I spent part of last week, and the weekend, in Claude (Fable) on a documentation project... maybe a waste to use Fable, but been a little obsessed with trying to get the technical details right. I know, from personal history, more than some of the available info easily found on the subject. I let a lot of it just go, and swing for the fences, but in the end, did hand review all the output at each stem.
In my specific case, implementing modern documentation for Remote Imaging Protocol (and old graphics protocol for terminal/bbs usage), and in particular trying to gather what exists of the later version released. The company itself folded, and there wasn't a lot of broad use of the later versions, and only partial information was ever released as a documentation. Claude was able to interrogate the apps, and some available open source, in progress work, and establish a lot of things.
I've still got to direct some edits... I guided a re-flow of the order the documentation was written in, particularly to be consistent between the versions... but it obsessively added verbose summaries to every page/file. All markdown, meant to build a website from, and eventually some compatibility tests, guidelines and a green/open implementation.
