SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill discovers and injects project-specific coding guidelines from .trellis/spec/ before implementation begins. It reads spec indexes, pre-development checklists, and shared thinking guides for the target package to ensure teams follow consistent conventions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Discover packages and their spec layers to determine applicable standards.
  • Read the Pre-Development Checklist and guideline files to inform the coding approach.
  • Apply shared guides to the current task to align with project-wide expectations.
  • Use when starting a new coding task, before writing any code, switching to a different package, or needing to refresh project conventions and standards.

Quick Start

Run the pre-development flow to load and apply the project guidelines before coding.

What is a pre-development checklist for software engineering?▼

A pre-development checklist is a set of project-wide conventions read from .trellis/spec layers that informs your coding approach and aligns tasks with shared guidelines before implementation begins.

How do I apply project-wide coding standards across different packages?▼

You apply project-wide coding standards across packages by discovering each package's spec layers and reading the applicable shared guides and checklists from the .trellis/spec directory.

When do I need to run the pre-development workflow?▼

You need to run the pre-development workflow when starting a new coding task, before writing any code, switching to a different package, or needing to refresh project conventions and standards.

How does the spec index locate applicable coding conventions for a target package?▼

The spec index locates applicable coding conventions by discovering the target package's spec layers within the .trellis directory and reading the shared guides to inform the development approach.

Do I need a .trellis directory to use the pre-development workflow?▼

Yes, the pre-development workflow requires a .trellis directory containing the spec indexes, pre-development checklists, and shared guides to discover and apply project-specific coding guidelines.
