SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

The Interactive PRD exploration and ADR creation skill helps teams convert high-level Product Requirements Documents into well-structured Architecture Decision Records through guided, interactive sessions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Facilitates domain decomposition and sub-system analysis
  • Guides architecture decisions with trade-off analysis and MADR-compliant outputs
  • Produces structured ADRs aligned to organizational constraints and governance
  • Works with greenfield PRDs and major architectural shifts to document decisions

Quick Start

Start by providing your PRD context and initiate the tool to begin an interactive architecture discovery session.

FAQPage Schema
How do I convert a PRD into Architecture Decision Records?

To convert a PRD into Architecture Decision Records, you can use an interactive exploration process that identifies architecture drivers and decomposes the product requirements into structured ADRs for review. This guided approach ensures decisions align with governance constraints.

What is MADR format for documenting architecture decisions?

MADR is a structured format for documenting architecture decisions that includes trade-off analysis and organizational governance alignment. It provides an actionable, compliant output ready for review when recording major architectural shifts or greenfield project designs.

How do I identify architecture drivers from a Product Requirements Document?

To identify architecture drivers from a Product Requirements Document, you analyze the PRD context through guided interactive exploration. This process enables domain decomposition and per-sub-system analysis to extract the core architectural requirements driving your systems design.

Can I use interactive ADR generation for greenfield projects and major architectural shifts?

Yes, interactive ADR generation works for both greenfield projects and major architectural shifts. It facilitates domain decomposition and sub-system analysis, guiding architecture decisions with trade-off analysis to produce MADR-compliant outputs.

What is the best way to guide architecture decisions with trade-off analysis?

The best way to guide architecture decisions with trade-off analysis is through an interactive discovery session that decomposes PRDs into ADRs. This ensures structured, MADR-compliant outputs aligned with organizational constraints and ready for actionable review.

Do I need a structured PRD to start architecture discovery and MADR generation?

Yes, you need to provide PRD context to initiate an interactive architecture discovery session. This context is required to identify architecture drivers and decompose the requirements into structured, MADR-compliant Architecture Decision Records.
