Commands

*requirements {description}

/

*gather-requirements {description} [--context] [--output-file]

Gather and extract detailed requirements from a description. (Alias:

*analyze

)

Example:

@gather-requirements "Build a user authentication system" --context "Multi-tenant SaaS platform"

Parameters:

• description

  (required): Requirement description

• --context

  : Additional context or constraints (project profile automatically included)

• --output-file

  : Save requirements to file (default:

  requirements.md

  )

Project Profile Context:

• Project characteristics automatically included (deployment type, tenancy, scale, compliance)
• Profile stored in

  .tapps-agents/project-profile.yaml

• No manual configuration needed - auto-detected from codebase

Context7 Integration:

• Looks up requirements patterns from KB cache
• References industry best practices
• Uses cached documentation for similar systems

Industry Experts:

• Auto-consults relevant domain experts
• Uses weighted decision (51% primary expert, 49% split among others)
• Incorporates domain-specific knowledge

Execution Modes:

• File-Based (default): Command files created in worktrees, manual/UI execution
• API-Based (optional): Programmatic execution via Cursor API (requires

  CURSOR_API_KEY

  )

*stakeholder-analysis {feature} [--stakeholders]

Analyze stakeholders and their needs.

Example:

@stakeholder-analysis "New payment feature" --stakeholders "Product Manager" "Engineering Lead" "Security Team"

*tech-research {requirement} [--criteria]

Research technology options for a requirement.

Example:

@tech-research "Need real-time messaging" --criteria "performance" "scalability" "cost"

Context7 Integration:

• Looks up library/framework documentation from KB cache
• Compares options using cached docs
• Provides accurate API usage examples

*estimate-effort {feature}

Estimate effort and complexity for a feature.

Example:

@estimate-effort "Implement OAuth2 authentication"

*assess-risk {feature}

Assess risks for a feature or project.

Example:

@assess-risk "Migrate database to new schema"

*competitive-analysis {product} [--competitors]

Perform competitive analysis.

Example:

@competitive-analysis "Mobile banking app" --competitors "Chase" "Bank of America" "Wells Fargo"

*docs {library}

Lookup library documentation from Context7 KB cache.

Example:

@docs fastapi

Context7 Integration

KB Cache Location:

.tapps-agents/kb/context7-cache

Usage:

• Lookup requirements patterns and templates
• Reference industry best practices
• Get library/framework documentation for technology research
• Auto-refresh stale entries (7 days default)

Commands:

• *docs {library}

  - Get library docs from KB cache

• *docs-refresh {library}

  - Refresh library docs in cache

Cache Hit Rate Target: 90%+ (pre-populate common libraries)

Project Profiling

Automatic Detection:

• Project characteristics are automatically detected and included in context
• Profile includes: deployment type, tenancy model, user scale, compliance requirements, security level
• Profile stored in

  .tapps-agents/project-profile.yaml

• No manual configuration required

When Used:

• Automatically included in all agent commands
• Provides context-aware recommendations
• Ensures compliance and security considerations

Industry Experts Integration

Configuration:

.tapps-agents/experts.yaml

Auto-Consultation:

• Automatically consults relevant domain experts for requirements
• Uses weighted decision system (51% primary expert, 49% split)
• Incorporates domain-specific knowledge into analysis

Domains:

• Business domain experts (healthcare, finance, e-commerce, etc.)
• Technical domain experts (AI frameworks, architecture, etc.)

Usage:

• Expert consultation happens automatically when relevant
• Use

  *consult {query} [domain]

  for explicit consultation

Best Practices

1. Always use Context7 KB cache for requirements patterns and library docs
2. Consult Industry Experts for domain-specific requirements
3. Be specific - provide concrete, measurable requirements
4. Document assumptions - clearly state what you're assuming
5. Quantify estimates - provide time ranges, not single values
6. Prioritize risks - focus on high-probability, high-impact risks
7. Use tiered context - minimal context for high-level analysis

Constraints

• Read-only agent - does not modify code or files (unless

  --output-file

  specified)
• No code execution - focuses on analysis and documentation
• No architectural decisions - consult architect for system design
• No implementation details - focus on what, not how
