SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

develop-design turns a one-sentence alpha feature idea into a complete ADR draft that downstream agents can implement, test, and document without guessing the schema, file scope, or required test coverage.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Produce an ADR proposal for an alpha feature: creates a structured ADR (including DSL surface and testing design) that defines how the feature should work.
  • Enforce AI-friendly schema and naming rules: ensures the proposed IR schema is JSON-serializable, uses TikZ-like field names (no cryptic abbreviations), and follows strict discriminated-union conventions via a checklist aligned to DESIGN.md.
  • Define a mandatory implementation contract: includes Level (red/yellow/green), a schema-change table, an explicit file scope whitelist, and a test-quadrant plan with at least 9 cases, plus declared dependencies on existing elements.

Quick Start

Ask an AI to act as the ADR drafter for your alpha feature, then require it to produce a Proposed ADR draft that includes the full implementation contract sections and an AI-friendly schema.

FAQPage Schema
How do I draft an AI-friendly ADR for schema design?▼

An AI-friendly ADR enforces a JSON-serializable IR schema with TikZ-like field names and discriminated-union conventions. It includes a hard implementation contract so downstream agents can implement the feature deterministically.

What is a test quadrant plan and how many cases do I need for an ADR?▼

A test quadrant plan is a mandatory validation matrix defined within an ADR. You need a minimum of 9 test cases in the quadrant to satisfy validation completeness before transitioning to implementation.

How do I translate TikZ gap analysis priorities into an ADR?▼

You translate TikZ gap analysis priorities into an ADR by mapping the semantics into a DSL surface and decision rationale. The ADR then defines the required schema changes and file scope whitelist.

Can I use an ADR to define file scope and implementation levels for AI agents?▼

Yes, an ADR defines an explicit file scope whitelist and assigns implementation Levels (red, yellow, green). This contract prevents AI agents from guessing boundaries during execution.

What are the limitations of using a hardcoded schema in an ADR for feature planning?▼

Without strict discriminated-union conventions, a schema limits multi-LLM evaluation handling. The ADR requires a JSON-serializable schema aligned to design checklists to ensure validation completeness.
