Rules are custom instructions that are automatically prepended to the documentation context whenever your teamspace retrieves library docs. Use them to set coding standards, define architectural patterns, or specify framework preferences so every result follows your team's conventions.
Manage them from the rules tab of your dashboard.
Rule Scopes#
Each rule applies at one of two scopes:
- Global Rules — apply to every library your teamspace accesses.
- Library-Specific Rules — apply only when retrieving docs for a particular library.
Examples#
- "Always use TypeScript strict mode"
- "Prefer server components in Next.js"
- "Use the App Router, not the Pages Router"
