Can I skip a documentation phase if it's already defined elsewhere?

Yes, the skill is designed to handle skipped phases (e.g., if requirements are already in JIRA), allowing you to record the decision and proceed to the next stage.

How does it track project decisions?

It maintains a README.md file in each specification directory that logs the date, decision made, and the rationale, ensuring a clear audit trail of the project's evolution.

Does it integrate with other documentation skills?

Absolutely. It acts as an orchestrator that initializes the environment and then hands off detailed content creation to specific skills for PRDs, SDDs, or Plans.

What documentation phases does this skill support?

The skill manages the standard development workflow across Product Requirements (PRD), Solution Design (SDD), and Implementation Plan (PLAN) phases.

Productividad y Flujo de Trabajo

Orchestrates the software specification lifecycle by managing document directories, tracking implementation decisions, and guiding transitions between PRD, SDD, and PLAN phases.

Acerca de

The Specification Workflow Manager provides a structured framework for managing technical specifications within Claude Code, ensuring consistency across the software development lifecycle. It automates the creation of versioned specification directories using auto-incrementing IDs and maintains a detailed decision log via README files to ensure traceability. By facilitating seamless transitions between Product Requirements Documents (PRD), Solution Design Documents (SDD), and Implementation Plans (PLAN), it serves as a central orchestrator that keeps project documentation organized and aligned with user decisions throughout the development process.
