SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Transform synthesis insights into explicit, traceable decisions to guide action and risk assessment.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Load decision candidates from cross-synthesis and extract supporting evidence
  • Document alternatives, trade-offs, and risks with fully linked decisions
  • Generate DECISIONS.yaml and RISKS.yaml with governance-quality gates

Quick Start

Load decision candidates from cross-synthesis and begin documenting each decision with evidence, trade-offs, and linked risks.

Frequently Asked Questions about making-decisions

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I document trade-offs and risks for product strategy decisions?

To document trade-offs and risks for product strategy decisions, you extract supporting evidence from synthesis insights and map alternatives. This generates schema-aligned YAML outputs with fully linked risks for governance.

What is the best way to generate DECISIONS.yaml for governance tracking?

Generating DECISIONS.yaml for governance tracking involves loading decision candidates and extracting supporting evidence to create deterministic decision entries. This ensures explicit trade-off documentation and traceable risk management.

Can I link RISKS.yaml entries directly to specific product decisions?

Yes, you can link RISKS.yaml entries directly to specific product decisions through deterministic decision entries. This approach ensures that documented trade-offs maintain fully linked risks across the governance workflow.

How do I turn research synthesis insights into traceable decisions?

Turning research synthesis insights into traceable decisions requires loading cross-synthesis candidates and documenting each with evidence, alternatives, and linked risks. This outputs schema-aligned YAML files for governance-quality gates.

Does this decision governance approach work for product discovery and strategy planning?

Yes, decision governance applies directly to product discovery and strategy planning where explicit trade-offs, evidence tracking, and risk management are required. It automates end-to-end traceable decisions for these contexts.

When do I need explicit evidence tracking for YAML decision documentation?

You need explicit evidence tracking for YAML decision documentation when applying governance-quality gates to research or strategy planning. This ensures alternatives and trade-offs are fully linked to deterministic decision entries.
