Specification Generation

Capabilities

Transforms requirements from PM interviews into structured technical specifications. Includes technology stack selection, system architecture, data models, API contracts, and architecture decision records (ADRs).

Tool Use Instructions

• Use **Read** to examine requirements documents and existing specs
• Use **Grep/Glob** to find related architectural patterns in the codebase
• Use **Write** to generate the technical specification document
• Use **Edit** to refine specs based on Architect feedback

Process Integration

• Used in `maestro-orchestrator.js` Phase 2-3 (Architect Review, Tech Spec)
• Maps to tasks: `maestro-pm-spec-generation`, `maestro-architect-tech-spec`
• Agents: Product Manager (requirements spec), Architect (technical spec)
• Iterates with Architect feedback loop until approved
• Outputs feed into `story-decomposition` skill
