v0.1.2 โ Docs for Humans, Too
Author
๐๏ธ July 2026
Until now, /genesis produced docs tuned for AI assistants โ accurate and traceable, but they read like a file index. This release adds a parallel set of human-facing guides, generated with their own writing contract.
โจ Features
- Human guides โ every project now also gets a
guides/section written for people, not machines:guides/getting-started.mdโ install, configure, run, verify (always generated)guides/onboarding.mdโ the mental model, why the project exists, and how to make your first change (always generated)guides/contributing.mdโ conventions, quality gates, and how to submit a change (only when there's a real contribution process to document)
- Docs index โ a
docs/README.mdlanding page is now generated, grouping every doc by section (Guides, Architecture, Reference, AI Context) with links, so the knowledge base reads as a structured site instead of loose files - The planner now knows about the guides and decides when
contributingis warranted
๐๏ธ Under the hood
- The human guides use a different prompt contract than the AI docs. Both keep the same anti-hallucination floor โ never invent a technology, file, or command, and never present a roadmap item as already built but the guides invert the writing rules: explain and connect instead of cataloguing, and lead with the why. When your repo already has author-written context (a
README,CONTEXT.md,CONTRIBUTING.md), the guides lean on it for intent instead of distrusting it, but there's nothing new you need to write; without those files, the guides are still generated from the code - The docs index is built deterministically (no LLM call), so it never drifts from the docs actually generated
