January Dosu Drop: New Year, New Docs Better docs review and a first look at our MCP Server

It's Dosu Drop day! 🎉 We have an MCP Server preview (your coding agents can access Dosu's knowledge), an improved diff UI, and we're searching for design partners to test Notion/Confluence/GitHub sync. Let us know if you're interested in taking a look! dosu.dev/blog/january-2026-dosu-drop

a little gift before the holidays! checkout the Dosu's new year resolution for what's to come in 2026

thankful we don't need to write changelogs anymore 🦃

Come for the updates, stay for Michael Mangus' storytelling.

The newsletter content will not disappoint!

feels like magic to see documentation you wrote months ago automatically reflect the latest business logic changes when a PR is merged

we are building out free public living knowledge bases for every OSS project

what features would you like to see? what projects do you want us to create a knowledge base for?

human jobs vs ai jobs

for documentation,

a human job is deeply understanding your audience and what content is important to them

an AI job is maintaining that content as your code and product changes

It's hard enough to remember to document learnings, but it's near impossible to remember to keep that documentation up-to-date.

Let AI do it for you!

the team had a ton of fun rebuilding Dosu's agent architecture based on what we've learned over the past year.

we have technical blog posts in the works, but an early user's reaction of "first time AI has genuinely impressed me." does a good job of summing it up the results :)

7 Data‑Driven Checks to ensure your Documentation ROI is high …and why Dosu keeps the meter running in your favor. Author: Marcos Placona | DevRel @ Dosu It’s easy for documentation to get shoved aside when you’re racing to ship features. But it’s the quiet fo...

Most companies say docs matter, but @mplacona.com 🧮 crunched the numbers.

Good docs =
-$22k/year wasted per dev just hunting for answers
-$1.25M/year in onboarding drag for a 100-dev org
-$50k+ in support costs you could deflect with self-service

Ai documentation is the best i got; parsing though complex code, making clear and searchable human readable tutorials for software that updates so often that human made documentation not only becomes out of date quickly.. it actively acts as a decoy to actually finding out what you need to know.
