SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill solves the problem of turning scattered ideas into a documentation draft that is clear, correctly structured, and actually understandable to new readers.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Context Gathering: Guides the user to capture audience, purpose, constraints, templates, and background decisions through clarifying questions and an efficient “info dump” flow.
  • Refinement & Structure: Builds the document section-by-section using iterative brainstorming, curated options, drafting, and surgical edits based on user preferences.
  • Reader Testing: Validates the finished doc by simulating fresh-reader questions to catch ambiguity, missing assumptions, and contradictions before publishing.
  • Use Cases: Ideal for drafting PRDs, RFCs, technical specs, design/decision docs, proposals, and other structured writing tasks.
