What this skill does
Feature Design Assistant Help turn ideas into fully formed designs and specs through structured information gathering and collaborative validation. Announce at start: "I'm using the feature-design-assistant skill to design this feature." Phase 1: Context Discovery First, explore the codebase to understand: Project structure and tech stack Existing patterns and conventions Related features or modules Recent changes in relevant areas Phase 2: Structured Information Gathering Use AskUserQuestion to batch collect information efficiently. Each call can ask up to 4 questions. Round 1: Core Requirements (4 questions) Round 2: Technical Requirements (4 questions) Round 3: Integration & Dependencies (4 questions) Round 4: Clarifying Questions (Context-Dependent) Based on previous answers, ask follow-up questions. Examples: If UI layer selected: If High Security selected: Phase 3: Approach Exploration After gathering requirements, propose 2-3 approaches: Use AskUserQuestion to confirm approach: Phase 4: Design Presentation Present design in sections (300-500 words each), validate after each: 1. Architecture Overview - High-level structure 2. Data Model - Entities, relationships, schema 3. API Design - Endpoints, request/response 4. Component Design - Internal modules, interfaces 5. Error Handling - Error cases, recovery strategies 6. …
