SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Rough ideas and vague feature requests often lack the clarity needed for implementation, leading to misaligned expectations and rework. This Skill turns an unstructured idea into a concrete, agreed-upon execution plan through short, focused interview rounds. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Codebase-First Inspection: Examines the relevant project files and documentation before asking questions, avoiding redundant inquiries. - Iterative Interview Rounds: Asks at most three focused questions per round covering scope, behavior, constraints, tradeoffs, integration points, risks, and success criteria, each with a recommended default answer. - Structured Completion Summary: Delivers agreed decisions, remaining open questions, a recommended implementation approach, and the next step without writing any code. - Use Case: Before building a new API endpoint, use this Skill to clarify authentication requirements, error handling behavior, and integration points so the implementation starts from a settled plan. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to interview you about your rough feature idea and turn it into an actionable implementation plan.

FAQPage Schema
How do I turn a rough feature idea into an implementation plan?▼

Start a planning interview where the assistant inspects your codebase first, then asks short rounds of focused questions about scope, behavior, and constraints. Each question includes a recommended default answer, and the process ends with a structured summary of decisions and next steps.

What kinds of questions does a planning interview cover?▼

Questions focus on scope, behavior, constraints, tradeoffs, integration points, risks, and success criteria. At most three questions are asked per round, each paired with a recommended answer and a brief rationale.

Does the planning interview write any code?▼

No, the Skill explicitly does not implement anything. Its only output is a clarified plan containing agreed decisions, open questions, a recommended implementation approach, and the next step.

When should I use a planning interview instead of coding directly?▼

Use it when requirements are ambiguous, multiple design tradeoffs exist, or integration points are unclear. It is less useful for trivial, well-understood tasks where the implementation path is already obvious.

How many questions are asked in each interview round?▼

At most three focused questions per round. Prerequisite decisions are resolved before dependent ones, and the assistant waits for your response before continuing to the next round.
