Spec Workflow Activation Contract Use this first when The request is a new feature, multi-step product change, cross-module integration, or architecture/design task. Acceptance criteria are unclear and need to be made explicit before implementation. The work involves multiple files, user flows, database design, or UI design that needs staged confirmation. Read before writing code if You are unsure whether the task should go straight to coding or should first go through requirements, design, and task planning. The request mentions a new page, a new system, a redesign, a workflow, or a multi-module refactor. Then also read Frontend page or visual design work -> ../ui-design/SKILL.md (standalone fallback: https://cnb.cool/tencent/cloud/cloudbase/cloudbase-skills/-/git/raw/main/skills/cloudbase/references/ui-design/SKILL.md) Advanced data-model work -> ../data-model-creation/SKILL.md (standalone fallback: https://cnb.cool/tencent/cloud/cloudbase/cloudbase-skills/-/git/raw/main/skills/cloudbase/references/data-model-creation/SKILL.md) Do NOT use for Small bug fixes with clear scope. One-file documentation updates. Straightforward config changes. Tiny refactors where the user already gave exact implementation instructions. …
