How does this skill improve software testing?

It ensures every requirement includes specific, measurable acceptance criteria (Given/When/Then) that can be directly converted into automated test cases or manual QA scripts.

Can I use this for agile project management?

Yes, it includes specialized support for Epic, Feature, and User Story levels, specifically following the INVEST framework to ensure stories are ready for sprint planning.

Does it support formal documentation standards?

Yes, it provides the 'Shall' pattern for formal requirements, making it suitable for enterprise-grade documentation and regulatory compliance where mandatory vs. optional features must be clear.

What are 'ambiguity markers' in requirements?

These are subjective terms like 'fast', 'user-friendly', or 'secure' that are difficult to test. This skill identifies these words and prompts you to provide specific metrics instead.

生产力与工作流

Generates clear, testable, and unambiguous software requirements using industry-standard frameworks like INVEST and Gherkin.

关于

Requirement Writing Patterns equips Claude with a specialized framework for drafting high-quality technical documentation and specifications. It helps users transform vague ideas into actionable user stories, formal 'shall' statements, and Given/When/Then acceptance criteria. By identifying ambiguity markers and enforcing consistent identifiers, this skill reduces implementation cycles and ensures that developers and stakeholders have a shared, measurable understanding of system behavior.
