SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Sketches implementation approaches for approved gaps to guide design decisions before coding, ensuring alignment with constellation constraints.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Grounded sketches: Produce design sketches for each approved gap, anchored to stars and contracts from the constellation map.
  • Connectivity with constellation map: Show how each sketch ties to specific stars and interfaces, and indicate what can be reused vs what must be generated.
  • Validation-oriented outputs: Include success criteria, constraints, and trade-offs to support rapid review and sign-off.

Quick Start

Identify the gap to sketch and request an implementation sketch referencing the constellation map and gap analysis for context.

FAQPage Schema
How do I sketch implementation approaches for architecture gaps before coding?

To sketch implementation approaches for architecture gaps, identify the approved gap and generate a design sketch referencing your constellation map. The sketch documents how to connect new approaches to existing stars, detailing what to reuse versus generate.

What is a constellation map gap analysis used for in software architecture?

A constellation map gap analysis is used to identify missing architecture components and guide design decisions. It grounds implementation sketches by referencing existing stars by name and documenting contracts to ensure alignment with documented interfaces and seams.

How do I document design constraints and success criteria for architecture gaps?

Document design constraints and success criteria for architecture gaps by producing validation-oriented design sketches. These sketches outline trade-offs, reuse opportunities, and connection points to support rapid review and sign-off before coding begins.

Can I reuse existing architecture components when sketching new implementation designs?

Yes, you can reuse existing architecture components when sketching new implementation designs. The sketch explicitly indicates what can be reused from existing stars and what must be generated, ensuring alignment with documented contracts and interfaces.

What is the best way to align new design sketches with existing architecture contracts?

The best way to align new design sketches with existing architecture contracts is to ground each sketch in constellation knowledge. Reference stars by name and document contracts to ensure alignment with documented interfaces and seams before development.
