Line 12: "You should use the API key"
Suggestion: Use "MUST" or "SHOULD" to define requirement level.

Humans rely on intuition. Agents rely on precision. When your documentation is vague, your agents hallucinate, loop, and fail.
Doclint treats your prose like code.
AmbiguousAgent Thought Process
> "probably use the API key" is ambiguous.
> Searching for "settings page"... not found.
> Attempting to guess auth header format...
> Error: 401 Unauthorized.
> Retrying with random variations...
Machine-ReadableAgent Thought Process
> Requirement identified: MUST use API Key.
> Source identified: Settings > API.
> Failure protocol: Exponential backoff.
> Executing deterministic auth flow...
> Success.
We don't just check spelling. We enforce structural and semantic integrity.
Condense your docs so they are cogent, elegant, and readable to both humans and machines. Eliminate ambiguity that confuses agents.
Optimize for the context window. We flag fluff, marketing speak, and redundant information that wastes tokens.
Simulate a developer following your guides step-by-step. We detect dead ends, circular references, and missing prerequisites before your users do.
Keep docs in sync with code. We flag outdated parameters, deprecated endpoints, and stale examples so you never have a README_OLD.md again.
Eliminate duplication. We identify conflicting information across your knowledge base and enforce a single, canonical source of truth.
Identify gaps in your documentation. We scan your codebase for exported features and propose missing sections that are critical for adoption.
See where your team's agents get stuck. We analyze context retrieval patterns to identify confusing sections and streamline the path to understanding.
Catch documentation issues before they merge. Our bot comments directly on PRs with specific, actionable suggestions for improvement.
Enforce your team's specific style guide. Define custom linter rules to ensure every doc matches your organization's unique voice and standards.
Track your documentation health over time. Visualize improvements in semantic density, coverage, and readability with detailed dashboards.
Enforce strict requirement levels. Ensure "MUST", "SHOULD", and "MAY" are used correctly to eliminate ambiguity in your specifications.
Broken link detection, structural consistency checks, code snippet validation, and more. We handle the details so you can focus on the content.
We're onboarding teams gradually. Contact us to get early access to the CLI and VS Code extension.
