What problem does it solve?
This Skill automates the XDDP Step 04 (Specout) process, which is critical for identifying ripple effects in complex, multi-repository systems. It prevents silent production failures by ensuring every dependency and call chain is thoroughly examined and documented.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Automated Ripple Analysis: Performs Breadth-First Search (BFS) discovery to map dependencies across repositories.
- Documentation Synthesis: Automatically generates Specification Out (SPO) documents, including structural, sequence, and data flow diagrams.
- CRS Integration: Updates Change Requirement Specifications (CRS) and regenerates Excel artifacts based on discovery findings.
- Use Case: When a change is requested for a core module, use this Skill to identify all affected downstream services, generate the necessary impact documentation, and keep the project's requirement specifications in sync.
Quick Start
Use the xddp.04.specout skill to perform a ripple effect analysis for the change request REQ-2026-001.
