What problem does it solve?
Design artifacts like proposals, specs, and task lists often contain internal contradictions, cross-document misalignments, gaps, or untestable requirements that lead to wasted implementation effort, rework, and misaligned deliverables when teams build without pre-implementation review.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Cross-Artifact Consistency Checks: Identifies contradictions, scope drift, dropped items, and terminology mismatches between linked design documents.
- Requirement & Task Validation: Ensures requirements have testable scenarios covering edge cases, tasks are self-contained with concrete acceptance criteria, and no unresolved placeholders remain.
- Use Case: A product and engineering team has a feature proposal, technical spec, design doc, and implementation task list; use this skill to review all artifacts before development starts to catch misalignments that would cause costly rework later.
Quick Start
Use the review-spec skill to review all design artifacts in the attached project folder for consistency, gaps, and alignment before implementation begins.
