032 Architecture Adr Non Functional Requirements Agent Skill

Facilitates conversational discovery to create Architectural Decision Records (ADRs) for non-functional requirements using the ISO/IEC 25010:2023 quality model. Use when the user wants to document quality attributes, NFR decisions, security/performance/scalability architecture, or design systems with measurable quality criteria. This should trigger for requests such as Create ADR for Non-functional requirements; Document Non-functional requirements; Capture Non-functional requirements; Generate Non-functional requirements in an ADR; Create ADR for performance scalability or security requirements.

Create ADRs for Non-Functional Requirements

Guide stakeholders through a structured conversation to uncover and document architectural decisions for quality attributes using the ISO/IEC 25010:2023 quality model. This is an interactive SKILL. The ADR documents the outcome of the conversation, not the conversation itself. Act as an architecture consultant: challenge-first, consultative, adaptive. Use only the current conversation and repository files explicitly available in the current session.

What is covered in this Skill?

  • Challenge-first opening: ISO 25010:2023 quality characteristics (Functional Suitability, Performance Efficiency, Compatibility, Reliability, Security, Maintainability, Flexibility, Safety)
  • Understanding the challenge: drivers, constraints, system context
  • Quality-specific deep dive tailored to primary NFR category
  • Solution exploration and trade-off preferences
  • Decision synthesis and validation before ADR creation
  • ADR document generation with Quality Metrics & Success Criteria

Constraints

Use challenge-first, consultative discovery in small batches, build on answers, tailor to NFR category. Only create ADR after thorough conversation and user confirmation.

  • MANDATORY: Use the local shell date command before starting to get accurate timestamps for the ADR
  • MUST: Load the bundled reference template during the current session; ignore prior-session content unless the user provides it again
  • MUST: Start with challenge-first opening (ISO 25010:2023 quality characteristics)
  • MUST: Pose one or two discovery questions at a time; never all at once
  • MUST: Validate summary with user (Does this accurately capture your quality needs?) before proposing ADR creation
  • MUST: Wait for user to confirm proceed before generating the ADR

When to use this skill

  • Create ADR for Non-functional requirements
  • Document Non-functional requirements
  • Capture Non-functional requirements
  • Generate Non-functional requirements in an ADR
  • Create ADR for performance scalability or security requirements

Workflow

  • Get current date

Use the local shell date command before discovery and use it for ADR timestamps.

  • Load reference and open with quality challenge

Load references/032-architecture-adr-non-functional-requirements.md from this skill and begin with the challenge-first ISO 25010:2023 quality characteristics framing.

  • Conduct consultative NFR discovery

Guide discovery in small batches to elicit drivers, constraints, quality priorities, options, and trade-off preferences tailored to the primary NFR category.

Step constraints:

  • Never ask all discovery questions at once
  • Validate summary with user before proposing ADR generation
  • Generate ADR after explicit confirmation

Only after user confirms proceed, create the ADR including measurable Quality Metrics and Success Criteria.

Matplotlib
by christophacham
×3

Low-level plotting library for full customization. Use when you need fine-grained control over every plot element, creating novel plot types, or integrating with specific scientific workflows. Export to PNG/PDF/SVG for publication. For quick statistical plots use seaborn; for interactive plots use plotly; for publication-ready multi-panel figures with journal styling, use scientific-visualization.

Create stunning, animation-rich HTML presentations from scratch or by converting PowerPoint files. Use when the user wants to build a presentation, convert a PPT/PPTX to web, or create slides for a talk/pitch. Helps non-designers discover their aesthetic through visual exploration rather than abstract choices.

PPTX HTML Fidelity Audit
by nexu-io

Audit a python-pptx export against its source HTML deck, identify layout/content drift (footer overflow, cropped content, missing italic/em, lost styling, off-rhythm spacing), and re-export with strict footer-rail + cursor-flow layout discipline. Use this skill whenever the user has a .pptx that was generated from an HTML slide deck and asks to compare/audit/verify/fix the export — including phrases like "compare ppt with html", "fidelity audit", "fix the pptx", "ppt is cut off", "footer overlap", "italic missing in pptx", "re-export the deck", "pptx-html-fidelity-audit", or any case where a python-pptx → HTML round-trip needs verification or repair. Also trigger when the user shows you a deck.html and a deck.pptx side by side and is debugging visual differences.
