What this skill does
Generate missing documentation from scratch for a feature, module, or entire project. (gstack) Uses the Diataxis framework (tutorial / how-to / reference / explanation) to produce complete, structured documentation. Can be invoked standalone or called by /document-release when it finds coverage gaps. Use when asked to "write docs", "generate documentation", "document this feature", "create a tutorial", or "explain this module".
