SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Clarifies UP activity understanding by generating context-specific 5W2H questions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Generates 7 original, activity-specific 5W2H questions tailored to UP phases (vision, requirements, use-cases, sequence diagrams, etc.)
  • Produces a structured Q&A context to surface gaps, risks, and assumptions
  • Creates a compact artifact like 5W2H-[activity-name].md summarizing insights and open questions

Quick Start

Invoke the skill with /skill:up-5w2h [activity-name] to generate a tailored 5W2H question set and a summary artifact.

FAQPage Schema
What is the 5W2H framework for requirements analysis in the Unified Process?▼

The 5W2H framework for requirements analysis in the Unified Process clarifies activity understanding by generating seven context-specific questions covering Who, What, When, Where, Why, and How to surface gaps and assumptions across UP phases from inception to transition.

How do I generate 5W2H questions for a specific UP activity like use-case analysis?▼

To generate 5W2H questions for use-case analysis, invoke the skill with the target activity name. It produces a tailored seven-question set and a compact markdown summary artifact to guide your upfront analysis and surface open requirements.

Can I apply 5W2H analysis across all Unified Process phases from inception to transition?▼

Yes, you can apply 5W2H analysis across all Unified Process phases from inception to transition. The framework generates tailored questions for vision, requirements, use-cases, sequence diagrams, and conceptual models to enforce structured analysis.

What's the best way to document gaps and risks during UP requirements brainstorming?▼

The best way to document gaps and risks during UP requirements brainstorming is to generate a structured Q&A context using the 5W2H framework. It creates a compact markdown artifact summarizing insights and open questions for review.

Does this 5W2H question generation approach work for sequence diagram planning?▼

Yes, this 5W2H question generation approach works for sequence diagram planning by enforcing a structured seven-question framework tailored to that specific UP activity. It surfaces necessary assumptions and dependencies before diagram construction.
