Frequently Asked Questions about festina-explore

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I validate feature feasibility against a codebase before creating tickets?

To validate feasibility before ticket creation, this Skill cross-checks proposed ideas against your codebase and documentation, using Socratic dialogue to surface assumptions and clarify scope. This prevents premature task generation by ensuring ideas are structurally sound.

What is Socratic dialogue for software engineering scope clarification?

Socratic dialogue for scope clarification is a guided questioning technique that surfaces hidden assumptions in product or engineering ideas. This Skill applies it across documentation and codebase contexts to ensure an idea is fully understood before deciding whether to create a ticket.

How do I explore an idea and decide if it warrants a development ticket?

To explore an idea and decide on ticket creation, describe the topic to this Skill, answer its clarifying questions, and review the cross-checked codebase and documentation outputs. It then provides a ticket-ready summary if the idea is worth pursuing.

Does this Skill automatically create tickets after exploring feasibility?

No, this Skill prevents automatic task creation during the feasibility exploration process. It outputs a ticket-ready summary designed for optional integration with ticket creation tools, ensuring a human reviews the decision before any task is generated.

Can I use this Socratic exploration tool for both product and engineering documentation?

Yes, you can apply this Socratic exploration tool across product, engineering, and documentation contexts. It cross-checks ideas against relevant docs and the codebase to determine feasibility comprehensively before any ticket creation occurs.

What are the limitations of using Socratic dialogue for codebase feasibility checks?

A limitation of this Socratic dialogue approach is that it depends on the accuracy of existing codebase and documentation lookups to determine feasibility. It outputs a structured summary but deliberately prevents automatic task creation, requiring manual integration for the next steps.
