SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps teams quickly determine if new feature requests, requirements, or change requests align with the project's established boundaries, preventing scope creep and ensuring development effort is focused.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Scope Validation: Analyzes requirements against project artifacts like constitutions, feature specs, and implementation plans.
  • Dimension-Based Analysis: Evaluates alignment across architecture, tech stack, business domain, principles, and feasibility.
  • Use Case: A product manager pastes a new user story into the chat. The skill analyzes it against the project's constitution and existing specs, returning a clear verdict on whether it's in scope, partially in scope, or out of scope, with detailed reasoning.

Quick Start

Use the cgs.ba.inscope skill to analyze the following requirements text: "As a user, I want to integrate with a third-party payment gateway using a technology not currently in our stack."

FAQPage Schema
How do I check if a new feature request fits my project scope?

To check if a new feature fits your project scope, validate the requirement against established artifacts like constitutions and feature specs. This process assesses alignment across architecture, tech stack, business domain, principles, and feasibility to prevent scope creep.

What is requirements alignment analysis in product management?

Requirements alignment analysis is the process of evaluating new user stories against a project's defined boundaries. It analyzes requirements across dimensions like architecture, tech stack, and business domain to produce a structured verdict on whether the effort is in scope or out of scope.

Do I need Speckit documentation to validate project scope?

Yes, you need Speckit documentation to validate project scope effectively. This analysis is project-agnostic and relies on available Speckit artifacts, such as implementation plans and feature specs, to accurately assess whether new requirements align with established boundaries.

How do I analyze a user story against a project constitution?

To analyze a user story against a project constitution, input the requirements text for evaluation. The system compares the story against your project artifacts, returning a clear verdict of in scope, partially in scope, or out of scope, complete with detailed reasoning.

What is the best way to prevent scope creep when adding requirements?

The best way to prevent scope creep when adding requirements is to perform dimension-based scope validation. By evaluating new requests against architecture, tech stack, business domain, and feasibility, teams ensure development effort remains focused on aligned features.

Why does my new requirement fail tech stack alignment validation?

Your new requirement fails tech stack alignment validation because it introduces technologies or dependencies outside your project's established boundaries. The analysis evaluates requests against existing specs, producing an out-of-scope verdict with reasoning when architectural boundaries are crossed.
