Description
Compound Docs is an agent skill that turns a problem you have just solved into a short, categorized written note. Once a fix is confirmed, the skill saves it as one markdown file inside a folder named for its symptom category, so the notes build up into a searchable record for future sessions. Each file starts with YAML frontmatter holding its metadata, which is what makes lookups quick. Problem types are checked against a fixed list, so entries stay consistent from one to the next, and the capture follows a seven-step sequence in a set order. It is part of the Compound Engineering plugin from Every and suits teams that want their debugging work kept as reference notes instead of written up by hand afterwards. The skill is listed on skills.sh and is installed with a single npx command that points at its GitHub repository.…
