SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill ensures that features are well-defined, thoroughly planned, and architecturally sound before any code is written, preventing costly rework and ensuring alignment with project values.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Deep Feature Planning: Explores the codebase, asks critical questions, and designs robust architectures.
  • Requirement Clarification: Identifies and resolves ambiguities through user interaction.
  • Architecture Design: Proposes and selects the optimal architectural approach based on project needs and constraints.
  • Use Case: When starting a new, non-trivial feature, use this Skill to generate a detailed plan.md that guides the development process, ensuring all edge cases and requirements are considered upfront.

Quick Start

Use the insight-plan skill to plan the feature 'Implement user authentication'.

Frequently Asked Questions about insight-plan

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I plan feature architecture before writing code?▼

Generate a detailed plan.md artifact by exploring the codebase and clarifying requirements against project values. This document serves as the essential input for downstream development loops before implementation begins.

What is the best way to clarify requirements for non-trivial features?▼

Clarify requirements for non-trivial features by identifying and resolving ambiguities through interactive user questioning. This upfront clarification ensures all edge cases are considered before architecture design.

How does code exploration help design robust architecture?▼

Code exploration helps design robust architecture by analyzing the existing codebase to propose and select the optimal structural approach. This ensures new features align with current project constraints and needs.

Can I use this approach for ATDD and feature development?▼

Yes, you can use this approach for ATDD and feature development to ensure features are well-defined and architecturally sound. It initiates non-trivial features by producing a plan consumed by development loops.

When should I not use upfront feature planning?▼

You should not use upfront feature planning for trivial changes that require no architectural design or requirement clarification. It is designed specifically for initiating non-trivial features to prevent costly rework.
