Litho
Architecture docs drafted from the code itself: a Rust CLI whose LLM agents write a C4-style Markdown wiki with Mermaid diagrams, local Ollama included.
Mimik
Document a web procedure without taking a single screenshot by hand: this extension turns each click into an annotated step and keeps guides in the browser.
Archify
Architecture, sequence or ERD diagrams written by a coding agent as validated JSON, then shipped as a single HTML file. Needs Node 18 plus Chrome or Edge.
Comment and Let AI Do the Rest
Describing a spot in sentences, quoting a passage to remove doubt: a prompt can ask, but it can't point. How notabene turns page comments into agent tasks.
notabene
Review Markdown docs by commenting on the rendered page, then have an AI agent apply each note to the source and journal it, with git diffs to approve. No SaaS.
Starlight
Turn Markdown and MDX into a static docs site with Pagefind search, translations and RTL built in. An Astro theme still in beta (0.42) that needs Astro 7.2.10.
Docusaurus
Turns Markdown and MDX docs into a static React site with versioning, translations and a blog. Needs Node.js 20; official search runs on Algolia DocSearch.
Mermaid
Write diagrams as text that lives in Git with the code: an MIT JavaScript library draws flowcharts, sequences and Gantt charts as SVG, and GitHub renders them.
Storybook
Build, document and test UI components outside the app, one story per state: an MIT-licensed frontend workshop for React, Vue, Angular, Svelte and more.
Outline
Team wiki with live co-editing and nested documents. Source-available under BSL 1.1, and sign-in requires Google, Slack, Microsoft, Discord or an OIDC provider.
AI and Code: What If the Real Gain Isn't Where You Think?
AI agents speed up writing code, which was never the bottleneck. Their real payoff is forcing teams to write down specs, documentation and architecture choices.
BookStack
Team documentation filed into shelves, books, chapters and pages: an MIT-licensed PHP wiki you host yourself on MySQL or MariaDB, with no paid edition.
