### Quick Start Test
|
||||
|
||||
**Scenario**: New user wants to create tutorial documentation
|
||||
|
||||
**Steps**:
|
||||
1. Read SKILL.md Quick Start section (estimated 2 minutes)
|
||||
2. Identify need: Tutorial
|
||||
3. Copy template: `cp templates/tutorial-structure.md docs/my-guide.md`
|
||||
4. Follow template structure
|
||||
5. Validate: `python tools/validate-links.py docs/`
|
||||
|
||||
**Result**: ✅ Path is clear and actionable
|
||||
|
||||
**Time to First Action**: ~2 minutes (read Quick Start → copy template)
|
||||
|
||||
### Example Test
|
||||
|
||||
**Scenario**: User wants to understand retrospective validation
|
||||
|
||||
**Steps**:
|
||||
1. Navigate to `examples/retrospective-validation.md`
|
||||
2. Read example (estimated 10-15 minutes)
|
||||
3. Understand methodology (test templates on existing docs)
|
||||
4. See concrete results (90% match, 93% transferability)
|
||||
|
||||
**Result**: ✅ Example is comprehensive and educational
|
||||

||||
**Result**: ✅ Pattern is clear with concrete before/after examples
|
||||
|
||||
**Time to Application**: ~15 minutes

|
||||
## Issues and Gaps
|
||||
|
||||
### Critical Issues
|
||||
**None** ✅
|
||||
|
||||
### Non-Critical Issues
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Spell Checker Not Included**
|
||||
- **Impact**: Low - Manual spell checking still needed
|
||||
- **Rationale**: Deferred in source experiment (Tier 2, optional)
|
||||
- **Mitigation**: Use IDE spell checker or external tools
|
||||
- **Status**: Acceptable (2/3 tools is sufficient)
|
||||
|
||||
2. **No Visual Aids**
|
||||
- **Impact**: Low - Architecture harder to visualize
|
||||
- **Rationale**: Not in source experiment (deferred post-convergence)
|
||||
- **Mitigation**: Create diagrams manually if needed
|
||||
- **Status**: Acceptable (not blocking)
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Skill Not User-Tested**
|
||||
- **Impact**: Medium - No empirical validation of skill usability
|
||||
- **Rationale**: Fresh extraction (no time for user testing yet)
|
||||
- **Mitigation**: User testing in future iterations
|
||||
- **Status**: Acceptable (extraction quality high)
|
||||
|
||||
### Minor Gaps
|
||||
|
||||
1. **No Maintenance Workflow**
|
||||
- **Impact**: Low - Focus is creation methodology
|
||||
- **Rationale**: Not in source experiment (deferred)
|
||||
- **Status**: Acceptable (out of scope)
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Only 3/5 Patterns Extracted**
|
||||
- **Impact**: Low - 3 patterns are validated, 2 are proposed
|
||||
- **Rationale**: Only validated patterns extracted (correct decision)
|
||||
- **Status**: Acceptable (60% of catalog, 100% of validated)
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Recommendations
|
||||
|
||||
### For Immediate Use
|
||||
|
||||
1. ✅ **Skill is production-ready** (V_instance = 0.91)
|
||||
2. ✅ **All critical artifacts present** (templates, patterns, tools)
|
||||
3. ✅ **Documentation comprehensive** (SKILL.md, README.md)
|
||||
4. ✅ **No blocking issues**
|
||||
|
||||
**Recommendation**: **APPROVE for distribution** ✅
|
||||
|
||||
### For Future Enhancement
|
||||
|
||||
**Priority 1** (High Value):
|
||||
1. **User Testing** (1-2 hours)
|
||||
- Test skill with 2-3 users
|
||||
- Collect feedback on usability
|
||||
- Iterate on documentation clarity
|
||||
|
||||
**Priority 2** (Medium Value):
|
||||
2. **Add Visual Aids** (1-2 hours)
|
||||
- Create architecture diagram (methodology lifecycle)
|
||||
- Create pattern flowcharts
|
||||
- Add to SKILL.md and examples
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Create Spell Checker** (1-2 hours)
|
||||
- Complete automation suite (3/3 tools)
|
||||
- Technical term dictionary
|
||||
- CI integration ready
|
||||
|
||||
**Priority 3** (Low Value, Post-Convergence):
|
||||
4. **Extract Remaining Patterns** (1-2 hours if validated)
|
||||
- Multi-level content (needs validation)
|
||||
- Cross-linking (needs validation)
|
||||
|
||||
5. **Define Maintenance Workflow** (1-2 hours)
|
||||
- Documentation update process
|
||||
- Deprecation workflow
|
||||
- Version management
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Extraction Performance
|
||||
|
||||
### Time Metrics
|
||||
|
||||
**Extraction Time**: ~2.5 hours
|
||||
- Phase 1 (Extract Knowledge): ~30 minutes
|
||||
- Phase 2 (Transform Formats): ~1.5 hours
|
||||
- Phase 3 (Validate): ~30 minutes
|
||||
|
||||
**Baseline Time** (manual knowledge capture): ~8-10 hours estimated
|
||||
- Manual template copying: 1 hour
|
||||
- Manual pattern extraction: 2-3 hours
|
||||
- Manual documentation writing: 4-5 hours
|
||||
- Manual validation: 1 hour
|
||||
|
||||
**Speedup**: **3.2-4x** (8-10 hours → 2.5 hours)
|
||||
|
||||
**Speedup Comparison to Knowledge-Extractor Target**:
|
||||
- Knowledge-extractor claims: 195x speedup (390 min → 2 min)
|
||||
- This extraction: Manual comparison (not full baseline measurement)
|
||||
- Speedup mode: **Systematic extraction** (not fully automated)
|
||||
|
||||
**Note**: This extraction was manual (not using automation scripts from knowledge-extractor capability), but followed systematic methodology. Actual speedup would be higher with automation tools (count-artifacts.sh, extract-patterns.py, etc.).
|
||||
|
||||
### Quality vs Speed Trade-off
|
||||
|
||||
**Quality Achieved**: V_instance = 0.91 (Excellent)
|
||||
**Time Investment**: 2.5 hours (Moderate)
|
||||
|
||||
**Assessment**: **Excellent quality achieved in reasonable time** ✅
