SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It helps you quickly discover which Claude Code skill best matches where your work is in the engineering workflow, so you can apply the correct guardrailed process instead of improvising.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Skill discovery by development phase: Routes you to the right workflow based on whether you need refinement, a spec, planning, implementation, verification, review, security/performance checks, or shipping.
  • Consistent non-negotiable operating behaviors: Enforces behaviors like surfacing assumptions, managing confusion, pushing back on bad ideas, enforcing simplicity, and verifying outcomes.
  • Composable lifecycle flow: Supports chaining multiple skills (e.g., from idea refinement through shipping) for end-to-end feature work.

FAQPage Schema
How do I find the right workflow skill for a specific engineering phase?

Skill discovery by development phase routes you to the correct workflow based on your current task, matching phases like ideation, spec creation, planning, implementation, verification, or code review to the appropriate guardrailed process.

How do I manage code review and verification across an incremental implementation workflow?

You can chain multiple workflow skills together to support end-to-end feature work, flowing from idea refinement through incremental implementation, evidence-based verification, and code review for a composable lifecycle flow.

How do I enforce scope discipline and surface assumptions during software planning?

Consistent non-negotiable operating behaviors enforce scope discipline by surfacing assumptions, managing confusion, pushing back on bad ideas, and enforcing simplicity throughout the selected engineering workflow.

Can I use workflow routing for deployment and performance optimization scenarios?

Workflow routing applies to deployment scenarios and performance optimization, mapping your specific engineering phase to the correct guardrailed process instead of improvising your implementation approach.

What is the best way to select an agent skill for spec creation and hardening tasks?

Selecting an agent skill for spec creation and hardening requires phase-to-skill mapping to identify the correct workflow, ensuring evidence-based verification and assumption surfacing are applied to your specific engineering task.
