SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps teams transform vague feature ideas into well-formed prompts for /speckit.specify, enabling structured brainstorming and early alignment before formal specification.

Core Features & Use Cases

Phase-driven refinement: start from a seed idea, generate a concise draft, and identify the most important gaps to address.
Guided questioning: present targeted, multiple-choice questions to resolve 2-3 gaps and converge on a clear brief.
Final handoff workflow: signal readiness and hand off the final description to /speckit.specify for execution, with a default "Final" block describing the intended outcome.
Project-context awareness: leverage repository context to surface conflicts or alignment notes during refinement.

Quick Start

Describe your feature idea in a sentence and I will generate a draft and ask targeted questions to refine it.

FAQPage Schema

How do I turn rough feature ideas into clear specifications?▼

You can turn rough feature ideas into clear specifications by describing your idea in a sentence, which triggers a phased refinement workflow that generates a draft and asks targeted questions to resolve gaps before final handoff.

What is a phased refinement workflow for feature briefs?▼

A phased refinement workflow for feature briefs is a structured process spanning Phase 0 through Phase 3 that starts from a seed idea, generates a draft, and identifies the most important gaps to address before formal specification.

How do I structure brainstorming sessions for early-stage feature scoping?▼

Structure brainstorming sessions for early-stage feature scoping by applying a guided questioning process that presents targeted, multiple-choice questions to resolve two to three gaps and converge on a clear brief.

Does the feature brief refinement process require YAML frontmatter?▼

Yes, the feature brief refinement process requires YAML frontmatter to enforce structure and metadata consistency throughout the phased workflow before handing off the final description.

Can I use repository context to surface conflicts during feature ideation?▼

Yes, you can use repository context to surface conflicts or alignment notes during feature ideation, ensuring the refined brief leverages project-context awareness to maintain consistency with existing project constraints.
