FAQPage Schema
How do I explore design options for a new feature architecture?

To explore design options for a new feature architecture, you run a focused design session that generates viable approaches complete with pros, cons, and risks. The session aligns options with your specific project pillars and constraints.

Can I automatically create GitHub issues from my design exploration outcomes?

Yes, you can automatically create GitHub issues directly from your design exploration outcomes. The process adheres to your project's spec writing guides and queries existing GitHub state before issue creation.

How does constraint analysis work during product design exploration?

Constraint analysis during product design exploration works by evaluating your project's specific questions and architectural pillars against current limitations. It ensures generated design options remain viable and compliant.

What is the best way to document risks and validation strategies for architecture options?

The best way to document risks and validation strategies for architecture options is to generate structured design summaries. These summaries pair each architectural approach with its specific pros, cons, and validation strategies.

Do I need existing GitHub state queries before starting issue creation from design sessions?

No, you do not need to manually run GitHub state queries before starting issue creation from design sessions. The workflow natively supports querying your repository state to ensure new issues match current specifications.
