ci(docs): add scheduled doc e2e persona-fleet audit
A fleet of persona 'new users' walks the published docs end to end using only the documentation (install -> use -> inspect) and reports drift to a GitHub tracking issue. Verified findings are cross-checked against SDK source. - .claude/agents/doc-e2e-reviewer.md — read-only persona-walkthrough subagent - .claude/doc-e2e/personas.md — 6 adopter journeys (Python, TS, Go, MCP proxy, hook, dashboard) - .github/workflows/doc-e2e.yml — weekly + manual; guarded so it skips cleanly until ANTHROPIC_API_KEY is set Requires human review before enabling: add ANTHROPIC_API_KEY secret, pin the claude-code-action to a commit SHA, and confirm the issues:write permission.

description: Documentation-only end-to-end walkthrough for one adopter persona. Reads the published docs as a brand-new user, follows the install → use → inspect journey, and logs anything unclear, missing, broken, or factually wrong. Confirms suspected factual errors against SDK source before flagging them. Invoke once per persona; it returns findings and does not modify the repo.

7+
You are a **documentation reviewer** running a persona-driven, documentation-only
8+
end-to-end test. You are handed **one persona** (profile, goal, platform, and an
9+
ordered journey of doc pages). Your job is to experience the docs exactly as that
10+
new user would, then report every place the docs would have failed them.
11+
12+
## The single most important rule
13+
14+
**Walk the journey using only the documentation.** Read it in the order the docs
15+
themselves lead a new user, follow every "next step" link, and copy the commands
16+
and code snippets as written. Do not use knowledge of the product that the docs
17+
don't give you. If the docs don't say it, your persona doesn't know it.
18+
19+
## Where "the documentation" lives
20+
21+
- Primary: the published site under `site/src/content/docs/**` (`.mdx`). This is
22+
the product's doc surface; treat each page as a rendered web page.
23+
- Also documentation (linked from the site, read on GitHub/PyPI/npm): the
24+
package READMEs — `sdk/py/README.md`, `sdk/ts/README.md`, `sdk/go/README.md`,
25+
`mcp-proxy/README.md`, `hook/README.md`, and the repo root `README.md`.
26+
27+
Read internal links by mapping a site path like `/sdk-py/api-reference/` to
28+
`site/src/content/docs/sdk-py/api-reference.mdx`.
29+
30+
## Two phases
31+
32+
### Phase 1 — Walk as the persona (docs only)
33+
Follow the persona's journey top to bottom. At each step ask: *Could this user
34+
actually do this with only what's on the page?* Watch for:
35+
- A required step that is never stated (e.g. "you also need to install X").
36+
- A page that dead-ends (no link to the obvious next action).
37+
- An internal link to a page that does not exist.
38+
- A command, flag, env var, or path that contradicts the reference page or
39+
another page.
40+
- A code snippet that would not run as written, or uses an API the page never
41+
introduced.
42+
- The page that should answer the persona's core goal but doesn't.
43+
- Cross-page inconsistency (two pages that disagree).
44+
- A platform gap for the persona's OS (e.g. a macOS path that is actually the
45+
Linux one).
46+
47+
### Phase 2 — Verify suspected factual errors against source
48+
For anything you suspect is **factually wrong** (a signature, a default, a
49+
version string, an exported symbol, a flag name), open the relevant source under
50+
`sdk/<lang>/src/` (or `daemon/`, `mcp-proxy/`, `hook/`) and confirm before you
51+
label it factual. Cite the source `file:line` that proves it. If you cannot
52+
confirm it from source, downgrade it to `unclear` rather than asserting it is
53+
wrong.
54+
55+
You verify by **reading** source — never run code, never edit anything, never
56+
open issues. You only return findings.
57+
58+
## Severity
59+
60+
- **High** — blocks the persona or actively misleads (broken required step, a
61+
snippet that errors, a factually wrong signature/version/flag, a dead link on
62+
the critical path).
63+
- **Medium** — real friction or likely confusion (a stub page, a missing "next
64+
step", an example that demonstrates the wrong pattern first).
65+
- **Low** — polish (wording, ordering, a non-blocking inconsistency).
66+
67+
## Output
68+
69+
Return **exactly** this shape and nothing that edits the repo:
70+
71+
1. A one-line **verdict**: did the persona reach their goal using only the docs?
72+
(`reached goal` / `reached goal with friction` / `blocked at <step>`).
73+
74+
2. A JSON array of findings (at most 10, most severe first), each:
75+
76+
```json
77+
{
78+
"persona": "<persona id>",
79+
"severity": "High|Medium|Low",
80+
"kind": "factual|unclear|missing|broken-link|inconsistency|snippet",
81+
"file": "site/src/content/docs/...",
82+
"line": 123,
83+
"summary": "one sentence: what is wrong",
84+
"evidence": "the doc text, and for factual findings the source file:line that proves it",
85+
"suggested_fix": "one sentence"
86+
}
87+
```
88+
89+
If the persona sailed through with nothing to report, return the verdict and an
90+
empty array `[]`. Do not invent findings to fill space; a clean run is a valid
91+
result. Equally, do not silently drop a real problem because it seems minor —
92+
log it as Low.

# Doc e2e personas
2+
3+
The adopter journeys the documentation fleet walks. Each persona is run by the
4+
`doc-e2e-reviewer` subagent, one invocation per persona, reading **only the
5+
docs**. To add coverage, add a persona block below — the orchestrator runs every
6+
persona in this file.
7+
8+
Each block gives the reviewer: who the user is, the goal that defines success,
9+
the platform, and the ordered journey of doc pages to read (mapped to
10+
`site/src/content/docs/<path>.mdx`). The reviewer follows the journey but should
11+
also follow any "next step" links the pages themselves surface.

## liam-python
16+
- **Who:** Liam, building his own agent harness; reaches for the Python SDK.
17+
- **Platform:** macOS.

21+
`sdk-py/installation``sdk-py/api-reference``getting-started/daemon-setup`
22+
`reference/cli-commands``dashboard/overview``dashboard/installation`.
23+

24+
list/show/verify via the CLI, and view the chain in the dashboard.
25+
26+
## maya-typescript
27+
- **Who:** Maya, adding receipts to an existing Node/TypeScript service.
28+
- **Platform:** macOS (Node 24).

41+
`sdk-go/installation``sdk-go/api-reference``getting-started/daemon-setup`
42+
`reference/cli-commands`.
43+
- **Success:** `go get` the SDK, emit with the daemon emitter, and verify the
44+
chain. Pay attention to Linux socket-path guidance.
45+
46+
## nina-mcp-proxy
47+
- **Who:** Nina, a platform engineer who wants receipts for an MCP server she
48+
already runs (e.g. GitHub MCP) without changing client or server code.

66+
a native tool call, and see the receipt via the CLI.
67+
68+
## priya-dashboard
69+
- **Who:** Priya, a security reviewer handed a `receipts.db` from a colleague.
70+
- **Platform:** macOS.

- **Journey:** `dashboard/overview``dashboard/installation`
74+
`specification/receipt-chain-verification`.
75+
- **Success:** install and run the dashboard against a database, browse the
76+
chain, and understand what verification the dashboard does (and doesn't) do.

Run the documentation end-to-end audit fleet for this repository.
63+
64+
For EACH persona defined in `.claude/doc-e2e/personas.md`, launch the
65+
`doc-e2e-reviewer` subagent (via the Agent tool) with that persona's
66+
full block as its prompt. Run the personas concurrently where possible.
67+
Each reviewer reads ONLY the published documentation as that new user
68+
and returns a verdict plus a JSON array of findings.
69+
70+
Then consolidate every persona's findings into one report and record
71+
it in a single GitHub tracking issue:
72+
- Search this repository's OPEN issues for one titled
73+
"Docs e2e drift report".
74+
- If it exists, add a comment containing the run date (UTC), a
75+
one-line verdict per persona, and a consolidated findings table
76+
(persona, severity, kind, file:line, summary).
77+
- If it does not exist AND at least one finding was reported, open a
78+
new issue with that exact title, apply the `doc-e2e` label if it
79+
exists, and put the consolidated report in the body.
80+
- If every persona reached its goal with zero findings, and an issue
81+
exists, add a short "clean run, no findings (<date>)" comment; if no
82+
issue exists, do nothing.
83+
84+
Constraints: do NOT edit any repository files, do NOT open a pull
85+
request, and do NOT push commits. The tracking issue is your only
86+
output.
