Separates the outcome a change must produce from the requirements proposed to reach it, records what the user excluded, and bands cost from structure. Use when a requirement enters a workflow, before design begins.
Separates the outcome a change must produce from the requirements proposed to reach it, records what the user excluded, and bands cost from structure. Use when a requirement enters a workflow, before design begins.
Source documentation, not instructions for this website. Review permissions before running any commands.
Requirements arrive bloated, ambiguous, or aimed at the wrong outcome. A capable model reconciles all three into a coherent plan and builds it faithfully — delivering exactly what was asked for when what was asked for was wrong.
This skill converges what to build. How to build it, and which documents the change requires, are settled after the what is.
| Field | Pass condition |
|---|---|
outcome | One observable result. A requirement that does not serve it is excess. |
requirements[] | Every build-relevant item labeled current-state or desired-future. |
nonGoals[] | Authored by the user, or the user stated there are none. |
cost | A band with the structural evidence that places it, plus the unknowns that remain. |
cost is a rough band, not the effort estimate a work plan schedules against; requirements cannot support person-days. Its unknowns carry more decision weight than its size.
Keep request signals classified as evaluation requests, speculative ideas, or prescribed mechanisms in active convergence context as judgment-only candidates. requirements[] and durable documents receive a candidate only after explicit user confirmation.
Each field carries a readiness label: ready, weak, or weak-but-explicit (weak, and the user agreed to leave it unresolved). Only the user sets weak-but-explicit. Requirements are converged when every applicable field is ready or weak-but-explicit.
Judgment rules per field: references/criteria.md.
Run the hearing after scope analysis has produced the facts needed to judge the convergence fields. The workflow using this skill owns the interaction method and routing; this skill defines the hearing content and pass conditions.
Register these steps before starting and record each step's evidence as it completes:
| Step | Action | Completion evidence |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | State the scope facts the analysis produced, then separately what they imply for the requirement | Facts listed with the analysis output they came from |
| 2 | Ask about the fields below ready, at most two questions per message | One question per field below ready |
| 3 | Record each answer as that field's value | The value uses wording the user supplied, not wording the hearing offered |
| 4 | Re-ask once when a recorded value still fails its pass condition, then mark the field weak-but-explicit when the user agrees to leave the second answer as it stands | Two recorded answers, or the user's agreement to stop |
| 5 | Hand the record to the step that judges the fields | An updated record returned from that step |
Step 3's evidence is what keeps the hearing reviewable: a value restating the hearing's own candidates fails it, so the user's judgment survives however the question was put.
| Carrier | Holds | Written by |

Use when a requirement enters a workflow, before design begins. --- # Requirement Convergence ## Purpose Requirements arrive bloated, ambiguous, or aimed at the wrong outcome. A capable model reconciles all three into a coherent plan and builds it faithfully — delivering exactly what was asked for when what was asked for was wrong. This skill converges **what to build**. How to build it, and which documents the change requires, are settled after the what is. ## Convergence Fields | Field | Pass condition | |-------|----------------| | `outcome` | One observable result. A requirement that does not serve it is excess. | | `requirements[]` | Every build-relevant item labeled `current-state` or `desired-future`. | | `nonGoals[]` | Authored by the user, or the user stated there are none. | | `cost` | A band with the structural evidence that places it, plus the unknowns that remain. | `cost` is a rough band, not the effort estimate a work plan schedules against; requirements cannot support person-days. Its unknowns carry more decision weight than its size. Keep request signals classified as evaluation requests, speculative ideas, or prescribed mechanisms in active convergence context as judgment-only candidates. `requirements[]` and durable documents receive a candidate only after explicit user confirmation. Each field carries a readiness label: `ready`, `weak`, or `weak-but-explicit` (weak, and the user agreed to leave it unresolved). Only the user sets `weak-but-explicit`. Requirements are converged when every applicable field is `ready` or `weak-but-explicit`. Judgment rules per field: [references/criteria.md](references/criteria.md). ## Hearing Protocol Run the hearing after scope analysis has produced the facts needed to judge the convergence fields. The workflow using this skill owns the interaction method and routing; this skill defines the hearing content and pass conditions. Register these steps before starting and record each step's evidence as it completes: | Step | Action | Completion evidence | |------|--------|---------------------| | 1 | State the scope facts the analysis produced, then separately what they imply for the requirement | Facts listed with the analysis output they came from | | 2 | Ask about the fields below `ready`, at most two questions per message | One question per field below `ready` | | 3 | Record each answer as that field's value | The value uses wording the user supplied, not wording the hearing offered | | 4 | Re-ask once when a recorded value still fails its pass condition, then mark the field `weak-but-explicit` when the user agrees to leave the second answer as it stands | Two recorded answers, or the user's agreement to stop | | 5 | Hand the record to the step that judges the fields | An updated record returned from that step | Step 3's evidence is what keeps the hearing reviewable: a value restating the hearing's own candidates fails it, so the user's judgment survives however the question was put. ## Storage Protocol | Carrier | Holds | Written by | |---------|-------|------------| | The convergence record in the judging step's output | Every field with its readiness label | The judging step | | PRD `Success Criteria` and `Future / Out of Scope` | `outcome`; user-authored `nonGoals` | The PRD production step | | Design Doc `Requirement Convergence` | The same when no PRD exists, and the fields left `weak-but-explicit` in every case | The Design Doc production step | A flow that produces neither document carries the record in its own context to the next step. ## Reference Protocol (For Downstream Consumers) 1. Read the convergence record from the prompt. 2. Treat `nonGoals` as excluded from the current change and `desired-future` requirements as buildable scope. Evaluation requests, speculative ideas, and prescribed mechanisms that were not promoted create no downstream obligation; an accepted ADR may retain evaluated options as decision history. 3. Treat a `weak-but-explicit` field as a recorded open question rather than a settled decision. When work depends on it, return the missing decision and its effect to the owning workflow. ## Quality Checklist - [ ] Scope facts were presented before questions were asked - [ ] `nonGoals` came from the user, or the user stated there are none - [ ] Every applicable field is `ready`, or `weak-but-explicit` by the user's agreement ## References - [references/criteria.md](references/criteria.md) — judgment rules per field, cost inputs, challenge intensity, solution-in-disguise test
