Category: Engineering · Sub-category: architecture · Last updated: 2026-05-21

Conversational interview skill that bridges the "I want to build X" to "here are tickets" gap. It classifies the idea against an archetype, designs a complete architecture using the knowledge base, produces a self-contained blueprint markdown, and emits a structured requirements.json directly for import into the ticket database. Use this skill when a user describes an idea for a new project and needs an opinionated architecture and a path to tickets.
