agentic-docs: add incremental independent verification and other optimizations - #764
Conversation
Optimzing to reduce tokens and making the doc generation loop more efficient - Cache immutable claims and evidence between review passes. - Reverify only changed or dependent claims. - Compact verified evidence while retaining failures. - Support host-independent authoritative sources. - Preserve links to repository documentation used as input. - Keep `.work` review caches out of Git. - Remove Chai Bot MCP configuration (one of the goals it to run inside chai bot)

Document the supported --skip-generate option.
plugins/agentic-docs/skills/generate-docs/SKILL.md accepts both --review and --skip-generate for review-only runs, but this README lists only --review. Add --skip-generate so the public command reference matches the skill contract.

Validate custom cache paths before creation. --cache-dir DIR sets CACHE_DIR, and reports are written below it. The ignore check covers only /.work/, not a custom repository-local path. Such a path can remain visible to Git and may enter a broader review scope. Reject repository-local custom paths, or canonicalize DIR and verify its scope and Git-ignore coverage before creating it.
