From bc8d761bfaa4702759e12c255b17f891729681b2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: jiangnan <1394485448@qq.com> Date: Tue, 24 Mar 2026 08:30:20 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] =?UTF-8?q?feat:=20add=20/feature-scope=20skill=20?= =?UTF-8?q?=E2=80=94=20guided=20scoping=20before=20implementation?= MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Bridges the gap between /office-hours (idea validation) and /plan-eng-review (architecture). Five phases: 1. Context gathering — reads design docs, TODOS, codebase 2. Goal clarification — 5 forcing questions (who, done, simplest, deferred, touchpoints) 3. Scope definition — acceptance criteria, deferred items, risks 4. Implementation slices — ordered, independently shippable PRs 5. Save & handoff — persists to ~/.gstack/projects/$SLUG/ Hard gate: produces a scoping doc, not code.
