Description
Hi HNI recently published docs-cli to pypi. I created this tool because I noticed that my docs kept getting out of sync: I've been using markdown to track the project's implementation and progress, and it became really hard to keep track of everything. This is a simple tool for your agents to ensure that links and indexes are kept fresh.I included the agent-playbook-suite marketplace since this is how I use it. The docs repo was actually built also using it, so dogfooding since day one :) The Agent Playbook Suite includes everything needed to create a project from start to finish.Linked is the blog post where I lay out my rationale and the use cases :)Try docs-cli out with: python3 -m pip install --upgrade docs-cli I would love feedback, issues, and PRs.This is my first Show HN after lurking for over 15 years. Happy to hear any constructive (or other) criticism

Could you build this?
Yes It is a Python CLI and prompt/skill suite that formats, organizes, and updates local Markdown files to keep agent context consistent.

Same idea, different domain
Nobody's really built a dev tools tool for Sales yet.
