System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you eliminate ambiguity and structural mistakes when authoring or troubleshooting an astra.yaml specification for an ASTRA analysis.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Schema clarity for structured research: Defines the complete astra.yaml structure, including inputs, outputs, decisions, prior_insights, findings, evidence, and narrative anchors.
  • Decision and option mechanics: Explains how to model methodological choices as parameterized decisions with constrained options.
  • Provenance- and evidence-driven validation: Covers evidence linking rules (DOI quote requirements, artifact references) and validation workflows so your spec is execution-ready.
  • Sub-analysis composition and universes: Documents inline/external sub-analyses, from-path wiring, and universe selection for loading option sets.

Quick Start

Ask an AI assistant to review your astra.yaml against the ASTRA reference and point out what is mis-specified, missing, or invalid.
