SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you diagnose whether your AI workflow is failing because you’re stuffing too much information (context stuffing) instead of shaping information for reliable attention (context engineering), so you can reduce brittleness, hedging, and inconsistent output.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Diagnose context stuffing vs. context engineering using a structured assessment of symptoms like escalating token costs, vague responses, and agent chains that pass everything along.
  • Deliver a practical remediation plan that includes defining decision-relevant boundaries, deciding what to persist vs. retrieve, and fixing underlying information architecture issues.
  • Implement bounded, two-layer memory and a Research→Plan→Reset→Implement cycle to prevent context rot and improve consistency in multi-step workflows for product teams.

Quick Start

Use the context-engineering-advisor skill to diagnose your current PRD, research, and retrieval habits by answering the five diagnostic questions about what decisions each context element supports and what would fail if you excluded it.

FAQPage Schema
How do I diagnose context stuffing vs context engineering in my AI workflow?

Diagnose context stuffing by assessing symptoms like escalating token costs, vague hedged responses, and multi-step agent chains that pass everything along, then evaluate decision relevance and context boundary ownership to determine if information is shaped for reliable attention.

Why does my multi-step agent chain produce bloated and inconsistent outputs?

Multi-step agent chains produce bloated and inconsistent outputs when they suffer from context stuffing, passing all information along instead of separating what to persist vs retrieve, leading to context rot and degraded attention across steps.

What is the best way to fix RAG retrieval strategy and memory architecture for product management?

Fix RAG retrieval strategy and memory architecture by defining bounded contexts, implementing a two-layer memory system, and applying a Research→Plan→Reset→Implement cycle to separate persistent data from retrieved decision-relevant information.

How do I reduce token efficiency issues and brittleness in RAG setups?

Reduce token efficiency issues and RAG brittleness by defining decision-relevant context boundaries, deciding what to persist vs retrieve, and fixing underlying information architecture issues to prevent context rot and improve output consistency.

When do I need bounded context boundaries and a Research Plan Reset Implement cycle?

You need bounded context boundaries and a Research→Plan→Reset→Implement cycle when product management workflows suffer from escalating token costs, hedging, and inconsistent outputs across multi-step agent chains and RAG memory setups.
