SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires specify, uv, and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Streamlines building software features by guiding teams through a governance-backed, seven-phase workflow that starts with a constitution and ends with implementation, ensuring principled and auditable decisions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Provides a deterministic seven-phase workflow (constitution, specify, clarify, plan, tasks, analyze, implement) to structure feature development.
  • Stores governance artifacts under .specify/memory and .specify/specs per feature, enabling traceability and versioning.
  • Integrates with a script/template ecosystem to guide planning, analysis, and implementation and to bootstrap new features.

Quick Start

Initialize a new constitution-driven project and begin the first feature using the included scripts and templates.

FAQPage Schema
What is a constitution-driven feature development workflow?

A constitution-driven feature development workflow structures software creation through a seven-phase process—constitution, specify, clarify, plan, tasks, analyze, implement—ensuring principled and auditable decisions from start to finish.

How do I structure feature specifications using a phased workflow?

You structure feature specifications using a deterministic seven-phase workflow that progresses from constitution to implementation. This guides teams through structured specification, clarification, planning, and traceable implementation using provided templates.

Do I need the specify and uv tools to use this workflow?

Yes, the specify and uv dependencies are required. The workflow integrates with a script and template ecosystem powered by these tools to bootstrap new features and automate phases from specification through analysis.

Can I use YAML frontmatter for feature discovery in a structured specification workflow?

Yes, the workflow supports YAML frontmatter discovery to identify and manage structured phase templates. This enables automated feature bootstrapping and artifact generation within the specification ecosystem.

Where are governance artifacts and feature specs stored during traceable implementation?

Governance artifacts and feature specifications are stored under the .specify/memory and .specify/specs directories per feature. This storage structure enables traceability and versioning throughout the development lifecycle.

What's the best way to bootstrap a new constitution-driven feature project?

The best way to bootstrap a new constitution-driven project is using the included scripts and templates. They initialize the governance structure and guide the first feature through the specification and analysis phases.
