Where does the skill save the generated documentation?

All documents are stored in the '.specs/' directory with a standardized numbering system (e.g., .specs/001-project-name/) for easy version control and retrieval.

Can I use this for existing projects?

Absolutely. You can use this skill to document existing architectures or to plan new features within an established codebase to maintain consistency.

Does this skill handle API and database design?

Yes, it includes dedicated sections for technical specifications, including API endpoints, methods, data models, and the chosen technology stack.

Why are system diagrams mandatory in this skill?

System diagrams, specifically state machines and data flow maps, are required to ensure all logic paths and edge cases are visualized before any code is written, preventing architectural errors.

Aprendizaje y Documentación

Generates comprehensive, diagram-rich system design documentation to standardize project architecture and implementation plans.

The Design Doc Architect skill automates the creation of professional technical documentation by guiding developers through a structured discovery process. It ensures every project begins with a robust foundation by mandating ASCII-based system diagrams, including state machines and data flows, to visualize logic and prevent implementation gaps. By covering everything from API design and data modeling to risk management and success KPIs, this skill helps teams maintain high architectural standards and clear communication across the development lifecycle.
