Option 5: Unified Multi-Source Scraping (NEW - v2.0.0)
The Problem: Documentation and code often drift apart. Docs might be outdated, missing features that exist in code, or documenting features that were removed.
The Solution: Combine documentation + GitHub + PDF into one unified skill that shows BOTH what's documented AND what actually exists, with clear warnings about discrepancies.
# Create unified config (mix documentation + GitHub)
cat > configs/myframework_unified.json << 'EOF'
{
"name": "myframework",
"description": "Complete framework knowledge from docs + code",
"merge_mode": "rule-based",
"sources": [
{
"type": "documentation",
"base_url": "https://docs.myframework.com/",
"extract_api": true,
"max_pages": 200
},
{
"type": "github",
"repo": "owner/myframework",
"include_code": true,
"code_analysis_depth": "surface"
}
]
}
EOF
# Run unified scraper
python3 cli/unified_scraper.py --config configs/myframework_unified.json
# Upload output/myframework.zip to Claude - Done!
Time: ~30-45 minutes | Quality: Production-ready with conflict detection | Cost: Free
What Makes It Special:
✅ Conflict Detection - Automatically finds 4 types of discrepancies:
- 🔴 Missing in code (high): Documented but not implemented
- 🟡 Missing in docs (medium): Implemented but not documented
- ⚠️ Signature mismatch: Different parameters/types
- ℹ️ Description mismatch: Different explanations
✅ Transparent Reporting - Shows both versions side-by-side:
#### `move_local_x(delta: float)`
⚠️ **Conflict**: Documentation signature differs from implementation
**Documentation says:**
def move_local_x(delta: float)
**Code implementation:**
```python
def move_local_x(delta: float, snap: bool = False) -> None
✅ **Advantages:**
- **Identifies documentation gaps** - Find outdated or missing docs automatically
- **Catches code changes** - Know when APIs change without docs being updated
- **Single source of truth** - One skill showing intent (docs) AND reality (code)
- **Actionable insights** - Get suggestions for fixing each conflict
- **Development aid** - See what's actually in the codebase vs what's documented
**Example Unified Configs:**
- `configs/react_unified.json` - React docs + GitHub repo
- `configs/django_unified.json` - Django docs + GitHub repo
- `configs/fastapi_unified.json` - FastAPI docs + GitHub repo
**Full Guide:** See [docs/UNIFIED_SCRAPING.md](docs/UNIFIED_SCRAPING.md) for complete documentation.

- GDScript (func, var, extends)
- C++ (#include, int main)
- And more...
5. Skip Scraping
# Scrape once
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/react.json
# Later, just rebuild (instant)
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/react.json --skip-scrape
6. Async Mode for Faster Scraping (2-3x Speed!)
# Enable async mode with 8 workers (recommended for large docs)
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/react.json --async --workers 8
# Small docs (~100-500 pages)
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/mydocs.json --async --workers 4
# Large docs (2000+ pages) with no rate limiting
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/largedocs.json --async --workers 8 --no-rate-limit
Performance Comparison:
- Sync mode (threads): ~18 pages/sec, 120 MB memory
- Async mode: ~55 pages/sec, 40 MB memory
- Result: 3x faster, 66% less memory!
When to use:
- ✅ Large documentation (500+ pages)
- ✅ Network latency is high
- ✅ Memory is constrained
- ❌ Small docs (< 100 pages) - overhead not worth it
See full guide: ASYNC_SUPPORT.md
7. AI-Powered SKILL.md Enhancement
# Option 1: During scraping (API-based, requires API key)
pip3 install anthropic
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-...
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/react.json --enhance
# Option 2: During scraping (LOCAL, no API key - uses Claude Code Max)

# - godot-physics.json (6K pages)
# - godot-shaders.json (11K pages)
# 3. Scrape all in parallel (4-8 hours instead of 20-40!)
for config in configs/godot-*.json; do
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config $config &
done
wait
# 4. Generate intelligent router/hub skill
python3 cli/generate_router.py configs/godot-*.json
# 5. Package all skills
python3 cli/package_multi.py output/godot*/
# 6. Upload all .zip files to Claude
# Users just ask questions naturally!
# Router automatically directs to the right sub-skill!
Split Strategies:

{
"name": "godot",
"max_pages": 40000,
"split_strategy": "router",
"split_config": {
"target_pages_per_skill": 5000,
"create_router": true,
"split_by_categories": ["scripting", "2d", "3d", "physics"]
}
}
Full Guide: Large Documentation Guide
8. Checkpoint/Resume for Long Scrapes
Never lose progress on long-running scrapes:
# Enable in config
{
"checkpoint": {
"enabled": true,
"interval": 1000 // Save every 1000 pages
}
}
# If scrape is interrupted (Ctrl+C or crash)
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/godot.json --resume
# Resume from last checkpoint
✅ Resuming from checkpoint (12,450 pages scraped)
⏭️ Skipping 12,450 already-scraped pages
🔄 Continuing from where we left off...
# Start fresh (clear checkpoint)
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/godot.json --fresh
Benefits:
- ✅ Auto-saves every 1000 pages (configurable)
- ✅ Saves on interruption (Ctrl+C)
- ✅ Resume with
--resumeflag - ✅ Never lose hours of scraping progress
🎯 Complete Workflows
First Time (With Scraping + Enhancement)
# 1. Scrape + Build + AI Enhancement (LOCAL, no API key)
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/godot.json --enhance-local
# 2. Wait for new terminal to close (enhancement completes)
# Check the enhanced SKILL.md:
cat output/godot/SKILL.md
# 3. Package
python3 cli/package_skill.py output/godot/
# 4. Done! You have godot.zip with excellent SKILL.md
Time: 20-40 minutes (scraping) + 60 seconds (enhancement) = ~21-41 minutes
Using Existing Data (Fast!)
# 1. Use cached data + Local Enhancement
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/godot.json --skip-scrape
python3 cli/enhance_skill_local.py output/godot/
# 2. Package
python3 cli/package_skill.py output/godot/
# 3. Done!
Time: 1-3 minutes (build) + 60 seconds (enhancement) = ~2-4 minutes total
Without Enhancement (Basic)
# 1. Scrape + Build (no enhancement)
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/godot.json
# 2. Package
python3 cli/package_skill.py output/godot/
# 3. Done! (SKILL.md will be basic template)
Time: 20-40 minutes Note: SKILL.md will be generic - enhancement strongly recommended!

💡 Tips
1. Test Small First
Edit max_pages in config to test:
{
"max_pages": 20 // Test with just 20 pages
}
2. Reuse Scraped Data
# Scrape once
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/react.json
# Rebuild multiple times (instant)
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/react.json --skip-scrape
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/react.json --skip-scrape
3. Finding Selectors
# Test in Python
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import requests
url = "https://docs.example.com/page"
soup = BeautifulSoup(requests.get(url).content, 'html.parser')
# Try different selectors
print(soup.select_one('article'))
print(soup.select_one('main'))
print(soup.select_one('div[role="main"]'))
4. Check Output Quality
# After building, check:
cat output/godot/SKILL.md # Should have real examples
cat output/godot/references/index.md # Categories
🐛 Troubleshooting
No Content Extracted?
- Check your
main_contentselector - Try:
article,main,div[role="main"]
Data Exists But Won't Use It?
# Force re-scrape
rm -rf output/myframework_data/
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/myframework.json
Categories Not Good?
Edit the config categories section with better keywords.
Want to Update Docs?
# Delete old data
rm -rf output/godot_data/
# Re-scrape
python3 cli/doc_scraper.py --config configs/godot.json
