DocDrift

DocDrift is a plugin/extension that continuously checks whether your product documentation matches reality. It connects to your repo (GitHub/GitLab), issue tracker (Jira/Linear), and API specs (OpenAPI/GraphQL) to detect “doc drift” events: renamed endpoints, changed flags, removed UI labels, or behavior changes that likely invalidate existing docs. It then opens a lightweight task with a precise diff, suggested doc locations to update, and a confidence score. The MVP focuses on Markdown docs in repos and common doc platforms via export/import (Notion/Confluence later). This is not magic: it won’t fully auto-write perfect docs, but it will reliably surface breakages and route them to the right owner before customers notice. Teams can set drift budgets (e.g., no more than 5 high-severity drifts per week) and get alerts in Slack.
