SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) and scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill streamlines the initial stages of software development by providing expert guidance on architecture, planning, and specification creation, ensuring projects are well-defined before implementation begins.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Architecture & Planning: Generates detailed architectural plans and project roadmaps.
  • Spec Creation: Scaffolds comprehensive technical specifications based on project requirements.
  • Use Case: Kickstart a new feature development by having ai-plan analyze the requirements, propose an architecture, and generate a detailed spec document, ready for the dispatch skill to execute.

Quick Start

Initiate a new feature plan by asking ai-plan to architect and spec the new user authentication module.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create technical specifications and architecture plans for a new software project?

You can create technical specifications and architecture plans by using AI-driven interrogation phases to define project scope, assess risks, and generate execution roadmaps. The skill scaffolds comprehensive specs based on your project requirements before implementation begins.

What is the best way to scaffold a project roadmap before writing code?

The best way to scaffold a project roadmap is through structured interrogation phases that analyze requirements and propose an architecture. This approach ensures your project is well-defined and generates a detailed spec document ready for execution.

Can I automate project scope definition and risk assessment for complex features?

Yes, you can automate project scope definition and risk assessment using pipeline auto-classification and session recovery. The system facilitates structured interrogation phases to evaluate requirements and generate detailed execution plans.

Does the planning lifecycle support integration with dispatch and discovery skills?

The planning lifecycle supports integration with discovery, spec, and dispatch skills. This provides a complete workflow where generated architecture and specification documents are handed off for execution.

When do I need AI-driven specification creation for software development?

You need AI-driven specification creation when you want to streamline the initial stages of software development. It provides expert guidance on architecture and planning to ensure projects are well-defined before implementation begins.

How to recover an interrupted architecture planning session?

You can recover an interrupted architecture planning session using the built-in session recovery feature. This allows you to resume the specification and roadmap generation process without losing your previous project scope definitions.
