series machine learning tasks including classification, regression, clustering, forecasting, anomaly detection, segmentation, and similarity search. Use when working with temporal data, sequential patterns, or time-indexed observations requiring specialized algorithms beyond standard ML approaches. Particularly suited for univariate and multivariate time series analysis with scikit-learn compatible APIs.

algorithmic-artSkill

Creating algorithmic art using p5.js with seeded randomness and interactive parameter exploration. Use this when users request creating art using code, generative art, algorithmic art, flow fields, or particle systems. Create original algorithmic art rather than copying existing artists' work to avoid copyright violations.

alpha-vantageSkill

Access real-time and historical stock market data, forex rates, cryptocurrency prices, commodities, economic indicators, and 50+ technical indicators via the Alpha Vantage API. Use when fetching stock prices (OHLCV), company fundamentals (income statement, balance sheet, cash flow), earnings, options data, market news/sentiment, insider transactions, GDP, CPI, treasury yields, gold/silver/oil prices, Bitcoin/crypto prices, forex exchange rates, or calculating technical indicators (SMA, EMA, MACD, RSI, Bollinger Bands). Requires a free API key from alphavantage.co.

architecture-patternsSkill

Implement proven backend architecture patterns including Clean Architecture, Hexagonal Architecture, and Domain-Driven Design. Use when architecting complex backend systems or refactoring existing applications for better maintainability.

astropySkill

Comprehensive Python library for astronomy and astrophysics. This skill should be used when working with astronomical data including celestial coordinates, physical units, FITS files, cosmological calculations, time systems, tables, world coordinate systems (WCS), and astronomical data analysis. Use when tasks involve coordinate transformations, unit conversions, FITS file manipulation, cosmological distance calculations, time scale conversions, or astronomical data processing.

autonomous-builderSkill

Full-stack software development agent for design, implementation, testing, and deployment. Use when the user explicitly asks for end-to-end project creation, feature development, bug fixing, or code refactoring.

bio-database-evidenceSkill

Unified biological database evidence owner. Use for gene annotation, variant clinical significance, cancer mutation evidence, GWAS trait associations, pathway mapping, target-disease evidence, protein structures, protein interaction networks, reference single-cell census queries, and cross-database biological ID mapping. Do not use for full single-cell analysis, bulk RNA-seq differential expression, BAM/VCF processing, protein embedding models, metabolic flux modeling, genomic interval ML, or flow-cytometry file parsing.
