SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill helps engineering teams and agent-driven assistants identify the correct development-phase workflow for a given task, preventing wasted effort, misapplied processes, and rework by routing work to the appropriate, verifiable skill.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Skill discovery and routing: Map incoming tasks to specific engineering skills such as idea-refine, spec-driven-development, incremental-implementation, test-driven-development, and shipping-and-launch.
  • Core operating behaviors: Enforce explicit assumption surfacing, active confusion management, scope discipline, and mandatory verification steps before completing work.
  • Lifecycle sequencing: Provide an ordered sequence of skills for end-to-end feature delivery and lightweight sequences for focused tasks like bug fixes or reviews.
  • Failure mode avoidance: Highlight common failure patterns and require concrete tradeoffs and validations to reduce downstream defects.

Quick Start

Ask the agent to analyze the task description and recommend the single most appropriate engineering skill and the next verifiable step.

FAQPage Schema
How do I route software engineering tasks to the correct workflow?

Route software engineering tasks by mapping incoming descriptions to specific workflow skills like idea-refine or test-driven-development, preventing misapplied processes. This skill provides deterministic discovery to identify the single most appropriate engineering workflow for your task.

What is the best way to sequence engineering workflows for feature delivery?

The best way to sequence engineering workflows for feature delivery is using lifecycle sequencing. This skill provides an ordered sequence of engineering skills for end-to-end delivery and lightweight sequences for focused tasks like bug fixes or code reviews.

How do you manage assumptions and confusion during the engineering process?

Manage assumptions and confusion during the engineering process by enforcing explicit assumption surfacing and active confusion management. This skill requires these core operating behaviors alongside scope discipline to ensure reproducible, verifiable outcomes.

When do I need workflow discovery for software engineering tasks?

You need workflow discovery for software engineering tasks when preventing wasted effort and rework is critical. It applies to scenarios including idea refinement, spec-driven development, task breakdown, implementation, testing, code review, and deployment sequencing.

How can I avoid failure modes and defects in engineering task routing?

Avoid failure modes and defects in engineering task routing by highlighting common failure patterns and requiring concrete tradeoffs and validations. This skill enforces mandatory verification steps before completing work to reduce downstream defects.
