What problem does it solve?
This Skill orchestrates the creation of comprehensive implementation plans from a complete feature specification using Specification-Driven Development (SDD). It generates artifacts such as research notes, data models, API contracts, and test scenarios, while validating constitutional compliance to ensure reusable, testable, and contract-first design.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Research & artifact generation: Creates research notes, data-model definitions, contracts, and quickstart tests.
- Constitutional validation: Enforces 14 constitutional principles (Library-First, Test-First, Contract-First, etc.) and tracks dependencies.
- Execution readiness: Produces plan artifacts and prepares for the /tasks step.
Quick Start
Use the sdd-planning skill after you have a completed feature spec. Run the plan template to generate research.md, data-model.md, contracts/, and quickstart.md for downstream task generation.
