System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the common failure mode of AI coding agents writing code without a clear understanding of requirements, leading to inconsistent, incorrect, or duplicated logic. It enforces a structured approach to defining system behavior before implementation.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Mandatory Specification: Ensures that no implementation code is written without a prior, approved behavior specification.
  • Structured Specification Document: Provides a template for defining inputs, outputs, constraints, edge cases, and acceptance criteria.
  • Use Case: When building a new API endpoint, this Skill ensures a detailed specification is created and approved, covering all request parameters, response formats, error conditions, and validation rules before any code is written.

Quick Start

Use the specification-first skill to create a behavior specification for the new user authentication module.
