What problem does it solve?

This skill slows a request down to interrogate it, challenge assumptions, and prove why the work is not yet safe to execute.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Blocker-first gating: surface blockers and unverified assumptions before drafting a spec.
  • Repository-grounded verification: require explicit evidence from SKILL.md and SPEC_STANDARDS.md before trusting surfaces.
  • CIA threat modeling and cross-model audits: enforce threat modeling and audit gating as part of the spec process.
  • Source-of-truth only: enforce append-only work-item updates to keep scope canonical.

Quick Start

Read the SKILL.md and SPEC_STANDARDS.md, inspect the target repository, surface blockers and unverified assumptions, then begin drafting the spec.
