SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill helps teams quickly bootstrap a new software project by gathering organizational preferences and governance requirements through an interactive Q&A, producing ready-to-use governance artifacts like RULE.md and starter structure.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Interactive Q&A to capture methodology, team roles, documentation preferences, and integrations
  • Auto-generate RULE.md and a starter project directory structure
  • Create a milestones.yaml template and a project README skeleton for immediate governance

Quick Start

To begin, tell Claude to initialize a new project and provide a project name, any preferred methodology, and team details. Claude will guide you through questions and then present a summary before creating the project structure.

What are the limitations of using an interactive Q&A for project scaffolding?▼

Using interactive Q&A for scaffolding produces basic starter templates rather than full implementations. The output is limited to RULE.md, milestones.yaml, and a directory layout, requiring subsequent skills to activate the project.
