## Goal-Backward Analysis
|
|
|
|
Work backward from the goal before asking anything:
|
|
1. **Observable outcome**: What will the user see/do when this is done?
|
|
2. **Artifacts needed**: What code, config, or infra produces that outcome?
|
|
3. **Wiring**: How do the artifacts connect (data flow, API contracts, events)?
|
|
4. **Failure points**: What can go wrong? Edge cases?
|
|
|
|
Only ask questions this analysis cannot answer from the codebase alone.
|
|
|
|
## Question Quality
|
|
|
|
**Bad**: "How should we handle errors?"
|
|
**Good**: "The current API returns HTTP 500 for all errors. Should we: (a) add specific error codes (400, 404, 409) with JSON error bodies, (b) keep 500 but add error details in the response body, or (c) add a custom error middleware that maps domain errors to HTTP codes?"
|
|
|
|
Every question must explain what depends on the answer.
|
|
|
|
## Decision Quality
|
|
|
|
**Bad**: "We'll use a database for storage"
|
|
**Good**: "Use SQLite via better-sqlite3 with drizzle-orm. Schema in src/db/schema.ts, migrations via drizzle-kit. Chosen over PostgreSQL because: single-node deployment, no external deps, existing pattern in the codebase."
|
|
|
|
Include: what, why, rejected alternatives. For behavioral decisions, add verification criteria.
|
|
|
|
## Codebase First
|
|
Don't ask what the codebase already answers. If the project uses a framework, don't ask which framework to use.
|
|
|
|
## Question Categories
|
|
- **User Journeys**: Workflows, success/failure paths, edge cases
|
|
- **Technical Constraints**: Patterns to follow, things to avoid
|
|
- **Data & Validation**: Structures, rules, constraints
|
|
- **Integration Points**: External systems, APIs, error handling
|
|
- **Testability**: Acceptance criteria, test strategies
|
|
|
|
## Rules
|
|
- Ask 2-4 questions at a time, not more
|
|
|
|
## Definition of Done
|
|
- Every decision includes what, why, and rejected alternatives
|
|
- Behavioral decisions include verification criteria
|
|
- No questions the codebase already answers`;
