+# Tech-Spec Workflow - Context-Aware Technical Planning (quick-flow)
+
+<workflow>
+
+<critical>The workflow execution engine is governed by: {project-root}/.bmad/core/tasks/workflow.xml</critical>
+<critical>You MUST have already loaded and processed: {installed_path}/workflow.yaml</critical>
+<critical>Communicate all responses in {communication_language} and language MUST be tailored to {user_skill_level}</critical>
+<critical>Generate all documents in {document_output_language}</critical>
+<critical>This is quick-flow efforts - tech-spec with context-rich story generation</critical>
+<critical>Quick Flow: tech-spec + epic with 1-5 stories (always generates epic structure)</critical>
+<critical>LIVING DOCUMENT: Write to tech-spec.md continuously as you discover - never wait until the end</critical>
+<critical>CONTEXT IS KING: Gather ALL available context before generating specs</critical>
+<critical>DOCUMENT OUTPUT: Technical, precise, definitive. Specific versions only. User skill level ({user_skill_level}) affects conversation style ONLY, not document content.</critical>
+<critical>Input documents specified in workflow.yaml input_file_patterns - workflow engine handles fuzzy matching, whole vs sharded document discovery automatically</critical>
+<critical>⚠️ ABSOLUTELY NO TIME ESTIMATES - NEVER mention hours, days, weeks, months, or ANY time-based predictions. AI has fundamentally changed development speed - what once took teams weeks/months can now be done by one person in hours. DO NOT give ANY time estimates whatsoever.</critical>
+<critical>⚠️ CHECKPOINT PROTOCOL: After EVERY <template-output> tag, you MUST follow workflow.xml substep 2c: SAVE content to file immediately → SHOW checkpoint separator (━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━) → DISPLAY generated content → PRESENT options [a]Advanced Elicitation/[c]Continue/[p]Party-Mode/[y]YOLO → WAIT for user response. Never batch saves or skip checkpoints.</critical>

+"I'm going to gather all available context about your project before we dive into the technical spec. The following content has been auto-loaded:
+
+- Product briefs and research: {product_brief_content}, {research_content}
+- Brownfield codebase documentation: {document_project_content} (loaded via INDEX_GUIDED strategy)
+- Your project's tech stack and dependencies
+- Existing code patterns and structure
+
+This ensures the tech-spec is grounded in reality and gives developers everything they need."
+</action>
+
+<action>**PHASE 1: Load Existing Documents**
+
+Search for and load (using dual-strategy: whole first, then sharded):
+
+1. **Product Brief:**
+   - Search pattern: {output*folder}/\_brief*.md
+   - Sharded: {output*folder}/\_brief*/index.md
+   - If found: Load completely and extract key context
+
+2. **Research Documents:**
+   - Search pattern: {output*folder}/\_research*.md
+   - Sharded: {output*folder}/\_research*/index.md
+   - If found: Load completely and extract insights
+
+3. **Document-Project Output (CRITICAL for brownfield):**
+   - Always check: {output_folder}/index.md
+   - If found: This is the brownfield codebase map - load ALL shards!
+   - Extract: File structure, key modules, existing patterns, naming conventions
+
+Create a summary of what was found and ask user if there are other documents or information to consider before proceeding:
+
+- List of loaded documents
+- Key insights from each
+- Brownfield vs greenfield determination
+  </action>
+
+<action>**PHASE 2: Intelligently Detect Project Stack**
+
+Use your comprehensive knowledge as a coding-capable LLM to analyze the project:
+
+**Discover Setup Files:**
+
+- Search {project-root} for dependency manifests (package.json, requirements.txt, Gemfile, go.mod, Cargo.toml, composer.json, pom.xml, build.gradle, pyproject.toml, etc.)
+- Adapt to ANY project type - you know the ecosystem conventions
+
+**Extract Critical Information:**
+
+1. Framework name and EXACT version (e.g., "React 18.2.0", "Django 4.2.1")
+2. All production dependencies with specific versions
+3. Dev tools and testing frameworks (Jest, pytest, ESLint, etc.)
+4. Available build/test scripts
+5. Project type (web app, API, CLI, library, etc.)
+
+**Assess Currency:**
+
+- Identify if major dependencies are outdated (>2 years old)
+- Use WebSearch to find current recommended versions if needed
+- Note migration complexity in your summary
+
+**For Greenfield Projects:**
+<check if="field_type == greenfield">
+<action>Use WebSearch to discover current best practices and official starter templates</action>
+<action>Recommend appropriate starters based on detected framework (or user's intended stack)</action>
+<action>Present benefits conversationally: setup time saved, modern patterns, testing included</action>
+<ask>Would you like to use a starter template? (yes/no/show-me-options)</ask>
+<action>Capture preference and include in implementation stack if accepted</action>
+</check>
+
+**Trust Your Intelligence:**
+You understand project ecosystems deeply. Adapt your analysis to any stack - don't be constrained by examples. Extract what matters for developers.
+
+Store comprehensive findings as {{project_stack_summary}}
+</action>
+
+<action>**PHASE 3: Brownfield Codebase Reconnaissance** (if applicable)
+
+<check if="field_type == brownfield OR document-project output found">
+
+Analyze the existing project structure:
+
+1. **Directory Structure:**
+   - Identify main code directories (src/, lib/, app/, components/, services/)
+   - Note organization patterns (feature-based, layer-based, domain-driven)
+   - Identify test directories and patterns
+
+2. **Code Patterns:**
+   - Look for dominant patterns (class-based, functional, MVC, microservices)
+   - Identify naming conventions (camelCase, snake_case, PascalCase)
+   - Note file organization patterns
+
+3. **Key Modules/Services:**
+   - Identify major modules or services already in place
+   - Note entry points (main.js, app.py, index.ts)
+   - Document important utilities or shared code
+
+4. **Testing Patterns & Standards (CRITICAL):**
+   - Identify test framework in use (from package.json/requirements.txt)
+   - Note test file naming patterns (.test.js, test.py, .spec.ts, Test.java)
+   - Document test organization (tests/, **tests**, spec/, test/)
+   - Look for test configuration files (jest.config.js, pytest.ini, .rspec)
+   - Check for coverage requirements (in CI config, test scripts)
+   - Identify mocking/stubbing libraries (jest.mock, unittest.mock, sinon)
+   - Note assertion styles (expect, assert, should)
+
+5. **Code Style & Conventions (MUST CONFORM):**
+   - Check for linter config (.eslintrc, .pylintrc, rubocop.yml)
+   - Check for formatter config (.prettierrc, .black, .editorconfig)
+   - Identify code style:
+     - Semicolons: yes/no (JavaScript/TypeScript)
+     - Quotes: single/double
+     - Indentation: spaces/tabs, size
+     - Line length limits
+   - Import/export patterns (named vs default, organization)
+   - Error handling patterns (try/catch, Result types, error classes)
+   - Logging patterns (console, winston, logging module, specific formats)
+   - Documentation style (JSDoc, docstrings, YARD, JavaDoc)
+
+Store this as {{existing_structure_summary}}

+
+**Discovery Approach:**
+Adapt your questioning style to the complexity:
+
+- For single-story changes: Focus on the specific problem, location, and approach
+- For multi-story features: Explore user value, integration strategy, and scope boundaries
+
+**Core Discovery Goals (accomplish through natural dialogue):**
+
+1. **The Problem/Need**
+   - What user or technical problem are we solving?
+   - Why does this matter now?
+   - What's the impact if we don't do this?
+
+2. **The Solution Approach**
+   - What's the proposed solution?
+   - How should this work from a user/system perspective?
+   - What alternatives were considered?
+
+3. **Integration & Location**
+   - <check if="brownfield">Where does this fit in the existing codebase?</check>
+   - What existing code/patterns should we reference or follow?
+   - What are the integration points?
+
+4. **Scope Clarity**
+   - What's IN scope for this work?
+   - What's explicitly OUT of scope (future work, not needed)?
+   - If multiple stories: What's MVP vs enhancement?
+
+5. **Constraints & Dependencies**
+   - Technical limitations or requirements?
+   - Dependencies on other systems, APIs, or services?
+   - Performance, security, or compliance considerations?
+
+6. **Success Criteria**
+   - How will we know this is done correctly?
+   - What does "working" look like?
+   - What edge cases matter?
+
+**Conversation Style:**
+
+- Be warm and collaborative, not interrogative
+- Ask follow-up questions based on their responses
+- Help them think through implications
+- Reference context from Phase 1 (existing code, stack, patterns)
+- Adapt depth to {{story_count}} complexity
+
+Synthesize discoveries into clear, comprehensive specifications.

+
+**What Makes This Tech-Spec Special:**
+
+The tech-spec is comprehensive enough to serve as the primary context document:
+
+- ✨ Brownfield codebase analysis (if applicable)
+- ✨ Exact framework and library versions from your project
+- ✨ Existing patterns and code references
+- ✨ Specific file paths and integration points
+- ✨ Complete developer resources
+
+**Next Steps:**
+
+**🎯 Recommended Path - Direct to Development:**
+
+Since the tech-spec is CONTEXT-RICH, you can often skip story-context generation!
+
+{{#if story_count == 1}}
+**For Your Single Story:**
+
+1. Ask DEV agent to run `dev-story`
+   - Select story-{epic-slug}-1.md
+   - Tech-spec provides all the context needed!
+
+💡 **Optional:** Only run `story-context` (SM agent) if this is unusually complex
+{{else}}
+**For Your {{story_count}} Stories - Iterative Approach:**
+
+1. **Start with Story 1:**
+   - Ask DEV agent to run `dev-story`
+   - Select story-{epic-slug}-1.md
+   - Tech-spec provides context
+
+2. **After Story 1 Complete:**
+   - Repeat for story-{epic-slug}-2.md
+   - Continue through story {{story_count}}
+
+💡 **Alternative:** Use `sprint-planning` (SM agent) to organize all stories as a coordinated sprint
+
+💡 **Optional:** Run `story-context` (SM agent) for complex stories needing additional context
+{{/if}}
+
+**Your Tech-Spec:**
+
+- 📄 Saved to: `{output_folder}/tech-spec.md`
+- Epic & Stories: `{output_folder}/epics.md` + `{sprint_artifacts}/`
+- Contains: All context, decisions, patterns, and implementation guidance
+- Ready for: Direct development!
+
+The tech-spec is your single source of truth! 🚀
