SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill eliminates unstructured, ad-hoc project planning for new features and subsystems that leads to architectural debt, team misalignment, and costly rework by providing a standardized, reviewable design workflow.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Structured Design Documentation: Generates consistent design docs with ASCII architecture diagrams, numbered data flows, interface contracts, and failure mode analysis using a proven template.
  • Automated Project Guidance: Creates project-specific CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md files with behavioral guardrails, build/test/lint commands, and execution contracts to ensure consistent agent behavior across the team.
  • Linear Task Integration: Breaks approved designs into prioritized, shippable implementation tasks and automatically creates linked Linear issues with correct project tags and dependencies.
  • Use Case: Perfect for engineering teams starting new subsystems, security-sensitive features, or multi-file changes where architectural alignment and clear task breakdown are critical to avoid rework.

Quick Start

Use the design skill to create a reviewed architecture plan and prioritized implementation task breakdown for the new payment processing subsystem.

Frequently Asked Questions about design

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I create a structured design document for a new software subsystem?▼

This skill generates structured design docs with ASCII architecture diagrams, numbered data flows, interface contracts, and failure mode analysis to enforce a standardized review workflow for new subsystems.

What is the best way to break down an approved architecture design into Linear tasks?▼

This skill breaks approved designs into prioritized, shippable implementation tasks and automatically creates linked Linear issues with correct project tags and dependencies for streamlined execution.

How do I generate project-specific agent guidance files with behavioral guardrails?▼

This skill creates project-specific CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md files containing behavioral guardrails, build/test/lint commands, and execution contracts to ensure consistent agent behavior across the team.

When do I need a formal design review workflow for project kickoff?▼

You need a formal design review workflow when planning scenarios involving 4+ file changes, new module creation, security-sensitive features, or explicit human requests for architecture planning to prevent costly rework.

Does this design workflow tool integrate with Linear for task breakdown and tracking?▼

Yes, this skill integrates with Linear by breaking approved architecture designs into prioritized implementation tasks and automatically creating linked Linear issues with correct project tags and dependencies.

What are the limitations of unstructured project kickoff planning?▼

Unstructured project planning leads to architectural debt, team misalignment, and costly rework, which this skill mitigates by enforcing a standardized, reviewable design workflow with built-in review loops and guardrails.
