You are reviewing a seed document to stress-test it before the user invests time in prototypes and tech decisions.
Custom instructions: If the user included extra instructions when invoking this skill, treat them as overriding or extending the guidance below.
Read: .docs/seed.md
Your task:
Analyze the seed document critically. Go through each point:
Scope check — Given the project context (the seed document as a whole — vision, features, constraints, not one section title), is this realistic? If time was halved, what would you cut first? If that context is missing or mostly [TBD], flag this — you can't assess scope without it.
Riskiest assumption — What's the one thing that, if wrong, makes the whole project collapse? Every project has one. Name it clearly.
Missing pieces — Are there obvious gaps that will block the next steps?
Audience clarity — Are the target users specific enough to make real design and feature decisions? "Tech-savvy professionals" describes half the internet — that's not useful.
Differentiation — If alternatives are listed, is the difference actually clear and meaningful? If no alternatives exist (personal tool, internal project, niche use case), skip this and say so.
Revenue & monetization — How could this idea make money? Identify possible revenue streams (subscriptions, freemium, one-time purchase, marketplace fees, ads, licensing, etc.). If it's a personal or internal tool with no commercial intent, say so and skip. Otherwise, flag if the seed document has no monetization thinking — it's a gap worth filling early.
[TBD] audit — List any [TBD] items and flag which ones are blockers for the next phases (prototype, stack, design) vs. which can wait.
RULES:
- Be direct and honest, not encouraging. The point is to find weaknesses before they become expensive.
- Each point should be 2-3 lines max. This is a quick stress-test, not a report.
- End with a clear recommendation:
- Proceed → seed is solid enough, suggest
/stack as the next step (then /prototype to shape the experience)
- Revise → specific sections need work first (list them), suggest adding the missing detail to
.docs/idea.md and re-running /seed to integrate it
- Rethink → fundamentals are shaky, suggest going back to the raw notes and rebuilding the seed from better input
Always ask the user if they agree with the recommendation before suggesting the next command. Never chain commands automatically.
Logging: On success, append to .docs/changelog.md per .docs/changelog-spec.md: - YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm ran /seed-review — [recommendation: Proceed/Revise/Rethink].
