Individual skill
intent-driven-development
Turn ambiguous or high-impact product and engineering changes into scoped, verifiable acceptance criteria before or alongside implementation. Use when a user asks to clarify a feature, define acceptance criteria, de-risk a security/data/migration/integration change, prepare implementation requirements for another agent, or make a complex request testable. Do not trigger for trivial edits, straightforward fixes, active debugging, code review, or implementation requests whose acceptance conditions are already clear unless the user explicitly invokes this skill.

# Intent-Driven Development
Produce useful acceptance criteria without turning specification into ceremony. Inspect
available context first, expose genuine ambiguity, and choose verification methods that fit
the work and its risk.
## When to Activate
- User asks to clarify a feature, define acceptance criteria, or de-risk a change before implementation
- Request touches security, authentication, persistent data, migrations, external APIs, or compliance
- User wants to prepare a handoff artifact for another agent or team
- Request is ambiguous enough that the expected outcome is not yet observable or testable
- User explicitly invokes this skill with `/intent-driven-development`
