SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Manage solution outline documents with consistent governance, validation, and reference material to ensure deliverables are well-scoped and auditable.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Deliverable-driven planning: supports numbered deliverables with explicit metadata blocks, explicit file references, and cross-linking to standards.
  • Validation and governance: checks for required sections, ensures the deliverable contract is respected, and exposes references to templates and standards.
  • Architecture-aware guidance: integrates with project-architecture data to assist placement, skill routing, and module context for outlines.

Quick Start

Create a new solution_outline.md for your plan, then run the plan-marshall manage-solution-outline validate command to check its deliverables.

FAQPage Schema
How do I validate a solution outline document for required sections and deliverables?

Solution outline validation checks deliverable contracts by enforcing required sections, numbered deliverables, metadata blocks, and verification criteria. This governance ensures your planning documents are well-scoped, consistent, and auditable before downstream execution.

What is deliverable-driven planning and how does it structure task documentation?

Deliverable-driven planning structures task documentation using numbered deliverables with explicit metadata blocks and file references. This approach cross-links deliverables to standards, ensuring the planning scope is explicit and verifiable across the project lifecycle.

How do I integrate project-architecture context into my solution outline?

You integrate project-architecture data by loading architecture-aware guidance during outline creation. This assists with placement, skill routing, and module context, ensuring your solution outline aligns with the broader architectural standards and references.

Does manage-solution-outline work with existing templates and references?

Yes, the tool integrates with existing templates and references to standardize solution outlines. It exposes references to standards and templates during validation, ensuring your deliverables respect the project's established governance and formatting contracts.

What are the limitations of relying on standardized solution outlines for task planning?

Standardized solution outlines require strict adherence to metadata blocks and verification criteria. If your planning task lacks explicit deliverables or architecture context, the validation governance may reject the document or require additional structural framing before approval.
