Software Manual Skill
Generate comprehensive, interactive software manuals in TiddlyWiki-style single-file HTML format.
Architecture Overview

Key Design Principles
- 主 Agent 编排,子 Agent 执行: 所有繁重计算委托给
universal-executor子 Agent - Brief Returns: Agents return path + summary, not full content (avoid context overflow)
- System Agents: 使用
cli-explore-agent(探索) 和universal-executor(执行) - 成熟库内嵌: marked.js (MD 解析) + highlight.js (语法高亮),无 CDN 依赖
- Single-File HTML: TiddlyWiki-style interactive document with embedded resources
- 动态标签: 根据实际章节自动生成导航标签
Execution Flow
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Phase 1: Requirements Discovery (主 Agent) │
│ → AskUserQuestion: 收集软件类型、目标用户、文档范围 │
│ → Output: manual-config.json │
├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ Phase 2: Project Exploration (cli-explore-agent × N) │
│ → 并行探索: architecture, ui-routes, api-endpoints, config │
│ → Output: exploration-*.json │
├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ Phase 2.5: API Extraction (extract_apis.py) │
│ → 自动提取: FastAPI/TypeDoc/pdoc │
│ → Output: api-docs/{backend,frontend,modules}/*.md │
├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ Phase 3: Parallel Analysis (universal-executor × 6) │
│ → 6 个子 Agent 并行: overview, ui-guide, api-docs, config, │
│ troubleshooting, code-examples │
│ → Output: sections/section-*.md │
├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ Phase 3.5: Consolidation (universal-executor) │
│ → 质量检查: 一致性、交叉引用、截图标记 │
│ → Output: consolidation-summary.md, screenshots-list.json │
├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ Phase 4: Screenshot Capture (universal-executor + Chrome MCP) │
│ → 批量截图: 调用 mcp__chrome__screenshot │
│ → Output: screenshots/*.png + manifest.json │
├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ Phase 5: HTML Assembly (universal-executor) │
│ → 组装 HTML: MD→tiddlers, 嵌入 CSS/JS/图片 │
│ → Output: {name}-使用手册.html │
├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ Phase 6: Iterative Refinement (主 Agent) │
│ → 预览 + 用户反馈 + 迭代修复 │
│ → Output: iterations/v*.html │

Agent Return Format
typescript
interface ManualAgentReturn {
status: "completed" | "partial" | "failed";
output_file: string;
summary: string; // Max 50 chars
screenshots_needed: Array<{
id: string; // e.g., "ss-login-form"
url: string; // Relative or absolute URL
description: string; // "Login form interface"
selector?: string; // CSS selector for partial screenshot
wait_for?: string; // Element to wait for
}>;
cross_references: string[]; // Other sections referenced
difficulty_level: "beginner" | "intermediate" | "advanced";
}
HTML Features (TiddlyWiki-style)
- Search: Full-text search with result highlighting
- Collapse/Expand: Per-section collapsible content
- Tag Navigation: Filter by category tags
- Theme Toggle: Light/Dark mode with localStorage persistence
- Single File: All CSS/JS/images embedded as Base64
- Offline: Works without internet connection
- Print-friendly: Optimized print stylesheet
Directory Setup
javascript
// Generate timestamp directory name
const timestamp = new Date().toISOString().slice(0,19).replace(/[-:T]/g, '');
const dir = `.workflow/.scratchpad/manual-${timestamp}`;
// Windows
Bash(`mkdir "${dir}\\sections" && mkdir "${dir}\\screenshots" && mkdir "${dir}\\api-docs" && mkdir "${dir}\\iterations"`);
