SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the challenge of ensuring projects (both code and venture-based) adhere to established engineering and business best practices, identifying gaps and actively implementing necessary structures and configurations.

Core Features & Use Cases

Project Assessment: Analyzes projects against comprehensive checklists for code (Foundation, SDD, DDD, TDD, Quality, PM & Memory) and venture (Foundation, Validation, Growth, Scale).
Gap Identification: Clearly reports on missing or partial items using visual progress bars.
Active Implementation: Creates directories, configures files, and integrates practices like Git, CLAUDE.md, ADRs, testing frameworks, and venture-specific documentation.
Tier/Stage Alignment: Adapts implementation depth based on project type (Minimal, Standard, Full for code) or business stage (Discovery, Validation, Growth, Scale for ventures).

Quick Start

Use the align skill to assess and implement best practices for the current project.

FAQPage Schema

How do I align an existing codebase with engineering best practices?▼

To align an existing codebase, assess the project against comprehensive checklists for Foundation, SDD, DDD, TDD, and Quality. The tool identifies gaps and actively implements missing structures like Git, CLAUDE.md, and ADRs.

What is the best way to automate project onboarding and setup for established methodologies?▼

Automating project onboarding involves systematically configuring project directories and integrating methodologies like ADRs and TDD. This Skill actively creates necessary files and configurations based on project type and stage.

Does the alignment process adapt to different project stages and types?▼

Yes, alignment adapts implementation depth based on project type. Code projects align to Minimal, Standard, or Full tiers, while ventures align to Discovery, Validation, Growth, or Scale stages.

How does gap identification work for venture and code projects?▼

Gap identification works by analyzing projects against comprehensive checklists and clearly reporting missing or partial items using visual progress bars for both code and venture-specific documentation.

Can I use this to set up venture-specific documentation and validation structures?▼

Yes, you can set up venture-specific documentation and validation structures. It actively implements necessary configurations for ventures in Discovery, Validation, Growth, and Scale stages.

What limitations should I expect when systematizing project alignment across different directories?▼

Systematizing project alignment requires adapting to the project's specific tier or stage. Implementation depth varies, meaning minimal projects receive fewer structures than full-tier code or growth-stage venture projects.
