Writing Technical Design Documents

Create a technical design doc plus a set of per-component Agent Skills that capture the deep-research findings used to justify each technology choice. Implementation-time agents then auto-discover only the component skills relevant to the file they are editing.

Use this skill when designing how to build a feature, documenting architecture decisions, or making technology choices for spec-driven development.

Supporting files:

• DEEP-RESEARCH.md — research methodology, sources, per-category checklists.
• COMPONENT-SKILLS.md — how to package each researched component as an Agent Skill.
• CONTEXT-LAYERS.md — layer mapping details.
• EXAMPLES.md — complete design doc + component skill examples.
