Generates a TODO-style report. argument-hint: "[optional: module-name or 'all']" allowed-tools: Read, Glob, Grep, Bash(scan-undocumented:), Bash(bash:)

Finding Undocumented Areas

Scan the ZIO Blocks project to identify documentation gaps — public types, modules, and packages that lack coverage in the docs/ directory. Produce a comprehensive report saved to docs/undocumented-report.md.

Scope

$ARGUMENTS

If a specific module name is given (e.g., schema, chunk, scope), focus the analysis and recommendations on that module. Otherwise, scan the entire project.

Step 1: Run the Scanner Script

Run the automated scanner to produce raw coverage data:

bash .claude/skills/finding-undocumented/scan-undocumented.sh

Save the output to docs/undocumented-report.md.

Step 2: Enrich the Report with Manual Analysis

The bash script provides a mechanical scan. Now add intelligence by doing the following:

2a. Review the undocumented types

For each undocumented type flagged by the script:

  1. Read the source file to understand what the type does.
  2. Classify its documentation priority:
    • Critical: Core public API types that users interact with directly (e.g., Schema, Codec, Chunk). These need dedicated reference pages.
    • High: Important supporting types that appear in public API signatures (e.g., Validation, Modifier, DynamicValue). These need at least a section in a related page.
    • Medium: Internal-but-visible types that advanced users may encounter (e.g., Deriver, ReflectTransformer). These need brief mention.
    • Low: Truly internal types, platform-specific implementations, or test helpers. These can be skipped.
  3. Update the priority in the report — move types into the correct priority section.

2b. Check documentation depth

For types that DO have documentation pages, check whether the coverage is adequate:

  1. Read the existing doc page.
  2. Read the source file for the type.
  3. Look for:
    • Missing methods: Public methods on the type or companion that are not documented.
    • Missing examples: Types documented with prose but no code examples.
    • Outdated signatures: Method signatures in docs that don't match current source.
    • Missing cross-references: Related types that should link to each other but don't.

Add a "Documentation Depth" section to the report with these findings.

2c. Identify conceptual gaps

Beyond type-level coverage, look for missing conceptual documentation:

  1. Getting started guide: Is there a quick-start for new users?
  2. Migration guides: Any version migration docs needed?
  3. How-to guides: Common tasks that need step-by-step guides.
  4. Architecture overview: High-level design docs for contributors.

Add these as a separate "Conceptual Gaps" section.

Step 3: Write the Final Report

Write the final report to docs/undocumented-report.md with this structure:

---
id: undocumented-report
title: "Documentation Coverage Report"
---

# Documentation Coverage Report

## Summary
[Coverage statistics table from script]

## Critical: Missing Reference Pages
[Types that need dedicated doc pages, with brief description of each]

## High Priority: Incomplete Coverage
[Types with pages that need expansion, or important types without pages]

## Medium Priority: Brief Mentions Needed
[Types that should be mentioned in related pages]

## Documentation Depth Issues
[Existing pages that need updates — missing methods, examples, etc.]

## Conceptual Gaps
[Missing guides, overviews, tutorials]

## Low Priority / Skip
[Internal types that don't need documentation, with brief justification]

## Suggested Actions
[Ordered TODO checklist of documentation tasks]

Report Guidelines

  • Use - [ ] checkbox syntax for actionable items so they serve as a TODO list.
  • Include source file paths so a documentation writer can quickly find the code.
  • For each suggested action, estimate scope: "new page", "new section", "brief mention", or "update existing".
  • Group suggestions by module for easy assignment.

Step 4: Update Index

Do NOT add the report to docs/index.md — it is an internal tracking document, not user-facing documentation.
