SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill ensures deterministic loading of the Spec Tree by traversing from the product root to the target node, collecting all relevant ADRs, PDRs, ancestors, and lower-index siblings to provide a complete, auditable context for decision-making.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Deterministic context loading: reads product, ancestors, ADRs/PDRs, and target specs without skipping.
  • Comprehensive scope: includes lower-index siblings at each level to constrain the target.
  • Validation and abort protocol: aborts when required documents are missing with remediation guidance; bootstrap mode for authoring.

Quick Start

Invoke the contextualizing skill with the full path to the target node, e.g., /contextualizing spx/21-infra.enabler/32-parser.outcome, to load the complete SPEC_TREE_CONTEXT.

Frequently Asked Questions about contextualizing

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I load the entire spec-tree context deterministically for a target node?▼

Deterministic spec-tree context loading traverses from the product root to the target node, collecting ancestors, ADRs, PDRs, and lower-index siblings to emit a complete context manifest for decision-making.

Why does spec-tree context discovery fail when required ADRs or PDRs are missing?▼

Spec-tree context discovery aborts when required documents are missing to prevent partial context, providing precise remediation guidance instead of continuing with incomplete ancestor or decision records.

What is included in the scope of a spec-tree context manifest?▼

A spec-tree context manifest includes the product root, ancestor nodes, lower-index siblings at each level to constrain the target, ADRs, PDRs, and the target node itself.

Can I bootstrap and author new spec-tree documents if they do not exist yet?▼

Yes, a bootstrap mode supports authoring by allowing you to start the spec-tree context loading process even when certain documents are still pending creation.

How do I invoke context loading for a specific spec-tree path?▼

Invoke the contextualizing skill with the full path to the target node, such as spx/21-infra.enabler/32-parser.outcome, to load the complete SPEC_TREE_CONTEXT manifest at a glance.
