DEPRECATED - This skill references MCP servers that no longer exist in the codebase. The CodebaseDocumentation server was archived during MCP cleanup. Use native file reading tools (view_file, grep_search) for documentation access.

⚠️ DEPRECATED: MCP Documentation Skill

STATUS: This skill is deprecated and should not be used.

Why This Skill Was Deprecated

During the MCP cleanup (December 2025), we removed custom documentation caching servers due to:

Stale Cache Issues: Cached content became outdated as files changed
Complexity Overhead: Custom server maintenance vs. native file access
Redundancy: Direct file reading is simpler and more reliable
Single Source of Truth: Reading files directly ensures accuracy

Servers That Were Removed

❌ CodebaseDocumentation (
```
documentation-server.py
```
) - Moved to
```
_legacy_archive/
```
❌ All custom documentation indexing and caching

Migration Guide

Old Approach (Using This Deprecated Skill)

method: search_docs("deployment")
Risk: Returns cached (potentially stale) content
Token Claim: "90% token savings"
Reality: Cache invalidation issues outweigh benefits

New Approach (Recommended)

# Direct file access (always current)
view_file /path/to/DOCUMENTATION.md

# Search across documentation
grep_search "deployment" in .claude/docs/

# Find specific docs
find_by_name "*.md" in .claude/

# List available agents
list_dir /home/njd/careercopilot/careercopilot-1/.claude/agents/

# List available skills  
list_dir /home/njd/careercopilot/careercopilot-1/.claude/skills/

What To Use Instead

Old MCP Method	New Approach	Benefits
`search_docs`	`grep_search` with .md files	Always current, no cache staleness
`get_docs`	`view_file` on specific doc	Direct access, no caching layer
`get_agents`	`list_dir` + `view_file`	See actual file structure
`get_skills`	`list_dir` + `view_file`	See actual file structure
`index`	`find_by_name` + directory listing	Real-time file discovery

Accessing Documentation

List All Agents

// Old: mcp_documentation_get_agents()
// New:
list_dir("/home/njd/careercopilot/careercopilot-1/.claude/agents/")
// Then view specific agents:
view_file("/home/njd/careercopilot/careercopilot-1/.claude/agents/devops-specialist.md")

List All Skills

// Old: mcp_documentation_get_skills()
// New:
list_dir("/home/njd/careercopilot/careercopilot-1/.claude/skills/")
// Then view specific skill:
view_file("/home/njd/careercopilot/careercopilot-1/.claude/skills/component-builder/SKILL.md")

Search Documentation

// Old: mcp_documentation_search_docs("deployment")
// New:
grep_search({
  SearchPath: "/home/njd/careercopilot/careercopilot-1/.claude/docs",
  Query: "deployment",
  Includes: ["*.md"],
  MatchPerLine: true
})

Find Workflows

// Old: Not available in old MCP
// New:
list_dir("/home/njd/careercopilot/careercopilot-1/.agent/workflows/")
view_file("/home/njd/careercopilot/careercopilot-1/.agent/workflows/component_builder.md")

Performance Reality Check

Token Savings Claim: "90-95% per request"

Reality:

Native file reading is fast (<100ms)
No cache invalidation complexity
Always shows current content
Simpler mental model
No custom server maintenance

The "token savings" were theoretical and didn't account for:

Cache invalidation overhead
Stale content debugging
Server maintenance complexity
CI/CD integration issues
