SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

IDD workflow helps teams convert vague software needs into explicit, verifiable artifacts across narrative, model, contract, and certification layers.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Repo preflight with overlay resolution and constraint carry-forward.
  • Narrative-to-scope workflow: /solution-narrative, specs, and models.
  • Downstream skill orchestration using repo overlay and discovery to pick implementation skills.
  • Certification traceability and evidence generation alignment.

Quick Start

Begin with /solution-narrative to capture personas and journeys for a new capability.

FAQPage Schema
How do I convert vague software requirements into verifiable engineering artifacts?

To convert vague software requirements into verifiable engineering artifacts, an intent-driven workflow maps human intent into structured spec layers like narrative, model, contract, and certification, ensuring traceability across the capability lifecycle.

What is the best way to start spec-first development for a new capability?

To start spec-first development for a new capability, begin by generating a solution narrative to capture personas and journeys, establishing foundational scope before creating downstream models, contracts, and fixtures.

How do I maintain certification traceability from initial intent to final implementation?

To maintain certification traceability from initial intent to final implementation, apply a structured multi-layer workflow that generates evidence alignment across spec artifacts, connecting personas, journeys, stories, and contracts directly to certification.

When should I use an intent-driven workflow orchestration instead of direct task execution?

Use intent-driven workflow orchestration instead of direct task execution when task clarity is uncertain, such as starting new capabilities or onboarding, guiding narrative-to-scope conversion to ensure repo overlay constraints are loaded.

Does workflow orchestration support carrying forward repo overlay constraints during development?

Yes, workflow orchestration supports carrying forward repo overlay constraints during development by performing a repo preflight with overlay resolution, ensuring all constraint carry-forward is maintained across generated spec artifacts.
