SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the creation of a comprehensive FEATURE_TECHNICAL_SPEC.md by analyzing the feature SPEC, project context, and existing code patterns, reducing manual drafting time and ensuring consistency.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Existing code analysis: Reuses patterns from the codebase to avoid duplication and maintain coherence with project standards.
  • Integration planning: Maps touched files, data changes, and migration steps to guide implementation.
  • Documentation automation: Produces a structured, audit-ready technical spec for stakeholders and AI coding agents.

Quick Start

Run the skill in the project root with the feature name, for example: /feature-technical-spec analytics

Frequently Asked Questions about feature-technical-spec

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a technical specification from a feature spec?▼

To generate a technical specification, the skill analyzes your feature spec and existing code to map integration points, data changes, and migration needs into a structured FEATURE_TECHNICAL_SPEC.md document.

What is included in an automated MVP technical spec?▼

An automated MVP technical spec includes existing code analysis for reusable patterns, integration planning, data modeling, regression risk assessment, migration strategy, and optional governance considerations.

How do I document integration points and migration steps for a new feature?▼

You document integration points and migration steps by analyzing project context and existing code patterns, which maps touched files and data changes to guide implementation and downstream task generation.

Can I use this to create an audit-ready technical spec for stakeholders?▼

Yes, you can create an audit-ready technical spec for stakeholders and AI coding agents by enforcing a rigorous specification format that covers integration analysis and migration strategy.

Does generating a technical spec require any external dependencies?▼

Generating a technical spec requires no external dependencies, but you should run the skill in your project root with the feature name so it can accurately analyze your existing codebase.

When should I not use automated technical spec generation?▼

You should not use automated technical spec generation when your feature lacks an existing codebase to analyze for reusable patterns, as the output relies heavily on identifying current integration points and data structures.
