FAQPage Schema

How do I create a tech steering document for my software project?▼

To create a tech steering document, you need to define your stack, architecture patterns, constraints, and ADRs. The skill generates a canonical TECH.md file that serves as a single source of truth for technical standards and decision records.

What should be included in an architecture decision record (ADR) file?▼

An architecture decision record (ADR) file should include technical decisions regarding your stack, architecture patterns, and constraints. The generated TECH.md document captures these records to align engineering teams on specific architectural choices.

How do I document my tech stack and technical guidelines for team onboarding?▼

Documenting your tech stack and guidelines requires a living TECH.md file that captures architecture patterns, constraints, and ADRs. This provides a single source of truth for technical standards to successfully onboard new engineers.

What is the best way to maintain a living TECH.md for software architecture decisions?▼

The best way to maintain a living TECH.md is to refine it continuously using a structured steering doc process. This ensures your stack, architecture patterns, and constraints remain aligned with current engineering standards.

Can I refine an existing technical guidelines document without rewriting it from scratch?▼

Yes, you can refine an existing technical guidelines document by applying the steering doc process to your current TECH.md. This updates the stack, architecture patterns, and ADRs while maintaining the original structure.
