SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It prevents structured execution documentation from drifting out of coherence when implementation changes structured execution state during delta work.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Phase sheet reconciliation: Updates task statuses, entrance/exit criteria, verification evidence, and current execution decisions/findings.
  • Artifact consistency across DE/IP/DR: Reconciles DE scope/risk/dependencies/open questions and DR design/rationale/assumptions when they change during execution.
  • Notes alignment without duplication: Ensures notes.md remains consistent as a lightweight execution log rather than a hidden structured-doc workflow.
  • Stop-and-consult safety guard: Calls /consult when doc changes imply a broader workflow or design shift than the active phase assumed.

Quick Start

Use the command "/update-delta-docs" when your execution changed a phase state, IP phase status, DE scope/risk/dependencies, or DR design intent for the current delta.

FAQPage Schema
How do I keep phase sheet and DE/IP/DR artefacts in sync during delta execution?▼

To keep phase sheet and DE/IP/DR artefacts in sync, reconcile execution state changes by updating task statuses, entrance/exit criteria, and verification evidence in the correct order without duplication.

What is documentation reconciliation for agentic workflows and when do I need it?▼

Documentation reconciliation for agentic workflows eliminates drift when implementation changes structured state, such as IP active phase transitions or updated verification evidence during delta execution.

How do I update phase task statuses and verification evidence without duplicating notes?▼

Update phase task statuses and verification evidence by reconciling the phase sheet while keeping notes.md aligned as a lightweight execution log, ensuring structured-doc updates avoid duplication.

Can I use spec-driven documentation updates when execution changes exceed active phase assumptions?▼

When execution changes exceed active phase assumptions, spec-driven documentation updates trigger a stop-and-consult safety guard by calling /consult to handle implied broader workflow or design shifts.

Does updating design rationales and DE scope during delta execution require a specific update order?▼

Updating design rationales and DE scope during delta execution requires applying updates to the correct artefacts in a required order to maintain consistency across DE, IP, and DR execution artefacts.

Why does my structured execution documentation drift out of coherence during phase management?▼

Structured execution documentation drifts out of coherence during phase management when implementation changes structured execution state without reconciling the active phase sheet and corresponding DE/IP/DR artefacts.
