SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Transform a scattered narrative brief into a single, comprehensive narrative specification document that coordinates technical analysis, audience insights, narrative arc, and visual language.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Structured synthesis: S1-S4 outputs feeding into a unified narrative-spec.md.
  • Parallel research: Run technical and audience streams in phase A and sequential streams in phase B.
  • Validation: Cross-stream consistency checks before synthesis.
  • Deliverable: niwashi_docs/<narrative>/narrative-spec.md ready for review.

Quick Start

Provide a narrative brief to trigger niwashi-02-research and generate the full narrative-spec.md.

FAQPage Schema
How do I turn a narrative brief into a complete narrative specification?

A narrative specification coordinates technical analysis, audience insights, narrative arc, and visual language into a single document. It ensures cross-stream consistency and captures pattern lineage before moving into wireframe planning and user review.

How do I validate audience research and technical analysis before wireframe planning?

You validate audience research and technical analysis by running cross-stream consistency checks before final synthesis. This structured validation ensures the narrative specification accurately captures all research streams before user approval.

What is the best way to structure visual language and narrative arc research?

The best way to structure visual language and narrative arc research is running parallel technical and audience streams in phase A, followed by sequential streams in phase B. This structured approach feeds unified outputs into a single narrative specification document.

Do I need an existing narrative brief to generate a narrative specification document?

Yes, an existing narrative brief is required to generate a narrative specification document. The process triggers when a brief exists and requires four research streams to produce a synthesis suitable for wireframe planning and user approval.

Can I use narrative specifications for wireframe planning and visual language design?

Yes, narrative specifications are explicitly designed for wireframe planning and visual language design. The final document captures cross-stream validations and pattern lineage, creating a structured foundation directly suitable for downstream wireframe development.
