| description | Creates a use-case description page under guidance_layer/website/content/docs/use-cases/ following the established GAIK format (business layer → strategy → no-code → code-based → components → evaluation → resources). Accepts user-provided context and marks any missing sections as Coming Soon. Updates meta.json to register the new page. |

Create Use-Case Description
Generates a use-case documentation page under guidance_layer/website/content/docs/use-cases/ following the structure and style established by incident-reporting.mdx (gold-standard reference — read it before generating any content).
Requires user-provided context — the user supplies the use-case details (business value, workflow, components, example output, demo link). This skill structures and formats that content into a properly formatted MDX page. It does not invent content beyond what the user provides.
Handles both new pages and stub promotion — if a Coming Soon stub already exists for this use case, it promotes it to a full page.
What this skill creates
| File | Action |
|---|
guidance_layer/website/content/docs/use-cases/{slug}.mdx | Create (new) or promote (stub → full) |
guidance_layer/website/content/docs/use-cases/meta.json | Update if slug not yet registered |
Workflow
Phase 1 — Context Parsing
- Read
incident-reporting.mdx — the gold-standard reference. Understand its exact structure, heading names, value-type format, diagram style, step format, and evaluation link format before generating anything.
- Derive the page slug from the use-case name (lowercase, hyphens, e.g.
construction-site-diary-creation).
- Check whether a
.mdx file already exists for this slug:
- Fully documented → warn the user and ask for explicit confirmation before overwriting.
- Stub → proceed; the stub will be replaced.
- Does not exist → create new.
- Map the user-provided context against the required and optional sections defined in
references/mdx-template.md.
- For each section where no context was provided, ask:
"No content for [Section Name]. Supply it now, or mark it Coming Soon?"
- User supplies → incorporate before generating.
- User skips → section gets
<Callout type="warn">**Coming Soon:** [one-sentence placeholder]</Callout>
- Ask once: "Is there a live demo link to include?"
- If yes → add
<Callout type="info"> with the link near the end of the Software Module section, matching the incident-reporting pattern.
Phase 2 — Outline
Present a section-by-section status table before writing anything:
Section Status
────────────────────────────────────────── ──────────
Frontmatter + H1 heading ✅
Intro paragraph ✅ / Coming Soon
Business layer ✅ / Coming Soon
Strategy layer ✅ / Coming Soon
Implementation — No-Code ✅ / Coming Soon
(Structure A: single asset) or
(Structure B: Prompt-based + Claude Skill)
Implementation — Code-Based (diagram) ✅ / Coming Soon
Software Components (N GAIK components) ✅ / Coming Soon
Downstream tasks subsection ✅ / omit
Defining What to Extract ✅ / omit
Software Module (diagram + outputs) ✅ / Coming Soon / omit
Adaptable to Other Domains ✅ / Coming Soon
Evaluation Methods ✅ / Coming Soon
Related Resources ✅
meta.json update / no change needed
Phase 3 — Plan Review (never skip)
Present the outline to the user and wait for explicit approval before writing any files. Adjust based on feedback.
Phase 4 — Generate Content
Run both sub-steps in order. Do not commit.
4a — MDX Page
Follow references/mdx-template.md for the exact section order, heading names, and formatting rules. All diagrams follow references/mermaid-guide.md.
Opening (before first H2):
---
title: {Use Case Display Name}
description: {One-sentence description}
---
# {Use Case Display Name} Generic Use Case (Cross-Cutting Use Case)
{1–2 sentence business context intro.}
The H1 heading always ends with "Generic Use Case (Cross-Cutting Use Case)".
Business layer (## Business layer – use case specification):
- Opening paragraph describing what the use case covers and who the users are
- Bullet list: "Concrete example fragments reflected in the use case design include:" — 3–5 bullets describing the scenario
- Closing sentence explaining what the canvas provides
- Canvas image reference:
 — if image provided
- PowerPoint download link — if provided
Strategy layer (## Strategy layer – value evaluation and monitoring):
Implementation — No-Code (## Implementation layer using No-Code):
This section can take two different structures depending on what no-code assets exist for the use case.
Structure A — Single asset (one Claude Skill or one set of prompt templates):
- Opening paragraph
- Numbered list of 1–3 GitHub asset links (prompt templates, agent skills)
- Explanation of what the no-code assets do
- "What the business user sets up (once):" — prose + bullet list
- "What happens in daily work:" — numbered steps with bold
**Step N – description** headers and nested bullets
- "Example of what the business gets out:" — intro sentence + structured bullet list of output fields
- Closing 4-bullet list: easy to paste / safe to store / reliable for analytics / suitable for audits
Structure B — Two co-existing approaches (prompt-based AND Claude Skill):
- Opening paragraph introducing both approaches and when to use each
### Prompt-based approach subsection — describe the prompt(s) briefly, what they do, GitHub link
### Claude Skill subsection — brief introduction (2–4 sentences) covering what it does, when to prefer it over the prompt-based approach, and GitHub link; do not include detailed setup steps or daily workflow — link to the documentation instead
- Use "Claude Skill" as the term — not "Claude Desktop agent skill", not "Claude Desktop Skill"
Use Structure B when both implementation_layer/no-code-assets/prompts/ and implementation_layer/no-code-assets/agent-skills/ assets exist for the use case. Use Structure A for all other cases.
Implementation — Code-Based (## Implementation Layer Using Code-Based Method.):
- Note: heading ends with a period — match exactly
- 1–2 sentence overview naming the GAIK components used and noting any downstream (non-GenAI) steps
flowchart LR Mermaid diagram with subgraph for the GAIK extraction pipeline — follow references/mermaid-guide.md diagram style (emojis, stroke colors, subgraph pattern)
- If the pipeline output feeds into downstream org-specific steps (pricing, ERP, document generation), add a downstream node after the GAIK output in the diagram, styled yellow (
fill:#fefce8) or green (fill:#dcfce7), and labelled clearly as downstream/org-specific
--- divider after this section
Software Components (## Software Components):
- Only list actual GAIK software components — i.e. classes/modules from
implementation_layer/src/gaik/software_components/ or software_modules/. Do NOT list business-specific logic (pricing calculators, PDF renderers, ERP connectors) as software components — these belong in the "Downstream tasks" subsection instead.
- One
### per component, numbered: ### 1. ComponentName
- Each component gets:
- 2–3 sentence description
flowchart LR or flowchart TD Mermaid diagram with subgraph — use emojis and stroke colors
- GitHub source link:
> 📁 [\path/to/component/`](https://github.com/GAIK-project/gaik-toolkit/tree/main/...)`
--- divider after each component
Downstream tasks (### Downstream tasks) (add when the use case involves post-extraction non-GenAI steps):
- Add this unnumbered subsection after the last software component when the pipeline output feeds into business-specific or conventional (non-AI) processing steps
- Describe what happens to the structured output: price calculation, document generation, ERP integration, database storage, etc.
- Clarify that these steps are outside the GenAI pipeline and may require organisation-specific customisation
- Do NOT add a diagram for downstream tasks — prose only
Defining What to Extract (## Defining What to Extract: User Requirements) (include when the use case involves schema-guided extraction with user-defined fields; omit for other use cases):
- 1–2 sentence intro explaining that fields are specified in plain language
- Plain-text code block showing the field specification in the exact format used in
incident-reporting.mdx (field name + optional constraint in brackets, followed by output rules)
- Output rules as a bullet list inside the code block
Software Module (## Software Module: {ModuleName}) (if a combined GAIK module is used):
- 1–2 sentence description
flowchart TD Mermaid diagram with nested subgraphs (Step 1, Step 2 pattern) — follow incident-reporting pattern
- Example output: if screenshot images are available, use side-by-side JSX:
<p>
<img src="/gaik-toolkit/images/image1.png" alt="..." style={{ width: "45%", height: "auto", display: "inline-block" }} />
<img src="/gaik-toolkit/images/image2.png" alt="..." style={{ width: "45%", height: "auto", display: "inline-block" }} />
</p>
- GitHub module and examples links with
📁 prefix
- Demo link as inline text: "To test ... please visit the GAIK demo link"
--- divider after this section
Adaptable to Other Domains (## Adaptable to Other Domains):
- 1 sentence framing
- Single bullet line listing 3–5 domains, comma-separated
--- divider after
Evaluation Methods (## Evaluation Methods):
- Opening sentence: "The quality of this use case is evaluated by assessing each software component independently:"
- One
### per evaluator. Each gets:
--- divider after
Related Resources (## Related Resources):
- 2-column Markdown table —
| Resource | Link | — NOT 3 columns
- List all key components, modules, examples, canvas, and implementation layer overview
General rules:
--- horizontal dividers between all major H2 sections
- Missing sections →
<Callout type="warn">**Coming Soon:** [placeholder]</Callout>
4b — Update meta.json
If the slug is not already in guidance_layer/website/content/docs/use-cases/meta.json, insert it in the pages array at the appropriate position.
Phase 5 — Verification Summary
After writing, print:
Files created / modified:
✓ guidance_layer/website/content/docs/use-cases/{slug}.mdx (N lines)
✓ guidance_layer/website/content/docs/use-cases/meta.json (updated / unchanged)
Sections marked Coming Soon: [list or "none"]
To verify:
cd guidance_layer/website && pnpm dev
→ /use-cases/{slug} (confirm renders, all Mermaid diagrams visible)
Hard Rules
- Never skip Phase 3. Always wait for explicit approval before writing any files.
- Never overwrite a fully-documented page without explicit user confirmation.
meta.json slug must exactly match the .mdx filename (minus .mdx). A mismatch silently breaks sidebar navigation.
<Callout type="warn"> only for Coming Soon sections. Use <Callout type="info"> for demo links and helpful tips.
- Do not commit. Leave all changes uncommitted for user review.
- Do not fabricate content. Only generate diagrams, code, and prose derivable from the user-provided context. Generic placeholders must be clearly marked.
- Mermaid must use
flowchart keyword (not graph). Use subgraphs, emojis in labels, and stroke: colors per references/mermaid-guide.md. Test mentally that all node IDs are unique and subgraph blocks are closed.
- H1 heading always ends with "Generic Use Case (Cross-Cutting Use Case)".
- Related Resources table is 2 columns (
Resource | Link), not 3.
- Use cases must be generic. Never mention a specific company name, organization name, client name, or proprietary product name. If the user's context references a named organization, replace it with a generic description (e.g. "a manufacturing company", "an enterprise client", "a partner organization"). This applies to all sections.
