SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Automates the bootstrap process for a new software project by generating core documentation and initial planning artifacts, reducing setup time and ensuring a repeatable baseline.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Creates essential project documents (PROJECT.md, REQUIREMENTS.md, ROADMAP.md) and seeds an initial Phase 1 plan.
  • Conducts guided discovery to extract requirements and translate them into concrete planning artifacts.
  • Provides an end-to-end bootstrap workflow that can be invoked for any fresh project.

Quick Start

Run the gsd-bootstrap flow to initialize a new project with full planning.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate project setup and generate initial planning artifacts from scratch?

Automating project setup involves running a bootstrap flow that generates core planning artifacts like PROJECT.md, REQUIREMENTS.md, and ROADMAP.md. This establishes a repeatable baseline and seeds an initial Phase 1 plan for your team.

What is the best way to create project documentation and a structured roadmap during initialization?

Creating project documentation during initialization is best handled by a guided discovery flow that extracts requirements and translates them directly into structured planning artifacts. This ensures your roadmap and requirements documents are aligned from the start.

Can I use an automated bootstrap workflow for any new software project?

Yes, you can use an automated bootstrap workflow for any new software project starting from scratch. It provides an end-to-end setup process that can be invoked repeatedly to establish a consistent baseline across different teams.

How does guided discovery work when bootstrapping project requirements?

Guided discovery works by asking targeted questions to extract project requirements during the bootstrap phase. It then automatically translates your answers into concrete planning artifacts, ensuring your initial Phase 1 plan is accurately documented.

Do I need existing documentation before running an automated project scaffolding flow?

No, you do not need existing documentation before running an automated project scaffolding flow. The bootstrap process is designed for teams starting from scratch and will generate all necessary core documents during initialization.
