Key Design Principles

1. 主 Agent 编排，子 Agent 执行: 所有繁重计算委托给 universal-executor 子 Agent
2. Brief Returns: Agents return path + summary, not full content (avoid context overflow)
3. System Agents: 使用 cli-explore-agent (探索) 和 universal-executor (执行)
4. 成熟库内嵌: marked.js (MD 解析) + highlight.js (语法高亮)，无 CDN 依赖
5. Single-File HTML: TiddlyWiki-style interactive document with embedded resources
6. 动态标签: 根据实际章节自动生成导航标签

Execution Flow

┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│  Phase 1: Requirements Discovery (主 Agent)                     │
│  → AskUserQuestion: 收集软件类型、目标用户、文档范围             │
│  → Output: manual-config.json                                   │
├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│  Phase 2: Project Exploration (cli-explore-agent × N)           │
│  → 并行探索: architecture, ui-routes, api-endpoints, config     │
│  → Output: exploration-*.json                                   │
├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│  Phase 2.5: API Extraction (extract_apis.py)                    │
│  → 自动提取: FastAPI/TypeDoc/pdoc                                │
│  → Output: api-docs/{backend,frontend,modules}/*.md             │
├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│  Phase 3: Parallel Analysis (universal-executor × 6)            │
│  → 6 个子 Agent 并行: overview, ui-guide, api-docs, config,     │
│    troubleshooting, code-examples                               │
│  → Output: sections/section-*.md                                │
├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│  Phase 3.5: Consolidation (universal-executor)                  │
│  → 质量检查: 一致性、交叉引用、截图标记                          │
│  → Output: consolidation-summary.md, screenshots-list.json      │
├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│  Phase 4: Screenshot Capture (universal-executor + Chrome MCP)  │
│  → 批量截图: 调用 mcp__chrome__screenshot                        │
│  → Output: screenshots/*.png + manifest.json                    │
├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│  Phase 5: HTML Assembly (universal-executor)                    │
│  → 组装 HTML: MD→tiddlers, 嵌入 CSS/JS/图片                     │
│  → Output: {name}-使用手册.html                                  │
├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│  Phase 6: Iterative Refinement (主 Agent)                       │
│  → 预览 + 用户反馈 + 迭代修复                                    │
│  → Output: iterations/v*.html                                   │

Directory Setup

// Generate timestamp directory name
const timestamp = new Date().toISOString().slice(0,19).replace(/[-:T]/g, '');
const dir = `.workflow/.scratchpad/manual-${timestamp}`;

// Windows
Bash(`mkdir "${dir}\\sections" && mkdir "${dir}\\screenshots" && mkdir "${dir}\\api-docs" && mkdir "${dir}\\iterations"`);
