SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Discovers and applies project-specific coding guidelines from .trellis/spec/ before implementation begins. This ensures new tasks start with a consistent standard across packages.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Read and map .trellis/spec indexes and Pre-Development Checklists to the current task.
  • Read the specific guideline files linked by the Pre-Development Checklist (e.g., error-handling.md, conventions.md, mock-strategies.md) to enforce project standards.
  • Read shared guides in .trellis/spec/guides to align with organizational best practices.

Quick Start

Run the pre-development plan by listing relevant packages and applying the applicable specs using the trellis tooling.

FAQPage Schema
How do I apply project-specific coding guidelines before starting development?▼

To apply project-specific coding guidelines before development, this Skill reads spec indexes and Pre-Development Checklists from the .trellis/spec/ directory to inject relevant standards into your current task.

What are pre-development checklists and how do they enforce coding conventions?▼

Pre-Development Checklists map project-specific standards to your current task by linking to individual guideline files like error-handling.md and conventions.md, ensuring consistent coding conventions across all packages.

How do I ensure consistent coding standards across multiple packages in a monorepo?▼

You ensure consistent coding standards across multiple packages by reading shared thinking guides in .trellis/spec/guides and applying organizational best practices discovered through the trellis spec index before implementation begins.

Can I use this to inject error handling and mock strategies before writing code?▼

Yes, you can inject error handling and mock strategies before writing code by inspecting individual guideline files such as error-handling.md and mock-strategies.md linked within the .trellis/spec/ directory structure.

Do I need a .trellis/spec/ directory to run the pre-development workflow?▼

Yes, you need a .trellis/spec/ directory containing spec indexes, Pre-Development Checklists, and guide files to run the pre-development workflow and establish project coding standards.

What is the best way to discover organizational best practices before coding a new feature?▼

The best way to discover organizational best practices before coding is reading shared guides within .trellis/spec/guides and mapping applicable specs from the trellis index to align with project requirements.
