Diataxis Documentation Framework

Audit, classify, validate, and scaffold documentation using the Diataxis framework.

Quick Start

# Classify individual files
uv run scripts/diataxis_classify.py docs/*.md

# Audit a docs directory for coverage
uv run scripts/diataxis_audit.py --dir docs

# Validate quadrant purity
uv run scripts/diataxis_validate.py --dir docs

# Scaffold a new Diataxis structure
uv run scripts/diataxis_scaffold.py --dry-run
uv run scripts/diataxis_scaffold.py

Capabilities

ScriptPurposeKey Flags
diataxis_classify.pyClassify files into quadrants--json, --verbose, --no-content
diataxis_audit.pyCoverage report with quality score--dir, --json, --min-coverage
diataxis_validate.pyLint for quadrant purity (DX001-DX010)--dir, --file, --strict, --json
diataxis_scaffold.pyGenerate folder structure--layout folders|flat, --init-config, --dry-run

The Four Quadrants

Classification Algorithm

Multi-signal weighted scoring (title 30%, headings 25%, content 25%, structure 20%). Documents scoring highly for 2+ quadrants are flagged as "collapsed" with split suggestions.

Validation Rules

IDRuleSeverity
DX001Tutorial contains reference tableswarning
DX002How-to has long conceptual preamblewarning
DX003Reference contains step-by-step instructionswarning
DX004Explanation contains execution commandswarning
DX005No clear quadrant signalinfo
DX006Collapsed document (mixed quadrants)warning
DX007Tutorial missing prerequisitesinfo
DX008Tutorial missing learning objectivesinfo
DX009How-to missing problem statementinfo
DX010Reference missing tablesinfo

Config File (.diataxis-config.json)

Optional per-project override:

{
  "version": 1,
  "root": "docs",
  "layout": "folders",
  "ignore": ["node_modules", ".git", "adr", "rfcs", "*.pdf"],
  "custom_signals": {}
}

Create with uv run scripts/diataxis_scaffold.py --init-config.

Common Issues

IssueFix
uv not foundcurl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh or run with python3 scripts/diataxis_classify.py
Low confidence on all filesFiles may lack quadrant-specific keywords; use --verbose to inspect scores
Too many collapsed warningsSome docs legitimately mix quadrants; consider splitting or accepting
