Bagisto Documentation
Bagisto's documentation lives in separate repositories from the codebase, one per audience. They are all VitePress sites built the same way, so the mechanics in this skill apply to every one of them — the developer documentation, the merchant user guide, and any guide added later.
Step 1: decide who the reader is
Everything else follows from this, so settle it before writing a line. Judge by audience, not by which repository you happen to have open — a repository can hold a page aimed at either reader, and getting this wrong produces a page that is technically accurate and useless to whoever arrives.
| Ask | If yes | Load |
|---|---|---|
| Will the reader write code against Bagisto — a package, a theme, an integration, an API client? | Developer documentation | developer-docs.md |
| Will the reader operate a store from the admin panel, without touching code? | User guide | user-guide.md |
If a page seems to need both, it is two pages. A merchant reading about a class name skips it; a developer reading a click path stops trusting the page. Split by audience and link across.
When a new documentation repository appears — a marketplace guide, a self-hosting guide — it is one of these two readers under a new name. Run the same test and use the same reference.
Step 2: find the repository, do not guess it
Each site is a separate repository, not a folder inside the Bagisto app, so locate it before editing anything:
find . ~ -maxdepth 6 -type d -path '*/src' -path '*doc*' 2>/dev/null | headIf it is not cloned, ask the user for the path or to clone it. Never invent a location and never write a page into the Bagisto app by mistake — the app has no src/ docs tree, so a page created there is silently lost.
Read the neighbours before writing
Open two or three existing pages in the section you are adding to and match their depth, heading rhythm and tone. A page that reads differently from its neighbours is a defect even when every fact in it is right.
Check for duplication at the same time: if the topic is already half-covered somewhere, extend that page or cross-link to it rather than forking a second source of truth. Two pages that partly answer the same question age into two pages that contradict each other.
Reference files
| File | Load when |
|---|---|
| developer-docs.md | Writing for a reader who writes code — voice, structure, code samples |
| user-guide.md | Writing for a reader who runs a store — voice, page shape, steps |
| screenshots.md | A page needs an image — capture, clean setup, naming |
| publishing.md | Adding, moving or deleting a page — sidebar, redirects, verification |
| site-structure.md | Finding your way round a docs repository — layout, commands, per-site differences |
| common-mistakes.md | Auditing a finished change |
Every site is a VitePress site: pages under src/, the sidebar in .vitepress/config.mts, legacy URLs in .vitepress/_redirects.ts. Preview with npm run docs:dev; npm run docs:build is the gate. The sites differ in their components and redirect prefixes, so learn the one you are in — site-structure.md.
Non-negotiables
- Write for one reader. The audience decided in step 1 governs vocabulary,
what you explain and what you assume. This is the rule that makes a docs page good or useless.
- A published URL never breaks. Every way a page's URL can change — renaming
the file, moving it to another section, changing its slug, splitting it in two, deleting it — needs an entry in .vitepress/_redirects.ts pointing the old URL at the content's new home, and every existing redirect that aimed at the old URL repointed. Nobody updates their links for you. See publishing.md.
- Never delete a page that is holding a URL open unless a redirect covers
that URL first. Some pages exist only to keep a legacy path resolving; they look like clutter and are load-bearing.
- The sidebar is the only navigation. A page absent from the
sidebararray
in .vitepress/config.mts is reachable only by typing its URL. Add the entry in the same change as the page.
- Every filename is kebab-case. Lowercase, hyphen-separated, no spaces, no
camelCase, no underscores — for pages and images alike. Older files predate the rule; match the rule, not the neighbours, and do not rename unrelated files while you are there.
- Inspect the implementation before the existing page. The page you are
updating may be describing a feature that has since moved, been renamed or been removed. Start from the code, the config files, the language files and the running admin; treat the old prose as a hypothesis, not a source.
- Verify claims against the codebase, not memory. A confidently wrong
sentence is worse than no page, because it is believed. Every command, path, config key, class, method, route, label and behaviour on a page has to come from a file read or a command run in this session. Open the file, run the command, check the string.
- Code samples pass Pint. A PHP sample is formatted exactly as the
project's pint.json (the laravel preset) formats it — single spaces around =>, trailing commas, sorted imports, no aligned columns — and reads like production Bagisto code. Run Pint on extracted samples rather than judging by eye; the procedure is in developer-docs.md.
- Sequential actions are numbered steps. Wherever a reader must do several
things in order, write a numbered list with one action per step under a heading that names the outcome. A sentence that chains "go to X, click Y, enter Z and save" is a defect on the merchant side and a smell on the developer side. Bullets are for options, properties and prerequisites, where order does not matter.
- One documentation set across releases. No per-version page trees, no
"2.5 beta" labels, and no "current development version" wording: the current release is called Bagisto 2.5. Name a release only where behaviour or availability differs, in the same paragraph as the current behaviour, so the page is still right after the next release. See the Versions section in developer-docs.md.
- AI terminology is earned by the implementation. "Generative AI" is for
features that produce content — pages and headings say "Generative AI (Magic AI)", and "Magic AI" alone is kept for the admin's own labels and the package. "Agentic AI" is for features where an agent acts through tools (WebMCP, coding agents using the skills). Never claim autonomy the code does not have: Magic AI applies nothing without an admin. See the AI sections of both reference files.
- The user guide follows the merchant's journey, and Configure follows the
admin's own Configuration screen; the marketplace guide has three readers; configuration pages start from the config('core') tree, not the old pages. Each has its section in user-guide.md. The developer documentation's navigation is not reorganised unless the user asks.
- Finish with an independent audit. After editing, verify the result as a
reviewer who did not write it: every claim against the code, every sample through Pint, every link and image resolved, the sidebar and llms.txt consistent, then the build, then common-mistakes.md. A change that has only been written has not been checked.
- `llms.txt` and `llms-full.txt` are written by hand. Nothing generates
them. Adding, moving or deleting a page means editing them too.
- The build is the gate.
npm run docs:buildreports each redirect it
writes. A change that has not been built has not been checked.
REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use bagisto-change-verification before calling any change done.
