SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps teams resolve competing, overlapping, or complementary proposals before moving into specification work, so decisions are recorded clearly instead of debated repeatedly.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Structured convergence sessions: Opens an IDEA session tied to a parent issue with explicit governance mode and immutable parameters.
  • Proposal triage and comparison: Filters out duplicates or weak proposals, then compares surviving options across defined decision dimensions.
  • Voting and closure workflow: Supports solo, unanimity, and quorum-based vote paths, then produces SPECS issues or a no-consensus closure record.
  • Use case: A product or engineering lead can use this Skill when several solution ideas exist for the same issue and needs a disciplined path to one approved direction.

Quick Start

Use the idea skill to open a governance-based convergence session for parent issue 42 in vote mode with a defined voter list and quorum.

FAQPage Schema
How do I resolve competing proposals for the same issue before specification work begins?

Proposal triage filters out duplicates and weak options, then compares surviving proposals across defined decision dimensions to produce a governed decision record before specification work begins. This prevents repeated debates over the same issue.

What voting modes are available for consensus-based issue governance?

Consensus-based issue governance supports solo, unanimity, and quorum-based voting modes. Each mode requires immutable governance parameters and auditable forge issue comments to validate the decision path.

What happens to proposals when a convergence session reaches no consensus?

When no consensus is reached, the convergence session produces a no-consensus closure record instead of downstream specification issues. This formally documents the governance outcome and prevents unapproved proposals from advancing.

How do I run a proposal triage session for overlapping solution ideas?

Open an IDEA session tied to a parent issue with explicit governance mode and immutable parameters. The session filters out duplicate or weak proposals and compares surviving options across defined dimensions to reach a decision.

When do I need to create SPECS follow-up issues during issue triage?

SPECS follow-up issues are created when consensus is reached during a convergence session. They serve as the downstream specification triggers that formally initiate the specification work after proposal triage and voting conclude.

Can I use quorum-based voting for proposal comparison in a governance workflow?

Quorum-based voting is supported for proposal comparison within a governance workflow. You must define a voter list and quorum threshold in the immutable session parameters before initiating the vote.
