Summary
That used to be them on the Aspire team (they're a small team of 10 building dev tools for distributed apps). Here’s what that bought them, in numbers pulled straight out of GitHub: for Aspire 13.3 and 13.4, 82 feature-docs pull requests merged at a median of 44.8 hours after the product pull request, every one of them reviewed by the engineer who shipped the feature. Their product lives in microsoft/aspire and their docs site lives in microsoft/aspire.dev —different repo, deploy target, and review chain. Most teams figure out same-repo automation pretty quickly; cross-repo automation is where things get sharp. Docs writer opens the pull request, reads the diff, and pings the engineer to clarify what changed.
