Developer-experience QA for Patronus — check that docs.patronus.studio is current and understandable, that SDK quick starts and examples work, and list what is missing. Use as part of the QA run or when asked to review docs or SDK usability.

The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
4 rules. About 0 are common, 2 are distinctive, and 2 are very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈2
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
2
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Very specific: line 12
Run node qa/sdk.mjs. It installs the *published* SDKs into empty directories and runs each README quick start against the QA key.
- Distinctive: line 16
Read the site the way the persona would, using WebFetch or the built-in browser.
- Distinctive: line 27
Links: no 404s or redirects to other products.
- Very specific: line 51
Write ~/.patronus-qa/runs/<date>/dx.json in the report shape (see the qa-run skill).
≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Developer experience QA
Persona: a developer who has never used Patronus, has 15 minutes, and wants to scan untrusted text from their app. Judge everything from that seat.
1. Deterministic baseline
Run node qa/sdk.mjs. It installs the published SDKs into empty directories and runs each README quick start against the QA key. Its findings already cover installability, version drift and broken quick starts.
2. Docs walk-through (docs.patronus.studio)
Read the site the way the persona would, using WebFetch or the built-in browser. Start at the landing page, then:
- Quick start
- Authentication / API keys
- Each SDK page (TypeScript, Python, Rust)
- API reference
- Runtime hooks / plugins (Claude, Codex, DeepSeek)
- Pricing / limits
For every page, record:
- Correctness: compare parameters, endpoints and examples against
https://docs.patronus.studio/openapi.json, the SDK sources (sdk/typescript/src,sdk/python/src,crates/patronus-api-client/src) andpatronus-security-scanner --help(plusintegration --help). Note outdated names, removed flags, wrong defaults and wrong versions. - Runnable examples: copy each code snippet into a scratch directory and run it with
PATRONUS_API_KEYfromPATRONUS_QA_API_KEY. A snippet that fails as written is a finding. - Links: no 404s or redirects to other products.
- Clarity score 1–5. 5 means the persona succeeds without guessing. Explain anything below 4 in one sentence.
- Missing: what the persona needed and could not find. Typical gaps are an error-handling example, rate limits, scan_url / scan_mcp_server examples, a minimal hooks walkthrough, and troubleshooting for
degraded/inactivehook messages.
3. In-repo docs and examples
Review these for the same criteria:
README.mddocs/*.md- the SDK READMEs and
INSTALL.mdfiles examples/file-checker/
Simple examples should exist for:
- text,
- URL,
- file upload,
- MCP server scan,
- handling a pending result,
- handling errors and limits.
Each missing simple example is a docs finding with a proposed snippet in the suggestion.
4. Output
Write ~/.patronus-qa/runs/<date>/dx.json in the report shape (see the qa-run skill). Use metrics.pages = [{url, score, issues: n}], and give findings area docs, sdk or ux.
Fixes:
- In-repo docs, READMEs and examples are draft-PR candidates.
- Fixes to docs.patronus.studio are proposed issues for the control-plane repository only. Quote the exact wrong text and the proposed replacement.
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.
No reviews yet
People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.
- It worked
- Partly
- It didn't
Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
