Before writing code for a new feature or significant improvement, perform deep research then write an implementation specification in docs/ and wait for explicit user approval. No code is written until the spec is approved.
Initiate a design-first study by researching the feature, drafting a concrete spec in docs/, and awaiting explicit approval before any code is written.

A design-first workflow requires researching constraints, drafting an implementation specification in docs/, and securing explicit sign-off before any code is written. This process prevents wasted development effort by ensuring the design is approved.
An implementation specification captures deep research and concrete design decisions into a testable document. It creates a permanent record for governance and traceability, ensuring teams review the feature design before coding begins.
You require user approval by routing architectural changes through a formal sign-off process on a drafted specification. No code is written until the user explicitly approves the design document stored in docs/.
Yes, the design-first approach applies to both feature development and major architectural changes. It guides teams through research and spec drafting to capture decisions and prevent wasted effort on significant improvements.
You document feature research by creating a SKILL.md entry point and formal specification files within the docs/ directory. This captures decisions and creates a permanent record for governance and traceability.
