SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill acts as an AI coaching assistant for building a new Agent, guiding users from the initial icebreaker through the entire lifecycle (icebreaker → requirements → design → build → acceptance) by asking the right questions, creating workspace artifacts, and guiding transitions based on progress files.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Guiding onboarding: prompts users to name their Agent, define purpose, and set up a workspace.

  • Lifecycle coaching: detects current stage by inspecting .agent-workspace/*/progress.md and suggests next steps.

  • Stage transition guidance: provides structured prompts and templates for each lifecycle phase, from icebreaker to handoff.

  • Use cases: teams designing a new Agent for product decisions, coaching junior PMs, or mentoring developers in agent creation.

Quick Start

Tell me your Agent name and a short description to start the onboarding process.

FAQPage Schema
How do I guide new agent onboarding from design to launch?

Agent onboarding is guided through a structured lifecycle flow from icebreaker to acceptance, capturing user goals and suggesting next steps. It creates workspace artifacts to track progress and drive stage transitions.

What is the best way to coach junior PMs through agent creation?

Coaching junior PMs in agent creation involves enforcing dialogue discipline and avoiding technical design questions. This skill provides structured, stage-aware prompts across requirements, design, and build phases to mentor them effectively.

How does detecting the current stage from progress files work?

Detecting the current stage works by reading .agent-workspace progress files to determine lifecycle status. It inspects these markdown files to identify whether the agent is in icebreaker, requirements, design, build, or acceptance phase.

Can I use this lifecycle coaching for teams designing a new agent for product decisions?

Lifecycle coaching suits teams designing a new agent for product decisions by providing structured prompts and templates. It guides the entire workflow from initial icebreaker through requirements and build to final handoff.

What do I need to start the agent onboarding process?

To start the agent onboarding process, you provide the agent name and a short description. This initiates the workspace setup and triggers the first icebreaker stage of the lifecycle coaching flow.

Why does this coaching avoid technical design questions during the build phase?

Avoiding technical design questions during the build phase enforces coaching discipline by focusing on dialogue rather than implementation. It ensures users concentrate on workflow progression and stage acceptance criteria.
