Rh Ssg Technical Examples

Red Hat SSG: Technical Examples review skill

Review documentation for technical example compliance with the Red Hat Supplementary Style Guide.

Checklist

Commands requiring root privileges

• [ ] Commands requiring root privileges use sudo prefix, not su -
• [ ] Commands with sudo use the $ prompt, not #
• [ ] Shell prompts alone are not the only indicator of required privilege level — step text, intro, or prerequisites also state the requirement
• [ ] If multiple commands require root, introductory text mentions it: "Some tasks in this procedure require root privileges..."

Ellipses in YAML code blocks

• [ ] Ellipses in YAML use # ... (commented out), not bare ...
• [ ] Bare ... in YAML is reserved for "end of document" per YAML spec

IP addresses and MAC addresses

• [ ] Example IPv4 addresses use RFC 5737 reserved ranges:
• 192.0.2.0/24
• 198.51.100.0/24
• 203.0.113.0/24
• [ ] Example IPv6 addresses use RFC 3849 reserved range: 2001:0DB8::/32
• [ ] Example MAC addresses use RFC 7042 reserved ranges:
• Unicast: 00:00:5E:00:53:00 – 00:00:5E:00:53:FF
• Multicast: 01:00:5E:90:10:00 – 01:00:5E:90:10:FF
• [ ] No real IP or MAC addresses are used in examples

Long code examples

• [ ] All code blocks are necessary, accurate, and helpful
• [ ] Code blocks are copy-and-paste friendly (except for user-replaced values)

Syntax highlighting

• [ ] Source language is provided when supported: [source,yaml], [source,xml], etc.
• [ ] bash is NOT used for terminal commands — it misinterprets # as a comment instead of a root prompt
• [ ] Use terminal or console or omit the source language for shell commands

How to use

1. Review only changed content and necessary context
2. For each issue found, cite the relevant SSG section
3. Mark issues as required (real IP addresses, bash source language for shell commands) or [SUGGESTION] (improvements)

Example invocations

• "Review technical examples in this procedure module"
• "Check IP addresses and code blocks in proc_configuring-network.adoc"
• "Do an SSG technical examples review on the changed files"
