SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps users proactively identify and review the underlying assumptions Claude makes about a project phase before detailed planning begins, enabling early course correction.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Assumption Surfacing: Identifies and presents Claude's assumptions regarding technical approach, implementation order, scope boundaries, potential risks, and dependencies for a given phase.
  • Early Course Correction: Allows users to validate or challenge these assumptions before significant planning effort is invested, preventing wasted work.
  • Use Case: Before kicking off the "User Authentication" phase of a new application, you can use this Skill to see if Claude assumes a specific OAuth provider or a custom implementation, allowing you to align on the technical direction early on.

Quick Start

Use the gsd-list-phase-assumptions skill for phase 3.

FAQPage Schema
How do I surface project phase assumptions before detailed planning begins?

Surfacing project phase assumptions requires validating the phase number against a roadmap and presenting technical approach, implementation order, scope boundaries, risks, and dependencies conversationally for early user feedback.

When should I review risk assessment and dependencies for a project phase?

Review risk assessment and dependencies before kicking off a project phase to enable early course correction, preventing wasted planning effort on incorrect technical approaches or scope boundaries.

What's the best way to validate scope boundaries and technical approach for a new phase?

Validating scope boundaries and technical approach involves identifying assumptions about implementation order and potential risks, then presenting them conversationally so users can challenge or confirm the direction before planning.

How do I check if Claude's assumptions about implementation order match my roadmap?

Checking implementation order assumptions involves validating the specified phase number against an existing roadmap, then surfacing the assumed technical approach and dependencies for user review and alignment.

Can I use phase assumptions to prevent wasted work on incorrect technical directions?

Yes, surfacing phase assumptions allows you to validate or challenge the technical direction and scope boundaries before significant planning effort is invested, directly preventing wasted work on misaligned implementations.

Why does identifying dependencies early matter for project management?

Identifying dependencies early matters because it surfaces risk areas and scope boundaries conversationally, allowing project management teams to execute early course correction before detailed planning locks in incorrect technical approaches.
