What is the Technical Specification skill for Claude Code?

It is a specialized capability that helps developers automatically generate detailed software documentation, including architecture diagrams, requirements, and implementation plans.

How does this skill improve the development workflow?

By forcing the definition of P0 requirements, security risks, and testing strategies upfront, it reduces mid-sprint scope creep and ensures better alignment across engineering teams.

Can I use this for Architecture Decision Records (ADRs)?

Yes, the skill is specifically designed to help document system design choices and draft ADRs using industry-standard templates.

Does it include API and database design sections?

Absolutely. The templates provide dedicated sections for defining REST/GraphQL API contracts, request/response models, and SQL or NoSQL database schemas.

学習とドキュメンテーション

Generates comprehensive technical specifications and architecture decision records to streamline software project planning and system design.

概要

This skill empowers developers using Claude Code to create standardized, production-ready technical documentation covering every stage of the software lifecycle. By providing structured templates for functional requirements, API design, database schemas, and risk assessments, it ensures that features are well-planned and stakeholders are aligned before a single line of code is written. It is particularly useful for drafting Architecture Decision Records (ADRs), defining system boundaries, and establishing clear success criteria for complex engineering tasks.
