SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Adopting a template into an in-progress project can fail in subtle ways when existing GDDs, ADRs, and stories don’t match the template’s required internal formats, causing downstream pipeline skills to silently misbehave.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Format compliance auditing: Verifies GDD/ADR/story structures (not just file presence) including required headings/fields and placeholder-content risks.
  • Gap classification & prioritised migration plan: Groups issues into BLOCKING/HIGH/MEDIUM/LOW, then produces an ordered, checkable migration plan file at docs/adoption-plan-[date].md.
  • Risk-focused brownfield gating: Detects conditions that will break template skills right now, such as systems-index.md parenthetical status values and missing ADR ## Status.
  • Scoped audits: Supports argument modes to audit only gdds, adrs, stories, or infra, or run a full audit.

Quick Start

Use the adopt skill to audit your existing project and generate a prioritized migration plan by running: Run /adopt with no arguments.

FAQPage Schema
How do I audit existing project documents for template format compliance?

A brownfield migration audit validates existing GDD, ADR, story, and infrastructure artifacts against template format compliance by checking required headings, internal fields, and placeholder-content risks. It classifies gaps into blocking, high, medium, and low tiers to prevent downstream pipeline skills from silently misbehaving.

How do I migrate an in-progress project to a new template safely?

Migrating an in-progress project safely requires auditing existing artifacts for format compliance and generating a prioritized, numbered migration plan. This plan classifies gaps into blocking, high, medium, and low tiers, ensuring downstream template pipeline skills do not silently break during the brownfield migration.

What breaks downstream pipeline skills when adopting a template into an existing project?

Downstream pipeline skills break when existing artifacts lack required internal formats, such as missing ADR Status headings or invalid parenthetical status values in systems-index.md. These brownfield gating risks cause template skills to silently misbehave if not triaged before adoption.

Can I run a scoped audit on only my project's ADRs and GDDs?

Yes, you can run a scoped audit targeting only ADRs, GDDs, stories, or infrastructure artifacts by passing the corresponding argument. This restricts the format compliance check and migration plan generation to the specified document type instead of running a full project audit.

What is a brownfield migration plan and where is it generated?

A brownfield migration plan is a prioritized, checkable document generated at docs/adoption-plan-[date].md. It provides an ordered list of format compliance gaps classified by severity tiers, guiding the safe adoption of a template into an in-progress project.
