SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Eliminates hidden defects and ambiguity by rigorously auditing engineering artifacts before implementation.

Core Features & Use Cases

Consistency, completeness, and clarity checks to catch contradictions, missing sections, undefined terms, and vague language.
Traceability and testability validation to ensure requirements connect to modules/contracts and have measurable verification paths.
Security and standards compliance review to identify auth gaps, insecure trust boundaries, missing error paths, and non-standard formatting.

Quick Start

Ask the reviewer skill to audit the provided specification and return a structured verdict with critical blockers, gaps, and actionable fixes.

FAQPage Schema

How do I audit a software architecture spec for consistency and completeness?▼

To audit a software architecture spec, you validate it for contradictions, missing sections, and undefined terms. This artifact review process ensures technical clarity and standards compliance before implementation begins.

What is traceability validation in technical specification review?▼

Traceability validation in technical specification review ensures that all requirements connect directly to modules and contracts. It establishes measurable verification paths to confirm every specified feature can be tested and traced.

How do I run a security and standards compliance review on API documentation?▼

Running a security review on API documentation identifies authentication gaps, insecure trust boundaries, and missing error paths. The review also detects non-standard formatting to ensure strict standards compliance.

Can I use an automated quality gate to validate user stories and task breakdowns?▼

Yes, you can apply an automated quality gate to validate user stories and task breakdowns. It performs rigorous QA audits to catch vague language and ensures every task has a measurable verification path.

What is the best way to classify severity for defects found during a PRD review?▼

The best way to classify severity for PRD defects is through a structured technical audit that produces severity-classified findings. This approach prioritizes correction guidance by distinguishing critical blockers from minor gaps.

When should I not use an automated technical quality gate for pre-implementation review?▼

You should avoid using an automated technical quality gate when an artifact lacks defined requirements or contracts. Without baseline traceability data, the audit cannot accurately map verification paths or validate testability.
