SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill streamlines the creation of detailed technical specifications and project plans, ensuring clarity and alignment before development begins.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated Spec Generation: Creates plan.md files for new features or bug fixes.
  • Two Modes: Supports quick, single-pass plans (/spec short) for simple tasks and in-depth, team-based investigations (/spec) for complex requirements.
  • Use Case: When starting a new feature like "implement user authentication," use /spec to generate a comprehensive plan, including investigations into relevant code areas, design decisions, and phased implementation steps.

Quick Start

Use the spec skill to create a short technical specification for adding rate limiting to the API.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a technical specification for a new software feature?

To generate a technical specification, use the spec skill to analyze code context and user requirements, producing a detailed plan.md file. It supports single-pass short-form planning for simple tasks and deep-dive investigations for complex features.

When do I need to write a technical specification before starting development?

You need a technical specification when starting new features or bug fixes to ensure clarity and alignment before development begins. It helps facilitate goal refinement, investigation decomposition, and phased implementation task generation.

What is the best way to plan complex software development projects requiring multiple investigations?

For complex software development projects, use the multi-agent deep-dive investigation mode to synthesize findings across relevant code areas. This approach decomposes complex requirements into detailed design decisions and phased implementation steps.

Can I create a quick project plan for simple technical writing tasks?

Yes, you can create a quick project plan for simple technical writing tasks using the single-agent short-form mode. This mode generates a fast, single-pass specification without the overhead of deep-dive team investigations.

Does the generated project plan include implementation tasks for the development team?

Yes, the generated project plan includes implementation tasks for the development team. It synthesizes findings from code context analysis into actionable, phased implementation steps directly within the plan.md file.
