What does the Task Onboarding skill do?

This skill validates that all necessary artifacts for a development task, such as PRDs and tech specs, are present. It generates a task summary and blocks work from starting if any critical information is missing.

How does this skill improve my workflow?

It prevents wasted effort on incomplete or poorly defined tasks by enforcing a 'requirements-first' approach. This reduces ambiguity, minimizes rework, and ensures you and Claude are aligned on the task scope from the start.

When should I use this skill?

Use this skill at the very beginning of any new development task, before you start analyzing the problem or writing any code. It ensures you have a complete and valid context to work from.

What key capabilities does it provide?

It generates a concise task summary, validates the presence of PRDs and tech specs, blocks premature work by listing missing items, clarifies task dependencies, and creates an initial context checkpoint for the task.

Productivity & Workflow

Ensures all required artifacts, such as PRDs and tech specs, are present before starting a development task.

About

Streamline your development workflow by automatically verifying that all necessary prerequisites are met before starting a new task. This skill acts as a gatekeeper, checking for essential artifacts like product requirement documents (PRDs), technical specifications, and task files. If any required information is missing, it pauses the process and clearly lists the gaps, ensuring developers have a complete and validated context to begin implementation efficiently and without ambiguity.

Key Features

Blocks task initiation and lists all missing requirements to prevent premature work.
Creates and logs an initial context checkpoint for the task.
Generates a concise task summary covering objectives, scope, and integrations.
Confirms the active task number and clarifies dependencies between related tasks.
0 GitHub stars
Validates the presence of critical artifacts like PRDs, tech specs, and task definitions.

Use Cases

Onboarding a developer to a new project or feature.
Auditing the readiness of a backlog item before moving it into a development sprint.
Kicking off a new development task to ensure all requirements are clear and available.
