SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Tech Lead — Senior technical authority. Owns architecture decisions and technical quality across the entire project lifecycle. All diagrams MUST use Mermaid syntax. Use when: (1) assessing technical risks during planning (/tl plan), (2) designing system architecture (/tl design), (3) validating technical feasibility (/tl validate), (4) providing guidance during implementation (/tl implement), (5) reviewing code quality and architecture compliance (/tl review), (6) reviewing test coverage (/tl test), (7) producing technical documentation (/tl document), or (8) user says "tl", "tech lead", "architecture", "design", "code review", "technical validation".

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Lead architecture decisions and technical risk assessments across planning, design, validation, and implementation.
  • Produce comprehensive architecture artifacts, diagrams (Mermaid), and documentation to guide the SDLC.
  • Coordinate cross-team validation and governance, manage backlog transitions, and ensure quality gates before progression.

Quick Start

Kick off the seven-phase SDLC workflow with the TL agent to guide architecture decisions from planning to documentation.

FAQPage Schema
How do I coordinate architecture decisions and technical validation across the SDLC?

Coordinate architecture decisions across the SDLC by enforcing technical governance, validating feasibility, and managing backlog transitions. This ensures structured cross-team validation and traceability from planning through documentation.

What is the best way to document system architecture using Mermaid diagrams?

Document system architecture using Mermaid syntax to enforce design clarity and governance. This produces structured architecture artifacts and diagrams that guide the entire software development lifecycle.

How do you enforce quality gates and code review standards during implementation?

Enforce quality gates and code review standards by validating architecture compliance and test coverage. This coordinates cross-team validation to ensure structured governance before backlog progression.

When do I need a technical lead to assess technical risks during project planning?

Assess technical risks during project planning when you need a senior authority to own architecture decisions and technical quality. This validates technical feasibility and enforces governance standards.

Can I use this to manage backlog transitions and cross-team validation?

Yes, you can manage backlog transitions and cross-team validation through structured governance. This ensures quality gates are met and architecture compliance is verified before any project progression.

What are the limitations of managing architecture governance without structured Mermaid artifacts?

Without structured Mermaid artifacts, architecture governance lacks design clarity and traceability across the SDLC. This leads to uncoordinated cross-team validation and missed quality gates during implementation.
