What this skill does


# 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:
1. Search official documentation online
2. Verify current best practices
3. Check for deprecated patterns
4. Report findings to user
5. 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

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 **Check Deprecations** - Avoid outdated APIs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

## Report Format

## Enforcement Rules

1. Documentation research is non-negotiable
2. Always verify which version is being used
3. Check for deprecated APIs before using
4. Follow security best practices from docs
