To translate requirements into a concrete system design, this Skill applies discovery and synthesis to produce a traceable design document. It guides you through drafting architecture plans, defining boundaries, and generating a file structure plan for implementation.

Spec-driven design is a workflow that turns evolving requirements into traceable technical architecture plans. You need it when complex requirements demand clear ownership, boundary definitions, and executable guidance to align implementation tasks with steering context.

Creating a design document with traceability involves mapping each architectural decision back to numeric requirements. This Skill enforces that traceability during synthesis, ensuring your design draft aligns with the initial discovery and risk assessment outputs.

Yes, you can generate a file structure plan and testing strategy directly from requirements. This Skill supports producing these accompanying artifacts during design drafting to drive and guide subsequent implementation tasks.

The best way to align technical design with steering context is to enforce boundary definitions and risk assessment during synthesis. This Skill ensures your architecture plan remains boundary-aware and updates the research log for continuous alignment.

Kiro-spec-design works effectively for complex and evolving requirements discovery. It guides the transformation of these requirements into a concrete design.md file, ensuring executable guidance and clear ownership throughout the spec-driven workflow.
