SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the critical need for safe and controlled changes by ensuring that every modification made to a system or codebase has a clearly defined and documented rollback procedure.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Mandatory Rollback Documentation: Enforces the documentation of rollback steps before or alongside any change.
  • Change Management: Integrates rollback planning into commit, merge, and deployment workflows.
  • Use Case: Before merging a new feature, the PR body must include a "Rollback" section detailing the exact git revert command or equivalent procedure, ensuring quick recovery if issues arise post-merge.

Quick Start

Document the exact git revert command for the latest commit in the PR body.
