SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Post-merge artefacts contain insights, decisions, and pattern opportunities that are often lost as teams move on. This skill reads the completed artefact chain after a PR is merged and DoD artefacts are fixed, summarises learnings, and prepares updates to standards, decisions logs, or copilot-instructions.md.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Summarise artefact chains across discovery, decisions, stories, test plans, and dod/dor to surface repeatable patterns and decisions.
  • Propose updates to standards and decision logs to improve future delivery and governance.
  • Generate PR-ready proposals for SKILL.md or standards changes that reflect the learned guidance.

Quick Start

Trigger /improve after a merged PR to begin extracting learnings from the artefact chain.

What is the best way to extract decisions and patterns from completed artefact chains?

Extracting decisions and patterns from artefact chains involves summarizing discovery, story, and test plan artefacts post-merge to surface repeatable guidance and propose updates to governance documents.

Can I automatically propose updates to copilot-instructions and decision logs after a merge?

Yes, you can automatically propose updates to copilot-instructions and decision logs by analyzing finalized Definition of Done artefacts and generating PR-ready proposals to enforce a governance loop.

When do I need to enforce a governance loop for standards and decisions?

Does the improve skill work without external dependencies to update standards?

Yes, the improve skill works without external dependencies, reading the completed artefact chain directly to prepare PR-ready proposals for SKILL.md or standards changes based on learned guidance.
