A doc management workflow for AI-assisted coding: progressive disclosure plus AGENTS.md enforcement
dotey · x · 2026-09-23
- dotey shares his doc management setup for AI-assisted development:
- Keep all docs in a docs directory using progressive disclosure: each doc stays small, main docs hold only summaries and links to section files.
- A root README serves as the index.
- AGENTS.md enforces the rule that changing a feature requires updating related docs, with periodic human checks as backup.
- For changes, he recommends discussing the plan with AI first and syncing docs after the plan is confirmed, rather than editing docs by hand first.
