SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

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

What problem does it solve?

Mini Ralph PIV enables rapid feature delivery by guiding discovery, PRP generation, execution, and validation in a single streamlined workflow without requiring a formal PRD.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Discovery-driven: starts from conversational input and builds a structured plan.
  • One-pass PRP & Execution: generates a PRP and drives a deterministic, end-to-end feature implementation.
  • Iterative validation: includes a built-in validate-debug loop to ensure quality and determinism.

Quick Start

Provide a feature name (and optional path) to start a discovery-driven build with Mini Ralph PIV.

FAQPage Schema
How do I ship a feature in one pass without writing a full PRD?

One-pass feature implementation without a formal PRD uses a discovery-driven workflow that generates a Product Requirement Prompt (PRP), executes the implementation, and runs automated validation. It replaces heavy documentation with conversational input to produce traceable artifacts and deterministic outputs.

What is a PRP and how does it help automate feature execution?

A PRP, or Product Requirement Prompt, is a structured plan generated from conversational discovery that drives deterministic, end-to-end feature implementation. It replaces traditional PRDs by guiding automated execution and validation phases directly within a single streamlined pipeline.

How do I start a one-pass feature build using guided discovery?

To start a one-pass feature build, provide a feature name and an optional path. This input triggers a discovery-driven workflow that plans the task, generates a PRP, executes the build, and iteratively validates the results to ensure quality and determinism.

Can I use automated validation gates for small to mid-sized features?

Yes, automated validation gates can be applied to small and mid-sized features where a full PRD is unnecessary. This process uses a built-in validate-debug loop to ensure quality, enforce determinism, and maintain a clear commit workflow across the implementation pipeline.

When should I avoid using a one-pass implementation loop?

You should avoid a one-pass implementation loop for large-scale features requiring extensive cross-team alignment or formal PRDs. This approach is designed for small to mid-sized features where rapid delivery, traceable artifacts, and deterministic outputs are prioritized over heavy documentation.

What is the best way to ensure deterministic outputs in feature building?

The best way to ensure deterministic outputs in feature building is to use a structured workflow with explicit validation gates and a clear commit workflow. By generating a PRP and running an iterative validate-debug loop, the pipeline consistently produces traceable artifacts.
