Write BrowserOS Documentation

This skill helps write documentation for BrowserOS features. It follows a structured workflow to create high-quality, concise documentation pages.

Workflow

Step 1: Understand the Feature

Before writing documentation, explore the codebase to understand the feature:

1. Ask the user which feature they want to document
2. Search the codebase at ../browseros-server (sibling directory) to find relevant code:
   • Use Grep to search for feature-related keywords
   • Use Glob to find relevant files
   • Read key files to understand how the feature works
3. Identify key aspects:
   • What problem does this feature solve?
   • How does the user enable/configure it?
   • What are the main use cases?

Step 2: Gather Screenshots

Ask the user to provide screenshots for the documentation:

1. Tell the user: "Please copy a screenshot to your clipboard (Cmd+C) that shows [specific UI element]"
2. Run: python scripts/save_clipboard.py docs/images/<feature-name>.png
3. Repeat for any additional screenshots needed

Step 3: Write the Documentation

Create the MDX file at docs/features/<feature-name>.mdx (or appropriate location) following this structure:

Copy---
title: "Feature Name"
description: "One sentence describing what this feature does"
---

[Opening paragraph: 1-2 sentences explaining what the feature does and why it matters]

## How It Works

[Explain the core mechanics in 2-3 paragraphs max]

## Getting Started

[Step-by-step instructions to use the feature]

1. Step one
2. Step two
3. Step three

## [Optional: Additional Sections]

[Only if necessary - keep the doc to ONE PAGE maximum]

Step 4: Update Navigation

Add the new page to docs/docs.json under the appropriate group in the navigation.groups array.

Step 5: Preview

Tell the user to run mint dev in the docs/ directory to preview the documentation.

Documentation Style Guide

• Concise: Maximum one page length
• Clear: Write for first-time BrowserOS users
• Practical: Focus on how to use the feature, not internal implementation details
• Visual: Use screenshots to show, not just tell
• No fluff: Skip unnecessary introductions or conclusions

Example: Ad Blocking Doc Structure

Copy---
title: "Ad Blocking"
description: "BrowserOS blocks 10x more ads than Chrome out of the box"
---

BrowserOS ships with built-in ad blocking that works immediately—no extensions required.

## How It Works

[2-3 paragraphs explaining the mechanics]

## BrowserOS vs Chrome

[Comparison with data/screenshots]

## What This Means

[1 paragraph on the practical benefits]
