SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill translates vague user requests into precise, audit-friendly /goal prompts that follow a deterministic 5-section template (Objective/Scope/Constraints/Done when/Stop if). It also auto-detects project type, reads project-specific constraints from AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md when present, and evaluates audit-friendliness before output.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Generate copy-pasteable /goal prompts using the standardized 5-section template.
  • Auto-detect project type (Node/Python/Swift/Go/Rust/static) by filesystem inspection or repo URL.
  • Load project-specific rules from AGENTS.md / CLAUDE.md to tailor constraints and stop conditions.
  • Walk users through the required steps (mode selection, project detection, scenario choice, and 5 inputs) to ensure precise outcomes.
  • Provide references and templates to accelerate consistent /goal generation across teams.

Quick Start

Provide a vague request (e.g., "help me write a goal") and the skill will produce a ready-to-paste /goal command along with an audit-friendliness verdict and a short rationale.

FAQPage Schema
How do I convert vague project requests into structured /goal commands?

To convert vague project requests into structured /goal commands, this skill uses a deterministic 5-section template covering Objective, Scope, Constraints, Done when, and Stop if. It translates fuzzy inputs into audit-friendly prompts to prevent scope creep.

What is an audit-friendly /goal prompt and when do I need one?

An audit-friendly /goal prompt is a standardized command formatted with Objective, Scope, Constraints, Done when, and Stop if sections. You need one when executing automation workflows to prevent misalignment and ensure verifiable scope boundaries during project execution.

Does the goal prompt builder auto-detect project type from a filesystem or repo URL?

Yes, the goal prompt builder auto-detects project type from the filesystem or repo URL. It identifies environments like Node, Python, Swift, Go, Rust, or static sites to accurately tailor the generated constraints and stop conditions for your specific project.

How do I load project-specific constraints from AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md into my prompt?

To load project-specific constraints from AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md, the skill automatically reads these files when present in your repository. It integrates these rules directly into the generated /goal command to tailor constraints for your workflow.

What is the best way to prevent scope creep when generating workflow automation templates?

The best way to prevent scope creep when generating workflow automation templates is to enforce deterministic boundaries using the 5-section template. By defining explicit Stop if and Done when conditions, the prompt restricts unapproved actions during execution.

Can I generate a goal prompt without providing detailed technical specifications?

Yes, you can generate a goal prompt without detailed specifications by providing a vague request like 'help me write a goal'. The skill walks through mode selection, project detection, and scenario choice to produce a precise, copy-pasteable /goal command.
