SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Dynamically identifying and applying domain-specific guidelines to guide tasks across specification, planning, implementation, and validation, reducing drift and rework by surfacing concrete migration patterns, best practices, and checklists.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Context-driven guideline lookup: automatically discover relevant guidelines by analyzing current specification, plan, or code context.
  • Relevance scoring and application: rank guidelines by direct technology match, related family, and general applicability, then apply guidelines to the current phase.
  • Extensibility: new domains can be added by creating SKILL.md files under skills/guidelines/{domain}/ with metadata, patterns, and transformation rules.

Quick Start

Use the guidelines skill to scan the current task context and load matching SKILL.md entries from skills/guidelines to inform decisions.

FAQPage Schema
How do I dynamically apply domain-specific guidelines to my software migration patterns?

To dynamically apply domain-specific guidelines, the skill analyzes your current task context, scores relevance by technology match, and integrates applicable migration patterns and checklists into your workflow to reduce drift and rework.

What are domain-specific guidelines and when do I need them for implementation planning?

Domain-specific guidelines are concrete best practices, transformation rules, and checklists for specific technologies. You need them during specification, planning, implementation, and validation phases to prevent drift and ensure adherence to established migration patterns.

How do I add new domain knowledge and migration patterns to the guidelines skill?

To add new domain knowledge, create a SKILL.md file under the skills/guidelines/{domain}/ directory, populate it with metadata, patterns, and transformation rules, and the skill will automatically discover and load it based on context.

Can I use context-driven guideline lookup across specification and implementation phases?

Yes, context-driven guideline lookup supports specification, planning, implementation, and validation phases by scanning the current context to discover, rank, and apply matching guidelines from the skills/guidelines directory dynamically.

What is the best way to reduce drift and rework when applying transformation rules?

The best way to reduce drift and rework is using dynamic guideline discovery, which analyzes your current context, ranks matching transformation rules by direct technology match, and surfaces concrete checklists to guide implementation.

Does the guidelines skill work without external dependencies for checklist matching?

Yes, the guidelines skill operates without external dependencies, relying solely on internal context analysis and SKILL.md files stored under skills/guidelines/ to score relevance and apply matching checklists dynamically.
