SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Planning a complex feature from a spec is error-prone and slow; this Skill automates the creation of an end-to-end implementation plan with traceability checkpoints, consolidating requirements, artifacts, and governance into a single workflow.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Phase-driven planning that extracts requirements, builds a data model, and generates API contracts.
  • Automatic artifact generation: research notes, data model, contracts, and a plan with requirement mappings.
  • Checkpoint creation and validation to ensure full coverage before deployment.

Quick Start

Provide a feature specification and run the planning workflow to produce a complete implementation plan with traceability checkpoints.

FAQPage Schema
How do I turn feature specs into an actionable implementation plan?

To turn feature specs into an actionable plan, provide the specification document to the planning workflow. It automatically extracts all REQ-XXX requirements, generates research notes, data models, and API contracts, and maps them to a sequential plan.

How does requirement traceability work during feature planning?

Requirement traceability works by mapping each generated artifact, including data models and API contracts, directly to extracted REQ-XXX identifiers. This process validates full coverage and generates a checkpoints file to report any gaps or deviations for remediation.

What artifacts are generated when planning a complex feature?

When planning a complex feature, the workflow automatically generates sequential artifacts including research notes, a data model, API contracts, and a comprehensive implementation plan with explicit mappings to the extracted requirements inventory.

Can I validate requirements coverage before deployment from a spec?

Yes, you can validate requirements coverage before deployment. The workflow checks the assembled requirements inventory against generated artifacts, automatically creating a checkpoints file that highlights any coverage gaps or deviations requiring remediation.

What is the best way to automate API contract generation from specifications?

The best way to automate API contract generation is to run a phase-driven planning workflow on your feature specification. It extracts requirements to build an inventory and sequentially generates research notes, data models, and the API contracts with traceability.

Do I need to manually extract REQ-XXX identifiers before planning?

No, you do not need to manually extract REQ-XXX identifiers. The planning workflow automatically identifies all REQ-XXX requirements from the provided feature specification and assembles them into a requirements inventory for artifact generation.
