- →Create external reference directory
- →Provide next steps for architecture governance
How it works
The skill checks for an existing projects directory and creates the required global policies and external reference subdirectories.

About this skill
ArcKit Project Initialization
User Input
$ARGUMENTS
Instructions
-
Check if project structure already exists:
- Look for
projects/directory in the current working directory - If it exists, inform the user and ask if they want to continue
- Look for
-
Create the project structure:
- Create directories
projects/000-global/policies/andprojects/000-global/external/(these will be created automatically when saving files with the Write tool, or use Bashmkdirif needed)
- Create directories
-
Provide next steps:
ArcKit project structure initialized:
projects/
├── 000-global/
│ ├── policies/ (organization-wide policies)
│ └── external/ (external reference documents)
Next steps:
1. Run $arckit-principles to create architecture principles
2. Run $arckit-stakeholders to analyze stakeholders for a project
3. Run $arckit-requirements to create requirements
Individual projects will be created automatically in numbered directories (001-*, 002-*).
How it compares
It automates the creation of a specific enterprise architecture directory layout instead of requiring manual folder setup.

brainstorming
obra
Use when creating or developing, before writing code or implementation plans - refines rough ideas into fully-formed designs through collaborative questioning, alternative exploration, and incremental validation. Don't use during clear 'mechanical' processes
create-plan
antinomyhq
Generate detailed implementation plans for complex tasks. Creates comprehensive strategic plans in Markdown format with objectives, step-by-step implementation tasks using checkbox format, verification criteria, risk assessments, and alternative approaches. Use when users need thorough analysis and structured planning before implementation, when breaking down complex features into actionable steps, or when they explicitly ask for a plan, roadmap, or strategy. Strictly planning-focused with no code modifications.
project-planner
adrianpuiu
Comprehensive project planning and documentation generator for software projects. Creates structured requirements documents, system design documents, and task breakdown plans with implementation tracking. Use when starting a new project, defining specifications, creating technical designs, or breaking down complex systems into implementable tasks. Supports user story format, acceptance criteria, component design, API specifications, and hierarchical task decomposition with requirement traceability.
confidence-check
SuperClaude-Org
Pre-implementation confidence assessment (≥90% required). Use before starting any implementation to verify readiness with duplicate check, architecture compliance, official docs verification, OSS references, and root cause identification.
system-design
lagz0ne
Use when designing, architecting, or planning a new system from requirements or ideas - transforms concepts into navigable design catalog using EventStorming methodology, Mermaid diagrams, and progressive elaboration through 5 phases (Requirements, Big Picture, Processes, Data/Flows, Integration)
spec-kit-workflow
jmanhype
Guides specification-driven development workflow. Automatically invoked when discussing new features, specifications, technical planning, or implementation tasks. Ensures proper workflow phases (specify → clarify → plan → checklist → tasks → analyze → implement).
