Perform a read-only consistency analysis across all available change artifacts.
Input: Optionally specify a change name. If omitted, infer from context or ask.
This skill makes no file modifications.
Steps
- Load artifacts Load what exists under
specs/changes/<name>/: Also load FRAMEWORK.md as the governing principles baseline.
- spec.md (required) - plan.md (if present) - tasks.md (if present)
- Run consistency checks Analyze across these dimensions: Dimension What to check Coverage Every user story in spec.md has corresponding tasks in tasks.md Alignment Plan architecture matches spec goals and constraints FRAMEWORK.md compliance No dependency rule violations, no anemic domain model, ports present for external dependencies Duplication Overlapping requirements or tasks Ambiguity Vague terms without measurable criteria Terminology drift Same concept named differently across artifacts Orphans Tasks with no corresponding requirement, or requirements with no tasks
- Produce findings Output a structured findings table:
## Analysis: <change-name> ### Findings | ID | Severity | Dimension | Description | Location | |----|----------|-----------|-------------|----------| ### Coverage Summary | Requirement | Task IDs | |-------------|----------| ### FRAMEWORK.md Violations <List any violations. CRITICAL severity — must be fixed before proceeding.> ### Metrics - Total findings: N - Critical: N | High: N | Medium: N | Low: N ### Recommended Next Actions <Ordered list of what to fix.>Severity: CRITICAL (FRAMEWORK.md violation) > HIGH > MEDIUM > LOW.
Output
After the analysis:
- If CRITICAL findings exist: "Fix FRAMEWORK.md violations before proceeding. Do not use the
spec-kit-tasksorspec-kit-implementskills until these are resolved." - If no critical findings: "Use the
spec-kit-tasksskill to generate the implementation task list."
Guardrails
- Read-only. Never modify any file.
- FRAMEWORK.md violations are always CRITICAL — never downgrade or ignore them.
- Deterministic: re-running on the same artifacts produces the same findings.
