Summary

This PR adds a Claude Code skill that guides technical writers through creating Auth0 QuickStart guides based on recent user research findings.

Changes included:

New QuickStart writing skill (.claude/skills/writing-quickstarts/SKILL.md)

  • Addresses known usability patterns from user research
  • Provides structured guidance for Setup, Integration, and Verification phases
  • Includes best practices for navigation, code examples, and external service integrations

Key usability improvements addressed:

User research has identified several common pain points in QuickStart documentation. This skill provides guidance to address:

  • Dashboard navigation clarity: Users struggle with multiple Settings pages in the Auth0 Dashboard. The skill ensures explicit guidance to differentiate between Application Settings, Tenant Settings, and API Settings.

  • Setup flow distinction: Users treat setup steps as part of the main workflow, not separate preparation. The skill ensures the setup phase receives the same detail level as the integration phase.

  • External service complexity: Third-party configurations involve platform switching and unfamiliar interfaces. The skill provides a clear two-part structure for external service integrations.

  • Resource relationships: Similar Auth0 resources need explicit differentiation. The skill includes patterns for clarifying complex relationships between resources.

  • Missing context: Users need to understand why each step matters, not just how to complete it. The skill emphasizes purpose statements for each configuration step.

Usage

The skill is invoked by Claude Code when:

  • Writing new QuickStarts
  • Improving existing integration guides
  • Clarifying navigation instructions
  • Structuring prerequisites
  • Simplifying external service setup
