# Groom

> Use when starting work on a feature or change for a project that already has capstone docs - "new feature", "add a feature", "implement X", "build X", "design a feature", "spec it out", "flesh out", "refine this idea", "let's work on X" - a doc-grounded one-question-at-a-time interview producing a traceable feature spec in docs/capstone/features/, the first stage of the feature chain before plan and implement. Not whole-product discovery (mockup), not the greenfield pipeline (start); to carry one feature from idea to working code in a single run use feature.
