# Sparc Methodology Skill ## Purpose SPARC development workflow: Specification, Pseudocode, Architecture, Refinement, Completion. A structured approach for complex implementations that ensures thorough planning before coding. ## When to Trigger - new feature implementation - complex implementations - architectural changes - system redesign - integration work - unclear requirements ## When to Skip - simple bug fixes - documentation updates - configuration changes - well-defined small tasks - routine maintenance ## Commands ### Specification Phase Define requirements, acceptance criteria, and constraints ```bash npx @claude-flow/cli hooks route --task "specification: [requirements]" ``` **Example:** ```bash npx @claude-flow/cli hooks route --task "specification: user authentication with OAuth2, MFA, and session management" ``` ### Pseudocode Phase Write high-level pseudocode for the implementation ```bash npx @claude-flow/cli hooks route --task "pseudocode: [feature]" ``` **Example:** ```bash npx @claude-flow/cli hooks route --task "pseudocode: OAuth2 login flow with token refresh" ``` ### Architecture Phase Design system structure, interfaces, and dependencies ```bash npx @claude-flow/cli hooks route --task "architecture: [design]" ``` **Example:** ```bash npx @claude-flow/cli hooks route --task "architecture: auth module with service layer, repository, and API endpoints" ``` ### Refinement Phase Iterate on the design based on feedback ```bash npx @claude-flow/cli hooks route --task "refinement: [feedback]" ``` **Example:** ```bash npx @claude-flow/cli hooks route --task "refinement: add rate limiting and brute force protection" ``` ### Completion Phase Finalize implementation with tests and documentation ```bash npx @claude-flow/cli hooks route --task "completion: [final checks]" ``` **Example:** ```bash npx @claude-flow/cli hooks route --task "completion: verify all tests pass, update API docs, security review" ``` ### SPARC Coordinator Spawn SPARC coordinator agent ```bash npx @claude-flow/cli agent spawn --type sparc-coord --name sparc-lead ``` ## Scripts | Script | Path | Description | |--------|------|-------------| | `sparc-init` | `.agents/scripts/sparc-init.sh` | Initialize SPARC workflow for a new feature | | `sparc-review` | `.agents/scripts/sparc-review.sh` | Run SPARC phase review checklist | ## References | Document | Path | Description | |----------|------|-------------| | `SPARC Overview` | `docs/sparc.md` | Complete SPARC methodology guide | | `Phase Templates` | `docs/sparc-templates.md` | Templates for each SPARC phase | ## Best Practices 1. Check memory for existing patterns before starting 2. Use hierarchical topology for coordination 3. Store successful patterns after completion 4. Document any new learnings
