SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

It helps you start a new project without missing key context by guiding you through structured questions, optional research, and then producing clear requirements and a phased roadmap.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Unified project kickoff flow: runs a questioning workflow (with optional research) and converts outcomes into planning artifacts.
  • Deep context and scoped outputs: generates project context, requirements, and a roadmap in a consistent structure.
  • Phase-ready execution: sets up state so you can immediately move into execution planning (e.g., planning phase 1) after initialization.

Quick Start

Run /gsd-new-project --auto to automatically answer the setup questions, perform research if needed, and generate .planning/PROJECT.md, REQUIREMENTS.md, and ROADMAP.md for your new project.

FAQPage Schema
How do I start a new software project with structured requirements and a phased roadmap?

To initialize a new software project with a phased roadmap, this Skill runs a guided questioning workflow with optional research to produce structured requirements and planning artifacts. It generates files like PROJECT.md, REQUIREMENTS.md, and ROADMAP.md to establish full project context before execution.

What is the best way to gather project context and scope before development execution?

The best way to gather project context before execution is using a guided questioning workflow that converts your answers into scoped planning artifacts. This process captures deep context and sets up a planning state, allowing you to immediately move into execution planning for your first phase.

Can I automatically generate planning artifacts like ROADMAP.md without manual setup questions?

Yes, you can automatically generate planning artifacts like ROADMAP.md without manual setup by running the initialization flow with the auto flag. This mode automatically answers setup questions, performs research if needed, and outputs the required project, requirements, and roadmap files.

Does this project kickoff workflow support research before creating requirements?

Yes, this project kickoff workflow supports optional research before creating requirements. During the initialization process, it can perform research based on your project context to inform the generated requirements and phased roadmap structure.

What planning files and directory structures are generated during project initialization?

The planning files generated during project initialization include .planning/PROJECT.md, config.json, REQUIREMENTS.md, ROADMAP.md, and STATE.md, along with a research directory. These artifacts provide a consistent structure for unified project kickoff and phase-ready execution.

When do I need workflow gates for validation and routing in project planning?

You need workflow gates for validation, approvals, commits, and routing when initializing a project that requires structured planning artifacts before execution. These gates ensure that the generated requirements and phased roadmap meet necessary validation standards before moving into development.
