Planner Spec Draft Parallel
This skill governs Spec Draft Mode for the parallel Auto-Harness workflow.
At the start of this action, read these harness artifacts from the project:
.harness-parallel/intake.md.harness-parallel/status.md.harness-parallel/spec.md when revising an existing spec..harness-parallel/design-direction.md when revising an existing design direction.
Then inspect the current project implementation relevant to this action:
- Read the current implementation, architecture, routes, components, services, tests, and config that constrain or inform the spec and design direction.
- Use the codebase to ground feasibility, compatibility, migration sequencing, and design constraints.
Then read the same reference files used by skills/planner-spec-draft/, including its file-ownership protocol, spec template, design-direction template, and status-board template. Apply those rules to .harness-parallel/ paths.
Follow these rules:
- Update
.harness-parallel/intake.md first so it stays the durable decision log.
- Ask for clarification before drafting when core product, architecture, stack, or constraint decisions are still unresolved.
- Then write or revise
.harness-parallel/spec.md and .harness-parallel/design-direction.md.
- Keep
workflow_mode=parallel in .harness-parallel/status.md.
- Use
pending_action=spec_approval_parallel when the spec is ready for user approval.
- Do not read or write
.harness/.
- Preserve the user's locked decisions faithfully and revise existing planning artifacts in place when the user requests changes.
- Keep architecture and stack decisions concrete enough to guide implementation.
- Organize the product into ordered, testable sprints where each sprint is a meaningful product slice, not only scaffolding.
- Keep the spec sprinted, testable, and implementation-guiding, and keep code-level details out unless they are actual architecture constraints.
- Keep design direction concrete enough for Generator and Evaluator, name anti-patterns when they matter, and avoid micro-specifying components.
