SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Engineering managers and teams often struggle to align on architecture, data flow, and testing strategy. This skill provides an opinionated, interactive review to surface risks, edge cases, performance concerns, and actionable recommendations before coding starts.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Interactive architecture critique covering data flow, interfaces, and diagrams.
  • Edge-case identification, test coverage planning, and performance considerations.
  • Use Case: when asked to review the architecture or engineering plan, or when evaluating a design doc to lock in the plan.

Quick Start

Ask the skill to review your current architecture plan and walk through the execution plan step by step.

FAQPage Schema
How do I review an engineering plan to identify architecture risks before coding?

Review an engineering plan by interactively analyzing architecture diagrams, data flow, and interfaces to surface edge cases and performance concerns. This process provides actionable recommendations and aligns teams on testing strategy before development starts.

What is an architecture review and when do I need to evaluate a design doc?

An architecture review evaluates execution plans and data flow definitions to lock in technical design. You need this interactive critique during planning sessions to identify improvement opportunities and mitigate edge cases before implementation begins.

Can I use an interactive critique to define testing strategy and data flow for my execution plan?

Yes, applying an interactive critique to your execution plan defines testing strategy and data flow while identifying test coverage gaps. It walks through the plan step by step to ensure performance considerations and edge cases are fully addressed.

What is the best way to surface edge cases and performance concerns in a software architecture plan?

The best way to surface edge cases is through a ruthless plan review that critiques your architecture and data flow definitions. This approach identifies performance considerations and generates actionable recommendations to mitigate risks early.

Does an engineering plan review cover interface definitions and improvement opportunities?

Yes, an engineering plan review covers interface definitions alongside data flow and architecture diagrams. It analyzes these components to surface risks and provide actionable improvement opportunities for your technical design before coding starts.
