SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This skill provides rigorous, evidence-based reviews of architecture designs, ADRs, and code-vs-design alignments by referencing verified knowledge from the mxLore Knowledge-DB, ensuring findings require concrete proof and no automatic corrections.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Load and review specs/designs/ADR documents from the Knowledge-DB, producing structured findings.
  • Enforce evidence-based review rules, with mandatory proof and transparent traceability.
  • Support phase-based analysis (Phase 1–3) and integration with Skill Evolution for ongoing improvement.
  • Triggered by commands like /designcheck or /mxDesignChecker across architecture, ADR, and design-review workflows.

Quick Start

Ask the AI to run a design review by saying /designcheck and provide the target document to review.

FAQPage Schema
How do I perform an evidence-based architecture design review?

To perform an evidence-based architecture design review, trigger the skill via /designcheck, provide the target document, and it will analyze it against specs and ADR documents loaded from the knowledge database. It produces traceable findings requiring concrete proof without automatic corrections.

Can I validate ADR documents against existing specs?

Yes, you can validate ADR documents against existing specs by invoking /mxDesignChecker. The skill performs ADR validations using a phase-based analysis workflow, comparing your documents to verified knowledge loaded from the database to ensure strict alignment.

What is a code-vs-design audit and how does it work?

A code-vs-design audit checks if your code aligns with original design specifications. This skill performs the audit by loading specs from the knowledge database, applying a phase-based analysis workflow, and producing traceable findings with concrete proof while blocking automatic corrections.

Does this design review tool apply automatic code corrections?

No, this design review tool does not apply automatic code corrections. It blocks automatic corrections and instead produces traceable findings with concrete proof, ensuring developers manually review evidence-based results against specs and ADR documents.

Do I need a knowledge database to run a spec review?

Yes, you need a knowledge database to run a spec review. The skill loads verified specs and ADR documents from the mxLore Knowledge-DB to perform rigorous, evidence-based architecture reviews and design spec checks with traceable findings.

What's the best way to document design review outcomes for future analysis?

The best way to document design review outcomes is to use the skill's integration with Skill Evolution. After completing the phase-based analysis workflow, it automatically records traceable findings and concrete proof, supporting ongoing improvement of your architecture and code audits.
