Documentation Research Skill

This skill enforces documentation research before any technical implementation to ensure code follows current best practices.

Core Principle

NO IMPLEMENTATION WITHOUT DOCUMENTATION RESEARCH

Before writing ANY code:

Search official documentation online
Verify current best practices
Check for deprecated patterns
Report findings to user
Only then proceed

Documentation Sources

Technology	Primary Documentation
Django	docs.djangoproject.com
FastAPI	fastapi.tiangolo.com
React	react.dev
Python	docs.python.org
TypeScript	typescriptlang.org/docs

Research Protocol

Search Official Docs - Use WebSearch/WebFetch
Verify Version - Check latest stable release
Review Best Practices - Note recommended patterns
Check Deprecations - Avoid outdated APIs
Document Findings - Summarize before implementing
