SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the creation of detailed, properly-sized implementation tasks directly from technical specifications, bridging the gap between design and execution.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Task Generation: Translates requirements and design documents into granular, actionable work items.
  • Sizing & Prioritization: Ensures tasks are appropriately sized (1-3 hours) and logically sequenced.
  • Use Case: After a feature's design is approved, use this Skill to break down the implementation into a clear, step-by-step plan that developers can immediately begin working on.

Quick Start

Generate implementation tasks for the 'user-authentication' feature.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate actionable implementation tasks from technical specifications?

To generate implementation tasks from technical specifications, this Skill translates approved requirements and design components into executable work items. It scopes tasks to feature directories and utilizes project-wide context to ensure full requirements coverage.

What is the best way to break down spec-driven development designs into developer tasks?

The best way to break down spec-driven development designs is to map design components into hierarchically structured work items. This process ensures tasks are properly sized for 1-3 hours of work and logically sequenced for immediate developer execution.

Can I scope generated tasks to specific feature directories?

Yes, you can scope generated tasks to specific feature directories within `docs/tasks/`. The Skill organizes the actionable work items into these directories while pulling project-wide context from `docs/steering/`.

How do I ensure generated tasks are appropriately sized for developers?

To ensure tasks are appropriately sized, the Skill automatically scopes and structures generated work items to fit within a 1-3 hour execution window. This sizing happens during the translation of approved specifications into granular tasks.

Does spec-driven development task generation require project-wide context?

Yes, spec-driven development task generation utilizes project-wide context from `docs/steering/` to accurately map requirements. This ensures the generated executable work items align with the broader project architecture and constraints.

When do I need to map requirements into executable work items?

You need to map requirements into executable work items after a feature's design is approved. This bridges the gap between design and execution by creating a clear, step-by-step implementation plan for developers.
