Research direction

Open .github/workflows/generate-skills.yml and compare its watched paths with the component discovery path in packages/scripts/src/generate-skills.ts. Add the component MDX glob, then verify that component documentation changes trigger skill generation and that the relevant skill artifacts are produced.

Description

Description

The Generate Skills workflow watches:

apps/docs/content/docs/**/*.mdx

However, packages/scripts/src/generate-skills.ts discovers component references from:

apps/docs/content/components/**/*.mdx

As a result, adding or updating a component MDX file does not trigger skill regeneration. The recently added Question component in #479 is one example: its docs and examples were merged, but skills/ai-elements/references/question.md and the corresponding skill scripts were not generated.

Suggested change

Update .github/workflows/generate-skills.yml to watch the component docs path:

- "apps/docs/content/components/**/*.mdx"

PR #493 regenerates the currently missing artifacts and fixes truncated TypeTable values, but this workflow path should be corrected to prevent future omissions.
