What problem does it solve?
This Skill prevents interpretation drift across product and engineering artifacts by making every decision, requirement, implementation, test, analytics event, and release traceable to its source and verifier.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Founder Intent Records: Preserve the original brief, constraints, transcripts, examples, and append-only decisions as the external source of truth.
- End-to-End Traceability: Assign structured IDs and source, verifier, state, and revision metadata across goals, requirements, criteria, designs, tickets, code, tests, evidence, analytics, and releases.
- Conflict and Gate Detection: Resolve competing claims using explicit precedence rules and identify conditional founder approvals for pricing, sensitive data, legal disclosures, destructive migrations, and other risk triggers.
- Use Case: Apply it before scope lock and at every hand-off to verify that a requirement has a founder source, current acceptance criteria, implementation coverage, tests, and release evidence.
Quick Start
Use the intent-trace skill to audit the project's traceability chain, conflicts, and conditional founder gates from the repository root.
