SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This guide provides a structured, collaborative workflow for creating documentation. It helps teams transfer context, iteratively refine content, and verify that documents are clear and reader-friendly before publication.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Context Gathering: Collect relevant background, objectives, audience, and constraints; surface decision points early.
  • Refinement & Structure: Iteratively draft, structure, and tighten sections to improve readability and impact.
  • Reader Testing: Validate the document with a fresh reader or model to uncover ambiguities and gaps.
  • Trigger & Flow: Offer a guided workflow when users mention writing docs, proposals, technical specs, or decision documents; provide a clear three-stage process and transition points.
  • Interaction Model: If the user accepts, start Stage 1; if the user declines, proceed with a freeform approach.

Quick Start

Offer the structured three-stage co-authoring workflow and guide the user through Stage 1 (Context Gathering) before moving to Stage 2 (Refinement & Structure) and Stage 3 (Reader Testing).
