Skill instructions
Context Squad documentation follows the Microsoft Style Guide with Squad-specific conventions. Consistency across docs builds trust and improves discoverability. Patterns Microsoft Style Guide Rules - Sentence-case headings: "Getting started" not "Getting Started" - Active voice: "Run the command" not "The command should be run" - Second person: "You can configure..." not "Users can configure..." - Present tense: "The system routes..." not "The system will route..." - No ampersands in prose: "and" not "&" (except in code, brand names, or UI elements) Squad Formatting Patterns - Scannability first: Paragraphs for narrative (3-4 sentences max), bullets for scannable lists, tables for structured data - "Try this" prompts at top: Start feature/scenario pages with practical prompts users can copy - Experimental warnings: Features in preview get callout at top - Cross-references at bottom: Related pages linked after main content Structure - Title (H1) → Warning/callout → Try this code → Over
