SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill eliminates unstructured, inconsistent playtest feedback by converting raw notes into a standardized report you can act on with clear priorities and routing.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Template generation: Produces a complete playtest report template in a consistent format for future sessions.
  • Notes analysis: Reads existing playtest notes from a provided path and structures them into findings aligned to the report sections.
  • Finding categorization & routing: Segregates outcomes into design changes needed, balance adjustments, bug reports, and polish items, then guides next-step actions.

Use Case: After a session, you capture raw tester feedback in notes; this Skill organizes that feedback into prioritized, studio-ready categories and triggers the appropriate downstream review or triage workflows.
