+# Devguide documentation helper
+
+Use this skill when working on the CPython Developer Guide repository, especially when editing or reviewing documentation files in `.rst` format.
+
+## Scope
+
+This repository documents contributor workflows, project policies, team processes, and technical guidance. The goal is to keep the documentation clear, correct, and easy to navigate for contributors.
+
+## Working approach
+
+1. Read the target page and any nearby pages needed for context, such as indexes, related sections, or neighboring docs.
+2. Keep the change focused on the user-visible issue or requested improvement.
+3. Preserve the repository's documentation voice: precise, technical, and contributor-focused.
+4. Follow the existing Sphinx reStructuredText conventions used in this repo, including heading hierarchy, lists, and directive syntax.
+5. Verify that any new page, section, or link is consistent with the surrounding navigation and index structure.
+
+## Repo conventions
+
+- Most source files use `.rst` and should follow the project's heading and indentation conventions.
+- Prefer clear prose that explains what contributors should do, why it matters, and any prerequisites.
+- Maintain consistency with existing terminology, especially for CPython-specific terminology and contributor workflow language.
+- Use relative links and references carefully so cross-references stay valid and readable.
+- Avoid unrelated cleanup or broad reformatting in the same change.
+
+## Validation
+
+When practical, run the smallest relevant documentation validation command, for example:
+
+- `make html`
+- `python -m sphinx -b html . _build/html`
+
+If a validation step is not available or is outside the scope of the request, clearly state that the content was not build-validated.
+
+## Avoid
+
+- Do not invent guidance or project claims that are not supported by the repo.
+- Do not break toctrees, section references, or generated docs.
+- Do not add unrelated formatting churn or autofixes.
+- Do not leave a change without checking the surrounding document structure.
+
+## Output expectations
+
+When editing documentation, summarize:
+
+- what changed,
+- where the change was made,
+- any validation or build checks that were run,
+- and any follow-up caveats if the docs were not fully rebuilt.
