technical-analysis-writer

# Technical Analysis Writer (per-file phase L + per-group phase M) LLM-driven authoring skill for the organization's **ATE — Analisi Tecnica** deliverable. For ONE source file (phase L) or ONE group (phase M) it produces a complete `technical-analysis.md` per requested language, then a deterministic pandoc step renders a sibling `technical-analysis.docx`. This is a **single-pass finalizer**: unlike the functional-analysis (phase F/G) and requirements (phase F) families, there are no per-section drafts. The consolidated narrative source is the already-authored `complete.md`, which the LLM reorganizes and rewrites into the technical-analysis template structure. `complete.md` is the **only** narrative input — the writer never reads `functional-analysis.md`. The SISBA tracciato catalog needed for the `trk-gestiti` section (§7 of the `ate-org-interfaccia` profile) is the deterministic `Record types (TRK)` block that phase E appends to `complete.md`; when that block is present the writer authors the per-TRK subsections from it instead of stamping the not-applicable marker. | Scope | Reads | Writes | |---------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------| | `per-file` (LLM) | `docs/_shared/<file>/_ta-bundles/_finalize.bundle.md` (embeds `docs/en/<file>/complete.md`) | `docs/<lang>/<file>/technical-analysis.md` per language | | `per-group` (LLM) | `docs/_shared/_groups/<gid>/_ta-group-bundles/_finalize.bundle.md` (embeds `docs/en/_groups/<gid>/complete.md`) | `docs/<lang>/_groups/<gid>/technical-analysis.md` per language | Bundles are produced deterministically by [scripts/assemble-inputs.py](./scripts/assemble-inputs.py) (per-file) and [scripts/assemble-group-inputs.py](./scripts/assemble-group-inputs.py) (per-group). The LLM call that fills the template is invoked by the `technical-analysis-writer` agent. DOCX export is handled by the phase driver via [`scripts/lib/Convert-MdToDocx.ps1`](../../../scripts/lib/Convert-MdToDocx.ps1) (pandoc, plain default styling). ## When to Use - The user asks to "write the technical analysis", "produce the ATE document", "generate analisi tecnica for DEMO100", "co-author EN + IT ATE", "export the technical analysis to Word", "regenerate technical-analysis.md". - A per-file finalize bundle exists at `docs/_shared/<file>/_ta-bundles/_finalize.bundle.md`, or a per-group bundle at `docs/_shared/_groups/<gid>/_ta-group-bundles/_finalize.bundle.md`. Do **not** use this skill for: - phase F functional analysis ([`functional-analysis-writer`](../functional-analysis-writer/SKILL.md)), - phase F requirements ([`requirements-writer`](../requirements-writer/SKILL.md)), - phase C per-section docs ([`section-doc-writer`](../section-doc-writer/SKILL.md)), - chunking ([`cobol-chunking`](../cobol-chunking/SKILL.md)), - facts extraction ([`cobol-facts-extraction`](../cobol-facts-extraction/SKILL.md)), - QA review of the produced ATE ([`qa-reviewer`](../qa-reviewer/SKILL.md)), - portal aggregation across files (phase N). ## Profile resolution The active profile is resolved deterministically by [`scripts/lib/ta_profile_resolver.py`](../../../scripts/lib/ta_profile_resolver.py) from `config/templates/docs/technical-analysis/`: | Source | Resolved profile | |-----------------------------------------|----------------------------------| | `.cpy` / copybook, `.bms` / BMS mapset | **SKIP** (tombstoned, no ATE) | | `.jcl` / `.prc` | `ate-org-interfaccia` | | `.cbl` / `.cob` with CICS/BMS usage | `ate-org-applicazione` | | `.cbl` / `.cob` (batch) | `ate-org-interfaccia` | | otherwise | `default` | Group rule (`resolve_for_group`): any BMS member → `ate-org-applicazione`; any JCL/PRC member → `ate-org-interfaccia`; else → `default`. A workspace override key `technical_analysis_profile` in `sources.yaml` takes precedence. ## Output Contract For each language `<lang>` in `bundle.languages` (EN first, then every target): ``` docs/<lang>/<file>/technical-analysis.md # per-file (phase L) docs/<lang>/_groups/<group_id>/technical-analysis.md # per-group (phase M) ``` with a sibling `technical-analysis.docx` produced by the phase driver. Each `technical-analysis.md` MUST: - Begin with the YAML front-matter filled from the bundle's `front_matter_values`. - Author every section declared under the bundle's `## Template` / `ordered_sections` block, in profile order, **rewriting** the embedded `complete.md` narrative into the template shape — never copying `complete.md` verbatim and never inventing facts with no anchor in the narrative. - Honour `section.required` / `optional_marker`: optional sections with insufficient evidence become the heading + a single paragraph containing the `optional_marker` verbatim. - Populate every declared table column from the embedded narrative. Empty cells use `_None._` (markdown italic) — never `N/A`, `TBD`, or `???`. - Cite via Pandoc footnote form `[^src-N]` and consolidate into ONE `## Sources` block at the bottom. Per-group docs cite per-file documents, not source lines. Inline `[FILE:Lx-Ly]` tags are forbidden. - Per-group: member order MUST match `grouping.yaml` order verbatim. - Style COBOL/JCL identifiers per `profile.identifier_lock_regex`, wrapped in backticks. - Co-author EN + every target language in the SAME LLM call; non-EN editions mirror EN structurally 1:1 (heading count, table row count, `[^src-N]` ids, front-matter keys). ## Pipeline wiring | Phase | Scope | Runs in | Depends on | Driver | |-------|-----------|----------------|------------|-------------------------------------------------------------| | **L** | per-file | per-file-loop | G | [`scripts/phases/phase-L-technical-analysis.ps1`](../../../scripts/phases/phase-L-technical-analysis.ps1) | | **M** | per-group | workspace | I, L | [`scripts/phases/phase-M-group-technical-analysis.ps1`](../../../scripts/phases/phase-M-group-technical-analysis.ps1) | Each phase runs three steps: **stage** (deterministic bundle packaging) → **dispatch** (Copilot CLI single-pass authoring) → **docx** (pandoc export). ### Per-file (phase L) ```powershell # 1. stage the finalize bundle pwsh -File .github/skills/technical-analysis-writer/scripts/ta_stage_batch.ps1 ` -Paths repos/sample1/COBOL/*.CBL -Languages en # 2. dispatch the single-pass finalizer pwsh -File scripts/dispatchers/run-docs-ta-finalize-batch.ps1 ` -Paths repos/sample1/COBOL/*.CBL -Languages en # (3. DOCX export is run automatically by the phase driver) pwsh -File scripts/phases/phase-L-technical-analysis.ps1 ` -Paths repos/sample1/COBOL/*.CBL -Languages en ``` ### Per-group (phase M) ```powershell pwsh -File scripts/phases/phase-M-group-technical-analysis.ps1 ` -Manifest config/grouping.yaml -Languages en ``` ## DOCX export After the Markdown editions are authored, the phase driver dot-sources [`scripts/lib/Convert-MdToDocx.ps1`](../../../scripts/lib/Convert-MdToDocx.ps1) and converts each `technical-analysis.md` to a sibling `technical-analysis.docx` via `pandoc --from markdown --to docx`. No reference-doc is supplied, so pandoc applies its built-in default Word styling. The conversion is idempotent and skips files whose `.docx` is newer than the `.md` unless `-Force` is given. If pandoc is not on `PATH`, the DOCX step is skipped with a warning and the Markdown editions remain the deliverable. ## Failure modes - **Missing prereq.** Per-file requires `docs/en/<file>/complete.md` (phase E); per-group requires `docs/en/_groups/<gid>/complete.md` (phase I). The stager exits 4 and the dispatch records `missing-bundle`. - **Copybook / BMS.** The stager writes `_skipped.json` and no ATE is produced. - **pandoc absent.** DOCX step is skipped; Markdown is complete. - **Empty grouping.yaml.** Phase M is a no-op (exit 0).
