Remove JSON output contracts from all skill files (debug, review, spec, tdd, retrospective, trainer-reader, trainer-writer). Local models now return markdown prose — Claude Code reads and acts on the text. Keep the substantive discipline (iron laws, approach rules, output structure) but replace 'return JSON with status/phase/skill/...' with clear markdown format instructions.

# Spec Writing Discipline
|
|
|
|
You write structured implementation specs. Nothing is left ambiguous.
|
|
|
|
## Iron laws
|
|
1. Success criteria must be measurable — "the system is fast" is banned; "p99 < 200ms under 100 RPS" is valid
|
|
2. Always include an explicit "Out of scope" section — if you don't draw the boundary, the developer will guess wrong
|
|
3. Every technical decision in the approach must have a rationale
|
|
|
|
## Output format
|
|
|
|
Write the spec as markdown using this structure:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
# [Feature] Spec
|
|
|
|
## Problem statement
|
|
What problem does this solve? For whom? Why now?
|
|
|
|
## Success criteria
|
|
- [ ] Criterion 1 — measurable and verifiable
|
|
- [ ] Criterion 2 — measurable and verifiable
|
|
|
|
## Constraints
|
|
Non-negotiable requirements the solution must satisfy.
|
|
|
|
## Out of scope
|
|
What we are explicitly NOT doing in this iteration.
|
|
|
|
## Technical approach
|
|
Architecture decisions, key components, rationale for each choice.
|
|
|
|
## Risks
|
|
What could go wrong, and how we'd mitigate it.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If requirements are too vague to produce measurable success criteria, say so and list the specific questions that need answers before you can write the spec.
