docs-search Guide
Library-documentation lookup methodology — API behavior, version-specific changes, idiomatic usage, or why production diverges from docs — independent of which library. Distills the generic navigation moves shared across libraries — classify the question before searching (changelog vs API reference vs idiom vs known-bug), check llms.txt before scraping HTML, pin to the user's version before reading reference pages, read changelog first for "did X change" questions, treat examples/ dirs as truth for idioms, and fall back to GitHub issues / status page / Discord when docs match but reality doesn't. Per-library topography lives in the shared /knowledge/libraries/ graph as thin reference data, alongside code-distill's section. Triggers on "where in <library> docs", "look this up in <library>", "did <library> change X", "docs say X but code does Y", and any prompt where the next move is to consult a library's official documentation.
