SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

The specification generation process is often error-prone and time-consuming; this skill creates a complete, machine-readable specification file that clearly defines requirements, constraints, interfaces, and data contracts to guide AI-driven implementation and review.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Structured frontmatter and Markdown body to support AI consumption and machine parsing.
  • Clear guidance for organizing requirements, constraints, definitions, interfaces, and data contracts.
  • Consistent storage in the /spec/ directory with a standardized naming convention to enable reuse across projects.

Quick Start

Provide the specification's purpose to generate the spec file under /spec/ using the naming convention.
