SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

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

What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the challenge of determining whether a technical specification is buildable without ambiguity, ensuring that the design can be implemented by an AI without additional human guidance.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Buildability Assessment: Analyze a specification for implementability, internal consistency, and completeness.
  • Custom Lens Flavors: Apply specific lenses like security, cross-platform compatibility, design, performance, or accessibility to tailor the assessment.
  • Verdict Reporting: Provide a structured PASS/BLOCKED verdict with detailed findings for each review.

Quick Start

Run the spec-review skill on a specification file located at 'docs/specs/project-spec.md'.

FAQPage Schema
How do I assess the buildability of a technical specification before implementation?

You can assess specification buildability using structured analysis and lens-based reviews. This evaluates completeness, consistency, and implementability to ensure technical specifications are clear and actionable for automated software development.

What is lens-based analysis for specification implementation?

Lens-based analysis applies specific focus areas like security, cross-platform compatibility, design, performance, or accessibility to a specification review. This tailored assessment identifies potential implementation gaps within a technical specification before development begins.

How do I check if a technical specification is ready for AI implementation?

Checking if a specification is ready for AI implementation involves evaluating it against buildability criteria without ambiguity. A structured spec review ensures the design can be implemented by an AI without requiring additional human guidance.

Can I review a specification for cross-platform compatibility and security issues?

Yes, you can review a specification for cross-platform compatibility and security issues using custom lens flavors. Applying these specific lenses during the buildability assessment tailors the analysis to identify constraints and ensure robust software development.

What does a PASS or BLOCKED verdict mean in specification review?

A PASS or BLOCKED verdict in specification review provides a structured conclusion on buildability. It indicates whether a technical specification is implementable or requires resolving ambiguities, accompanied by detailed findings for each lens-based assessment.
