bootstrapping-design-docs

Design-doc infrastructure bootstrapping creates a repo-local `design-docs/` directory with templates, active documents, and an executable design-doc skill. Run the bootstrapping process to generate folder structure, base templates, and project-specific guardrails automatically.

Bootstrapping generates base and variant design-doc templates tailored to your project, an actionable design-doc skill with explicit interfaces, test-data plans, and repeatable guardrails to prevent agent failure or data loss during document creation.

Yes, bootstrapping is idempotent. Repeated runs add new templates and enhance the infrastructure without breaking or overwriting existing design documents, letting you incrementally build your design-docs workspace.

A project-specific design-doc skill provides explicit specifications and test-data plans, enabling consistent document generation across your team. It enforces your project's design patterns and guides interactive clarification questions.

Bootstrap design-doc infrastructure early when starting a new project or onboarding teams that need standardized design documentation. It ensures consistent templates, workflows, and guardrails from the first document written.
