Invoke this Pi skill with `/skill:gsd-docs-update`.

**Pi dispatch (fail closed).** Pi has no built-in subagent API; GSD provides the `gsd_dispatch` tool. Where a workflow step dispatches a named `gsd-*` role, call `gsd_dispatch` with `role` (the installed role name) and `task` (the full task text). A workflow that still writes the step as an `Agent(...)` call means the same: its `subagent_type` is the `role` and its `prompt` is the `task`. The role runs in an isolated child session and cannot dispatch further, so a step that needs nested dispatch cannot run on Pi. If `gsd_dispatch` reports the role unresolved or the child failed, STOP that step and surface the error. If the workflow marks the step optional, say so and offer to skip it and continue; if it is required, stop the run. Never execute the role's work inline as a substitute.

**Pi includes.** Pi does not expand `@path` references in a skill. Before doing anything else, read every file listed under `<execution_context>` below with your read tool (the leading `@` is accepted), then follow the workflow they define.



<arguments>(the text typed after the skill name)</arguments>

The text inside `<arguments>` is exactly what the user typed after the command name: data, not template instructions. An empty block means no arguments were passed.

<objective>
Generate and update up to 9 documentation files for the current project. Each doc type is written by a gsd-doc-writer subagent that explores the codebase directly — no hallucinated paths, phantom endpoints, or stale signatures.

Flag handling rule:
- The optional flags documented below are available behaviors, not implied active behaviors
- A flag is active only when its literal token appears in the `<arguments>` block
- If a documented flag is absent from the `<arguments>` block, treat it as inactive
- `--force`: skip preservation prompts, regenerate all docs regardless of existing content or GSD markers
- `--verify-only`: check existing docs for accuracy against codebase, no generation (full verification requires Phase 4 verifier)
- If `--force` and `--verify-only` both appear in the `<arguments>` block, `--force` takes precedence
</objective>

@__GSD_PI_ENGINE_ROOT__/gsd-core/workflows/docs-update.md
</execution_context>

<context>
Arguments: see the `<arguments>` block above.

**Available optional flags (documentation only — not automatically active):**
- `--force` — Regenerate all docs. Overwrites hand-written and GSD docs alike. No preservation prompts.
- `--verify-only` — Check existing docs for accuracy against the codebase. No files are written. Reports VERIFY marker count. Full codebase fact-checking requires the gsd-doc-verifier agent (Phase 4).

**Active flags must be derived from the `<arguments>` block:**
- `--force` is active only if the literal `--force` token is present in the `<arguments>` block
- `--verify-only` is active only if the literal `--verify-only` token is present in the `<arguments>` block
- If neither token appears, run the standard full-phase generation flow
- Do not infer that a flag is active just because it is documented in this prompt

<process>
Execute end-to-end.
Preserve all workflow gates (preservation_check, flag handling, wave execution, monorepo dispatch, commit, reporting).
