SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a structured, AI-assisted workflow for planning research phases by extracting gray-area decisions and generating a formal CONTEXT.md to guide downstream agents.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Identify phase-specific gray areas from ROADMAP.md and phase goals, focusing on physics-aware methodological decisions.
  • Conduct Socratic dialogue with controlled questioning (4 questions per area) and track answers to build a decision-rich CONTEXT.md.
  • Preserve user-stated observables, deliverables, references, and stop conditions to ensure continuity across phases.
  • Produce a ready-to-review CONTEXT.md plus a compact planning summary for the next steps.
  • Support deferment of ideas to future phases while keeping track of context.

Quick Start

Initiate a gpd-discuss-phase session for a specified phase, then select gray areas to discuss and generate CONTEXT.md.

FAQPage Schema
How do I structure a research phase decision context for downstream AI agents?▼

You can structure a research phase decision context by using a Socratic dialogue to probe physics-aware gray areas, surfacing assumptions, and recording decisions into a formal CONTEXT.md file to guide downstream agents.

What is the best way to identify methodological gray areas in a research workflow?▼

The best way to identify methodological gray areas in a research workflow is to analyze your ROADMAP.md and phase goals, isolating physics-aware decisions that require structured probing before execution.

Can I preserve user-stated observables and references when planning research phases?▼

Yes, you can preserve user-stated observables, deliverables, references, and stop conditions during phase planning, ensuring continuity across downstream agents without requiring further user prompts.

How does Socratic dialogue work for phase planning context management?▼

Socratic dialogue for phase planning works by asking controlled questions, typically four per gray area, tracking your answers to build a decision-rich context file while deferring non-phase ideas to future phases.

Do I need a ROADMAP.md to start generating a CONTEXT.md for my research workflow?▼

Yes, you need a ROADMAP.md and defined phase goals to start, as the process extracts phase-specific gray areas from these inputs to produce a ready-to-review CONTEXT.md and a compact planning summary.
