## Summary - Introduce C0/C1/C2 change classification based on the Mikado method, where documentation cards serve as persistent context for agents across sessions - Add `docs-mikado` mise task to visualize active Mikado dependency chains from `status: active` and `requires` frontmatter fields - Rename `zk-docs` task to `ai-docs` ## Changes - **New:** `docs/how-to/agent-change-process.md` — methodology card - **New:** `mise-tasks/docs-mikado` — Python uv script for dependency graph visualization - **Renamed:** `mise-tasks/zk-docs` → `mise-tasks/ai-docs` - **Updated:** `CLAUDE.md` — added Change Classification section, updated references - **Updated:** `ai-assistance-guide.md`, `exploring-the-docs.md`, `how-to.md` — updated references and index ## Verification - [x] `mise run ai-docs` works - [x] `mise run docs-mikado` runs (no active chains yet, as expected) - [x] `docs-check-links` — all valid - [x] `docs-check-index` — all indexed - [x] `docs-check-frontmatter` — all valid - [x] All pre-commit hooks pass 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Reviewed-on: https://forge.ops.eblu.me/eblume/blumeops/pulls/225

# Exploring the Documentation
|
|
|
|
> **Audiences:** All (Owner, AI, Reader, Contributor, Replicator)
|
|
|
|
This guide explains how the BlumeOps documentation is organized and how to find what you need.
|
|
|
|
## Documentation Structure
|
|
|
|
The docs follow the [Diataxis](https://diataxis.fr/) framework:
|
|
|
|
| Section | Purpose | When to Use |
|
|
|---------|---------|-------------|
|
|
| **[[tutorials|Tutorials]]** | Learning-oriented | "I'm new and want to understand" |
|
|
| **[[reference|Reference]]** | Information-oriented | "I need specific technical details" |
|
|
| **[[how-to|How-to]]** | Task-oriented | "I need to do X" |
|
|
| **[[plans|Plans]]** | Future work | "What's planned next?" |
|
|
| **[[explanation|Explanation]]** | Understanding-oriented | "I want to understand why" |
|
|
|
|
## Quick Paths by Audience
|
|
|
|
### For Erich (Owner)
|
|
|
|
You probably want quick access to operational details:
|
|
- [[how-to]] guides for common operations (deploy, troubleshoot, update ACLs)
|
|
- [[plans]] captures migration and transition plans for future execution
|
|
- [[reference]] has service URLs, commands, and config locations
|
|
- [[ai-assistance-guide]] explains how to work effectively with Claude
|
|
- Run `mise run ai-docs` to prime AI context with key documentation
|
|
|
|
### For Claude/AI Agents
|
|
|
|
Context for effective assistance:
|
|
- Read [[ai-assistance-guide]] for operational conventions
|
|
- [[plans]] has migration plans designed for AI-executed sessions
|
|
- [[reference]] has the technical specifics you'll need
|
|
- The repo's `CLAUDE.md` has critical rules (especially the kubectl context requirement)
|
|
|
|
### For External Readers
|
|
|
|
Understanding what this is:
|
|
- [[explanation]] covers the "why" behind design decisions
|
|
- [[reference]] shows what's actually running
|
|
- Browse service pages to see specific implementations
|
|
|
|
### For Contributors
|
|
|
|
Getting started with changes:
|
|
- [[contributing]] walks through the workflow
|
|
- [[how-to]] guides for specific tasks (deploy services, add roles)
|
|
- [[reference]] tells you where things live
|
|
|
|
### For Replicators
|
|
|
|
Replicators are people who want to build their own similar homelab GitOps setup, using BlumeOps as inspiration.
|
|
|
|
- [[replicating-blumeops]] provides the overview, with linked tutorials that go deep on individual components
|
|
- [[explanation]] covers architecture and design rationale
|
|
- Reference pages show specific configuration choices
|
|
|
|
## Using Wiki Links
|
|
|
|
Documentation uses `[[wiki-links]]` for cross-references:
|
|
- `[[service-name]]` links to a reference page
|
|
- `[[page|Display Text]]` customizes the link text
|
|
|
|
When reading on the web (docs.eblu.me), these render as clickable links. The backlinks panel shows what references each page.
|
|
|
|
Pre-commit hooks automatically validate that all wiki-links point to existing files and that link targets are unambiguous.
|
|
|
|
## AI Context Priming
|
|
|
|
The `ai-docs` mise task concatenates key documentation files for AI context:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
mise run ai-docs -- --style=header --color=never --decorations=always
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This outputs the AI assistance guide, reference index, how-to index, architecture overview, and tutorials index - providing Claude with essential context for BlumeOps operations.
