SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Coding tasks often suffer from lack of structure, missed requirements, and unreliable delivery. This Skill provides a guided workflow to plan, implement, verify, and deliver software work with clear checkpoints.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Planning: break down requests into testable steps.
  • Execution guidance: structured steps with verification prompts.
  • Verification: ensure tests, UI, and documentation align with user needs.
  • Memory and preferences: store user-defined preferences in ~/code/memory.md for consistent personalization.
  • Use cases: feature development, refactors, and bug fixes in typical software projects.

Quick Start

Describe your coding task and approve the first plan to begin the guided workflow.

FAQPage Schema
How do I structure coding workflows for feature implementation or refactoring?

Structured coding workflows break development requests into testable steps with clear checkpoints for planning, execution guidance, and verification. This approach ensures requirements are met and delivery is reliable.

What is the best way to plan and verify coding tasks step by step?

Plan coding tasks by breaking down requests into testable steps, follow structured execution guidance with verification prompts, and ensure tests, UI, and documentation align with needs before delivery.

Can I use a guided workflow to fix bugs without autonomous code changes?

Yes, guided coding workflows provide execution guidance only without autonomous actions. You receive stepwise plans and verification prompts, ensuring you retain full control over all code modifications.

How do I store user preferences for consistent personalization during software development?

Store user-defined preferences in a local file at ~/code/memory.md. This ensures consistent personalization across coding tasks without sending data externally, maintaining local privacy and context.

Does coding workflow guidance work for both refactors and bug fixes?

Yes, coding workflow guidance applies to feature development, refactors, and bug fixes in typical software projects. It provides planning, structured steps, and verification for these specific development tasks.

What are the limitations of using guidance-only coding workflows?

Guidance-only workflows do not perform autonomous actions or modify files like SKILL.md. The limitation is that all execution requires manual user approval, relying on the user to apply suggested changes.
