SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill translates a PRD into an implementation-ready architecture document that guides technical teams.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Read and interpret docs/PRD.md to extract requirements and constraints.
  • Produce a structured docs/ARCHITECTURE.md with high-level architecture diagrams, component responsibilities, data flows, tech stack decisions, and a suggested project structure.
  • Use case: when starting a new product, convert textual requirements into a concrete blueprint that developers can follow.

Quick Start

Run architecture on a project with a docs/PRD.md and generate docs/ARCHITECTURE.md ready for review by the engineering team.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate an architecture document from a PRD?

You can convert a PRD into a system design blueprint by reading docs/PRD.md and producing docs/ARCHITECTURE.md, which includes architecture diagrams, data flows, and tech stack decisions for engineering teams.

What is the best way to translate product requirements into a tech spec?

Translating product requirements into a tech spec involves extracting constraints from docs/PRD.md and outputting docs/ARCHITECTURE.md to define implementation-ready system design, APIs, and deployment considerations.

Do I need a specific file format to start system design generation?

System design generation requires a docs/PRD.md file containing your product requirements and constraints, which is then interpreted to output a structured architecture.md blueprint for developers.

What components are included in an architecture.md file for engineering teams?

An architecture.md file for engineering teams includes high-level architecture diagrams, component responsibilities, data flows, tech stack decisions, and a suggested project directory structure to guide implementation.

Can I use this to create a deployment plan for a new product?

Yes, you can create an implementation-ready architecture document for a new product that covers system design, APIs, and deployment considerations by translating your initial textual requirements into a structured blueprint.

When do I need to generate a structured blueprint from a PRD?

You need to generate a structured blueprint from a PRD when starting a new product and requiring a concrete, implementation-ready architecture document with tech decisions that developers can follow.
