Review code changes and update project documentation for consistency.
| Mode | How to activate | Behavior |
|---|---|---|
delta (default) | No argument, or say "delta" | Diff against merge-base with origin/main + working tree changes |
full | Say "full audit" or "full sync" | Complete audit of all docs against current codebase |
| Scope keyword | Say the keyword (e.g. "db", "api") | Targeted check (see Scope Filters below) |
Identify changed files using merge-base (not a fixed commit count):
# Branch changes since diverging from main
git diff --name-only $(git merge-base HEAD origin/main)...HEAD
# Plus staged + unstaged
git diff --name-only --cached
git diff --name-only
Combine the results into a single list of changed files. Then use the Impact Mapping to identify which docs may need updates.
Map changed areas to the docs they affect:
| Changed area | Affected docs |
|---|---|
apps/controller/src/routes/ | specs/references/api-patterns.md, ARCHITECTURE.md, specs/product-specs/*.md (if route is user-facing) |
apps/web/src/pages/ or apps/web/src/app.tsx | specs/FRONTEND.md |
apps/landing/ | ARCHITECTURE.md (Monorepo layout) |
apps/controller/src/runtime/ | ARCHITECTURE.md, specs/RELIABILITY.md |
packages/shared/src/schemas/ | ARCHITECTURE.md (Type safety) |
package.json scripts | CLAUDE.md + AGENTS.md Commands sections |
| New apps/packages dirs | ARCHITECTURE.md (Monorepo layout) |
| Config generator | specs/references/openclaw-config-schema.md, specs/openclaw-config-reference.md |
| Auth changes | specs/SECURITY.md |
| New/moved doc files | CLAUDE.md Doc Map, AGENTS.md Where to look, relevant index files |
Always verify consistency between these paired docs:
CLAUDE.md Commands section <-> AGENTS.md Commands section (same entries)CLAUDE.md Documentation Map paths <-> actual files on diskCLAUDE.md Hard Rules <-> AGENTS.md Hard rulesARCHITECTURE.md monorepo layout <-> actual apps/ + packages/ dirsspecs/DESIGN.md table <-> actual specs/design-specs/ + specs/designs/ contentsspecs/design-specs/index.md table <-> actual design filesspecs/product-specs/index.md table <-> actual specs/product-specs/*.md filesspecs/PLANS.md table <-> specs/exec-plans/{active,completed}/ contentsspecs/FRONTEND.md Pages table <-> apps/web/src/app.tsx routesWhen the user specifies a scope keyword, limit the check to that area:
| Keyword | What it checks |
|---|---|
db | Schema source vs specs/generated/db-schema.md |
api | Route files vs specs/references/api-patterns.md |
frontend | apps/web/ vs specs/FRONTEND.md |
commands | package.json scripts vs CLAUDE.md/AGENTS.md Commands sections |
architecture | All apps/ + packages/ vs ARCHITECTURE.md layout |
security | Auth/crypto code vs specs/SECURITY.md |
links | Verify all doc map paths and index references resolve to existing files |
guides | specs/guides/** internal cross-references |
designs | specs/designs/** + specs/design-specs/** vs index files |
exec-plans | specs/exec-plans/** vs specs/PLANS.md |
product-specs | specs/product-specs/** vs index + specs/PRODUCT_SENSE.md |
apps/controller as the source of truth; do not reference removed legacy package paths.CLAUDE.md <-> AGENTS.md consistency after any update to either file.
