What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the common issue of implementing features based on unclear or incomplete requirements, leading to wasted effort and incorrect implementations. It ensures clarity and alignment before any code is written.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Requirement Clarification: Guides users on when and how to write specifications for new features.
• Ambiguity Resolution: Provides a structured approach to asking clarifying questions one at a time.
• Traceability: Ensures code is directly linked to its specification for maintainability.
• Use Case: When starting a complex new feature with multiple potential approaches, use this skill to document the exact requirements, inputs, outputs, and edge cases before writing any code, ensuring everyone is aligned on the desired outcome.
