SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Turning a PRD into an actionable technical plan is often inconsistent and incomplete, leaving developers without clear architecture, data model, API, and testing guidance. This Skill provides a standardized Technical Specification Template that a Technical Product Owner Agent fills out to produce implementation-ready specs traceable to requirements and acceptance criteria. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Complete spec structure: Covers document control, system context, architecture decisions, data design, API contracts, security, observability, testing strategy, and rollout planning. - Traceability built in: Maps requirement IDs and acceptance criteria to modules, test cases, and review checklists. - AI Developer Agent handoff: Includes a ready-to-use task prompt format and a technical review checklist for accepting completed implementations. - Use Case: A product owner has an approved PRD for a new feature. Use this Skill to produce a full technical specification with module boundaries, database migrations, API endpoints, and a work breakdown that an AI Developer Agent can implement directly. ## Quick Start Use the technical specification template to turn my PRD for the new feature into a complete technical spec with architecture, data model, API design, and testing plan.

Frequently Asked Questions about tpo-technical-specification-template

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I write a technical specification from a PRD?▼

Start from the PRD's requirement IDs and acceptance criteria, then fill each template section: technical objective, architecture style, module map, data model, API endpoints, and testing strategy. Every section traces back to specific requirements so nothing is implemented without coverage.

What should a technical specification document include?▼

A complete spec includes document control, system context, architecture decisions, data design with migrations, API and interface contracts, security and permissions, error handling and logging, testing strategy, implementation plan, and open questions. This template covers all of these sections.

How do I hand off a technical spec to an AI coding agent?▼

Use the built-in AI Developer Agent task prompt in section 12. It packages context, stack, affected modules, requirement IDs, acceptance criteria, constraints, and expected deliverables into a single instruction block the agent can execute against.

Does this template support architecture decision records?▼

Yes, section 3.4 provides an architecture decision table with decision ID, alternatives considered, reasoning, and risk. It complements the architecture style selection and module boundary rules defined earlier in the document.

When should I not use a full technical specification template?▼

For trivial changes like copy updates or config tweaks, a full spec adds unnecessary overhead. The template is designed for features requiring architecture, data, API, or security decisions that must be reviewed before implementation.
